Pray that eight won’t increase price for the next two years!

Wonder why these shops need make limited quantity. If they aren't earning then why even bother setting up the listing?

 

[JAYSCS]

I am really confused how these Shopee discount. I go to Shopee DV Tech, only saw selling TPG top up and many mobile phones and accessories, no Eight top up. Other stores with Eight $88 top up no voucher or discount. Hock Mobile totally blank. I guess only those who knows know.

Or that those who know don't want to stay awake 24/7 trying to fulfill all the orders by deadline?

The long simbapore queues past few days might have scared more than buyers. All so rich, throwing in multiples of $60s and now $88s like no tomorrow.

Two lines, the wife and I. So technically 22 months, about 2 years.

I believe the shop need to top up the amount first to eight (shown as "Dealer balance" in their account). They may not have that much cash liquidity. Just 50 unit of 88$ will cost them 4400$.

Some of the shop will send the screenshot as proof after you buy from them. It will show how much balance they have.

On the contrary, it is to save $ as the plan price is slashed half and need not require any more spending in a while. Locking long term with cheap plan price is definitely better and different than locking long term expensive plan price with phone. Of cos, due to the affordability, the connection and stability may be compromised and should be expected not regret later.

As for Shopee, i really dunno how it plays to reap the best discount. Shopee did not provide any instructions on that, so really only those who knows know. You may like to advise how to play its rule?

Shopee? No idea. Not enough brain power to spare on figuring out their patterns.

That is why only those who knows know.

Actually not so bad what. Even if the 4g getting slower, you can swap to 5g anytime. It is still consider as "half-price" subscription due to this discount.
Btw, just use CDC at neighbourhood hp shop if you still have the balance. Easier to use 1 shot than pay for daily meal.

I'd say check with the seller beforehand unless you've done it with them before.
