Adam, that’s why you have to do your research for the price of everything before you buy, and if possible bring a local Vietnamese with you when you buy something big. You should read tips on how to avoid common scams in Vietnam. I hope you have a good experience in VN and come back in the future. Thanks for your videos. I enjoy watching them.

This is not a scam. This is the business culture of Vietnam. Sellers set prices for their products, often higher than their own value. The buyer has the right to pay a lower price. The sale and purchase is mutually agreed upon by both parties. Fraud is when you are deceived about the brand introduction, the condition of the product… so check the product carefully, go to reputable places… you should find out through the local address.

The genius of Vietnamese is that they are still able to sell these kind of bike. Just look around you, almost nobody drives these old style bikes in the country and there's a reason. Don't forget that backpackers don't decide to buy these old bike, Vietnamese choose for them 😉 hope everything will be ok.

And same story again and again with other tourist 😇😉 But the story doesn't end there. When foreigners realise they can't get a good price from local, they gonna sale to other tourists on Facebook and said 'it's the best bike I ever had' 'an 'indestructible machine' 'most reliable motorcycle ever' when they know it's the biggest piece of garbage they ever had in there hand haha 😆

Là người Việt Nam với kinh nghiệm và hiểu biết của tôi thì chiếc xe đó tôi sẽ chỉ mua với giá 7 triệu đồng là hợp lý. Ok tôi rất thích và hài lòng cách bạn mặc cả để tránh việc người bán nói thách ( đó là văn hóa mua bán của người Việt ). Dù bạn là người nước ngoài hay người bạn địa thì khi mua món đồ gì người ta cũng sẽ nói thách, nói quá giá trị thật và bạn cơ quyền trả giá thấp hơn. Bạn nên mặc cả trả giá thấp hơn nếu bạn muốn. 😁

Obviously this buyer doesnt have the slightest idea of what is the definition of a scam. Business 101, if buyer and seller agree on a price no matter how ridiculous or what not, it is dependent on buyer to due diligence. You agree on price, so how is it a scam?

6.5 millions for one bike is really cheap. And with that price you can only have low quality bike in Vietnam. Something like secondhand bike or bike with some damaged parts. And those bike look fancy with the gas tank actually very bad. It doesn't have the stable for you to travel in VietNam. I suggest you if you want to buy one secondhand bike in VN, You should look for those wave or future. Despite they don't have fancy looking, they are very stable and safe for you to ride.

you did great job negotiate it, for the guy say he not gonna pay more than 5m to buy it, he's bullshit, you can't go that low in the negotiation, just assume he right about the price, the seller may buy it for 4m but he not gonna sell it for 5m, he need to buy meats for his family :)) and the thing you call scam, it kind of technique to sell stuff here, showing you something nice with good price, then when you come they said they sold it already and introduce you something else :))

Hi Adam, Sorry for ur bad experience. Actually, there is a motorbike checking/analyzing service company that u can hire to check the second hand motorbike in Ho Chi Minh. It's suprised me because I didn't even know it existed until I watched a guy on KZfaq. They will send a staff to come with u to wherever u want to check the bike that u like. They will have a checklist to check everything precisely and tell u the bike's condition such as how far this bike has been rode (the fact is sometimes the number of kilometers shows on the bike is wrong because the seller reverted it to a smaller number in order to sell it as a higher price), they also tell u if there is any part replaced, etc and based on the bike's condition to tell u the approximate price that suited for that bike and recommend u should buy it or not, also what u need to do after u buy it. The fee for the service is around 150.000 VND or 150K in brief (I don't remember the price exactly). Moreover, the company also guarantees that they will pay u back all the motobike money if the bike is not as good as they analyzed. It's pretty cheap service and u don't get scam from the seller :v Not advertising, but if I want to buy a second hand motorbike in the future, I definately will use this service to get a bike with the money as its value and also has a guarantee from the company :))))))) I searched the guy video and found the company fb link if u want to use it in the future: facebook.com/kilu.vn I know there are many companies like this but I haven't searched yet. This is just my recommendation so u won't get scam next time u buy a second hand mortorbike. In my opinions, 8 millions for a second hand mortorbike is not expensive. Normally, they are around 15 - 20 millions. Depending on the bike's condition and u must check everything carefully before u buy it. Most of the bikes look new because they re-paint the exterior but the interior such as the engine is old and not at good condition. That's why u need to have some experience to check if they replace them or not. Or have some one who good at this go with u to prevent scamming. Peace
