Not sure how u get the 1.5% surcharge. Basically i only transact when there is offer for Qcoins. example 10% discounf for qcoins.

So basically currently the rate now = 100 qcoins = $145.

Using AMEX card will give u $130.50

so 1 qcoin = $1.305

Let say example the cost of a SSD is SGD$47.40. Using Qcoins is $33.18

so if you use $1.305 * $33.18 = $43.30.

you nett nett you save SGD4.

So end state if you buy qcoins and keep and the actual qcoins price keep increase, actually it give your existing qcoins "more value" than before.

of course the savings would be more significant if you buy a bigger price items or have a coupon tag to it.

Sorry but I dun understand this part. How u get $33.18 Qcoins?

one unit of Qcoin now costs SGD1.45.
But the items sold, when converted from SGD to Qcoin, uses an exchange rate of 1 Qcoin = SGD 1.4285

so, this surcharge per Qcoin is $1.45 - $1.4285 = $0.0215
which is about 1.5%

so really no point in buying Qcoin cos the qoo10 gift vouchers offers 2% discount,
unless if there’s Amex 10% off

I noted that as well. Not sure if it is a bug.

That's right, Darknite and Greatwent get what I was trying to say. So Amex 10% discount doesn't really give 10%. I actually gave you 8.5% discount only. Also before this increase when the buy rate is $142, I realized there were times where the rate you pay with coins was even higher at $1.44-$1.45 per coin, so we actually got a bonus then. But now that we are short-changed, I thought I should let everyone be aware of this.

It's always been the case. Now then you know? Qoo10 revised the buying of qcoin rates at the start of month. As for the rate conversion when you buy at Qoo10 using qcoins, it's always revised near the end of the month. Been like that since the start. There is a point of time where the qcoin conversion rate is better than the rate of buying qcoin. So you just have to do your comparison before buying.

Haha bro, exchanging $30 off $200 for the same $30 off $200 but with a shorter validity is funny. I doubt anyone will do that...

It's not a bug. It's the difference in the time they update the rates. Qcoin purchase rate is usually at the start of month and the conversion rate when using qcoin at qoo10 is usually end of month.

Lately, they have been hiding the coupons in one of the special banners. Today is under Home & Living Fair. When you are at the main page, there are 14 banners today, scroll to the 2nd page (ie.2/14).

Oe else you can try to search Jeju Wet Wipes. :)

Guys.. I bought an item during 9.9 but the status is still 'shipping requested'. Now I see the seller has reduced the price further. Is it possible to cancel the previous order and re-order? Will I get the refund back? I paid using qcoins previously on Qoo10.
