Buy More Save More Program in IBC

Buy More Save More - IBC Japan
Saw this one on the homepage bulletin when I logged to my account in the website IBC Japan. It’s called the Buy More Save More Program and from what I understand, it’s sort of a system they devised to appoint credit points for their buyers. So when you “buy more” vehicles, you “save more” by earning credits.

I made a quick browse through their table of points and basically, they’ve categorized buyers according to the frequency of purchase, i.e. number of vehicles bought per month. The credit amount is pegged at USD 40 per vehicle so if say, you buy more than 50 units, you should be able to enjoy up to USD 10,000 of credit or more. Not bad.

According to the site, the credit amount earned can be used as cash for future purchases. It’s nice to know that in this reward program, they don’t differentiate between cars from inventory and those bought from auction so I guess the Buy More Save More program applies to all of IBC’s stocks. The credit amount earned though will only last until one year after the close of the month they are last earned.

Plus, it’s good that they put a Buy More Save More credit report on the homepage each and every time you log in. That way you get an updated count on how many credits you’ve earned and also on the Buy More main page, you can see a credit history that lists all your credits earned and whether you’ve redeemed those credits.

There are loads of other conditions but, overall, this might be really advantageous for auto dealers. The systems awards those with frequent purchases so I guess it’s gonna be really useful for customers who either buy in bulk or buy regularly.

Browsing for UK Vehicles - IBC Japan


I found this website called IBC Japan and it mainly sells Japanese used cars. I expected it to have Japanese cars only but was a bit delighted to know that it also offers Singapore and Thailand stocks and even UK stocks.

Regarding UK stocks, the site fairly offers a variety of European makes and models. A quick browse through their UK inventory reveals regulars like Audis, BMWs, Mercedes Benzes, Range Rovers and Porsches ranging from years 2005 to present. Some units have their prices marked down.

But the site’s UK Auctions page is where I really found lots of UK vehicles. The number of available units is easily double or even triple compared to their UK inventory. They also provide a reasonable amount of accompanying images for each unit and every one comes with a downloadable condition report in PDF format. A few quick searches and I was able to view several sedans, SUVs, passenger types and commercial types, so it’s not bad.

It’s a requirement to sign up for an account in order to view the auctioned vehicles but I guess it is standard procedure for any other vehicle auction site out there. Besides, signing up for an account in IBC Japan doesn’t take too long. Also, I didn’t read the UK Auctions terms and conditions page in detail but I’m sure it’s the usual deposit requirements and stuff, but I’ll be reading it again later for sure.

Overall, this is cool. Diesel units are relatively not common among Japanese used cars for sale. So I think it’s really good to be able to browse through a good selection of diesel European cars already in stock or available for auction.
