king buyer

[Guest reggin]

hello, just looking for any feedback on king buyer in Chiba, especially from people who have had any dealings with them, have found a vehicle on their site that i am thinking of importing to australia however just wanted to find out first if they are a respected company in japan, i have been told their prices are generally a little more expensive and the vehicle i am looking at probably does fit that measure, any feedback positive or negative would be appreciated, cheers guys!

Most people say they are scammers, dishonest....etc

do a search here and on the gtr.co.uk site and you'll find the info you want.

I wouldn't go by king buyer's website either, for some stupid reason the cars they list are usually sold by the time you get a response out of them. They also have a fair few hidden costs when buying stuff. They make their cars look good to the newbies and everyone has a toss over their pics, and they speak good english, but they hardly ever list a decent car with a decent price that's still available by the time the regular public see it on the website. They do send out cars a couple of weeks before hand to import agents n stuff though.

We've imported 2 cars I think for our clients because they were adament they wanted "king buyer cars with goodies" but we prefer to avoid them.

I looked at a white R32 GTR on the king buyer site just before i went to Japan, and funnily enough that very car cruised past me in a narrow japanese street.

I too have heard several interesting stories about them

Yeah basically unless it has new marked next to the listing you can be pretty sure that its already been sold- from my experience anyway
