Crikey--I would love easy customers like you. Frankly in your shoes I would have said.-Option 1 I pick up as I planned. or option 2 you give me further discount. Easy to justify too. Credit card rolls eom or loan interest starts etc.

Japanese car sales were up 30 percent in October.(on 2019's sales figures) The Shaken centres must have been busy. Still might take a while for the months of below average sales to balance out.
Another thing is the NZers that are coming back to Aotearoa probably want a better car that the usual back packer mobile.

"Prices at Japan’s used-car auctions increased in September 2020 and were 21 per cent above the baseline average for all of 2019, according to an industry newsletter circulated by Moana Blue. Data from five Japanese auctions shows selling prices in September this year increased about 7.2 per cent from August’s figures. On top of this, the average number of vehicles offered for sale each month in 2020 to date is 11 per cent less than the average for each month of 2019. Domestic demand for used vehicles in Japan before they get to auction appears to be one reason for a drop in those being offered. The sell rate for those going under the hammer is increasing, which is a sign of strong demand for what supply is available."

That 30% increase includes used vehicles. Which has pushed the price of cars in Japan up and availability down Keeping in mind that "this" situation was always going to happen anyway. C19 has made it worse but by cutting out 75% of used vehicles allowed into NZ you right away cause a major issue.

I was surprised to get $4,500 for not one but two 2006 Tiida sedans last week, so it wasn't a fluke. Both plain Jane's with zero features, not even a remote. I thought they were $3,995 to sell but gave it a shot at more and both sold in under a week. I guess used car prices are already on the way up.
