High foot traffic from group buying can inconvenience and disturb those living nearby, as one neighbour of a group buy host in Yishun experienced.

“It’s the frequency of the people coming ... you don’t know who they are. And then people just keep walking past your house, sometimes even knock on the wrong door,” she said.

The late hours at which some customers arrive have also affected her sleep as the noise can be heard from her bedroom. The high footfall also led to litter, an incident where a customer riding a personal mobility device almost hit an elderly neighbour at the lift, and some even stealing bricks used for the flowerpots outside Ms Goh’s home.

One of them is Sengkang Group Buy, which has two collection points in the estate and more than 9,000 followers on Instagram. When Groupbuyssg still had collection points, Mr Lee said the organisers would strongly encourage hosts to establish a good relationship with their neighbours.
