Buying Gadgets Online In Nigeria' Don't Fall Victim To This

Published by Nairaland on Wed, 04 Nov 2015


Take a close look at the picture below:Do you find anything wrong with it'Wait!You don't'How'Ok, have a look at this one:Now do you find anything wrong with the first picture'Thought so.Look:The Infinix hot 2 is Google's android one project for Nigeria (and as it seems, Africa). When it was launched back in August, it came in two variants ' 1GB RAM and a 2GB RAM versions.The launch price of both devices were '17,500 and '19,500 respectively.Even if the price of the smartphone is going to increase, it shouldn't be Infinix Zero 2 high (as the first picture depicts).The point of this post'While doing a research on the best android phones under 20k in Nigeria, I came across some horrible listings online.You see sellers upping the price of a device as much as 15 ' 20 thousand naira.The most annoying part'Unsuspecting buyers would still give their money away.Should we blame the buyer (for not researching) or the seller (for being a thief)'I don't know.Afterall, it's the buyers money.What's important right now is this:You reading this, before making any purchase (whether online or offline) on tech products, be sure to check out the recommended retail price of that said product.A simple google search (or bing ' whichever you fancy) could save you as much as N20,000.But that's just one seller!Ok, here's another:And another:This one's not an infinix hot 2, but I just couldn't let go.The normal price of the Infinix hot note (1GB RAM) is N24,000.But guess how much this seller sold it for!The craziest part'He made sales! :sad:*sighs*A word is enough'''..Source: http://techviews.com.ng/online-shopping-theft/
