Wewe!!! You almost gave me a heart attack! I thought the ERC has increased the price of petrol by 15/= given that today is 14th. I thought they have changed dealers. I know they have been smoking some wet stuff but even laced with overpriced petrol that would have been too much!!! Never count on making a good sale. Have the purchase price be so attractive that even a mediocre sale gives good returns.

Two months straight with crude prices going up but pump prices in Kenya going down. waiting...ION - ERC employees have started posting on this thread. @McReggae - The clowns have failed an extremely simple exam. They give us the two month time lag bullshit story when prices are falling and when prices go up in February they are promptly loaded on to March prices!!! This bunch should be investigated!!! Some people must be eating some serious turkey! This is not chicken! Never count on making a good sale. Have the purchase price be so attractive that even a mediocre sale gives good returns.

Not the same in UG. Everyone here, in the investor forum at least, should by now be knowledgeable about an oil and USD/KES chart and trends this year and apply some technocratic thinking...

No one has stopped the companies from selling at a LOWER price. If they were angels as some people imagine, they could be selling the fuel at a much lower price than the set maximum. What is needed is a transparent system such that anyone can create his own spreadsheet, and be simply keying in the different price components and announcing to themselves the price for the next month! Never count on making a good sale. Have the purchase price be so attractive that even a mediocre sale gives good returns.
