RTX 300 owners - need some advice on a booking situation 😅
Hey everyone,
I booked my TVS RTX 300 back in April, and after waiting all these months, I finally got a call today saying my bike is ready at their storage facility.
The person who called me said that if I complete the payment, they can hand over the bike within this week itself.
The problem is… I honestly wasn't expecting the bike to arrive this early. 😅 I was mentally prepared for delivery around 6 months after booking, and currently I don't have the full amount ready.
I am 100% willing to take the bike, but I will only be financially ready around the 1st week of October, which is roughly 1.5 months from now.
I asked the person if they could hold the bike, but he said they can hold it for maximum 15 days, and not for a month or more.
So I'm trying to understand what options I have here.
My questions to fellow RTX owners:
1️⃣ Can I somehow request the dealer to hold my allotted bike for 1+ month?
Has anyone successfully negotiated something like this with their dealer?
2️⃣ Can I temporarily give up my current allocation?
For example, can I tell the dealer:
"Please allocate this bike to the next person in the waiting list, and give me another RTX 300 from the next lot when it arrives."
Is something like this practically possible?
3️⃣ Can I pay ₹20–30k now and generate the invoice, then pay the remaining amount in October?
Would that allow the dealer to hold the bike?
4️⃣ If an invoice is generated and I pay some amount, what happens if something unexpected happens later?
Is the amount paid against the invoice refundable, or can there be cancellation/refund issues?
5️⃣ What happens if I simply let this allocation go without personally cancelling my booking?
Will my booking automatically get cancelled after some period?
6️⃣ If I let this particular bike go, will my original booking continue?
Basically, can I get an RTX 300 from the next available lot instead of losing my booking completely?
Really looking for advice from people who've actually experienced this.
I don't want to cancel the RTX 300 - I just need another ~1.5 months to arrange the money.
If anyone has faced a similar situation with TVS/dealer allocation, please share exactly what you did and what happened afterward.
Would you hold the bike somehow, shift to the next allocation, or just let this one go?
Any advice would be hugely appreciated! ❤️
TL;DR: Booked RTX 300 in April → bike unexpectedly ready now → dealer says max 15-day hold → I can arrange full payment only by October 1st week. What are my options to preserve my booking/allocation?
