Why people in Cambodia sell things and don't mention price?

This is where our community discusses almost anything! While we're mainly a Cambodia expat discussion forum and talk about expat life here, we debate about almost everything. Even if you're a tourist passing through Southeast Asia and want to connect with expatriates living and working in Cambodia, this is the first section of our site that you should check out. Our members start their own discussions or post links to other blogs and/or news articles they find interesting and want to chat about. So join in the fun and start new topics, or feel free to comment on anything our community members have already started! We also have some Khmer members here as well, but English is the main language used on CEO. You're welcome to have a look around, and if you decide you want to participate, you can become a part our international expat community by signing up for a free account.

Why people in Cambodia sell things and don't mention price?

Over and over. Rentals, cars, food, phones. Even expats on Facebook with restaurant specials. Do you really wanna have 10 people respond to your item for sale and ask you "how much"? Many times seller says "I'll send you (price) private message" ... Why not post the price????

Think about the seller! Most of the time, the caption goes something like "Camry 99% new from USA". We all know it's a 2007 Camry (therefore far from being new). We all know it was previously crashed (hence not "99%"). How can the seller get as much money as possible from you if he/ she lists the price?

You'll get used to it. It will take some time though. Don't lose sleep over it. There are more serious things in life.
