Only radical people share crazy thoughts .

All threads related to pickup should be abolished and closed down .



If you like come with a turret I’ve aired my own thoughts and thoughts of some who are shy to air it , call me names , it doesn’t deter the fact that this whole thing is now more or less a sham and buyers use this as a bench mark for ridiculous offers

Well for me, it will be a plus if deals are d as d true state of the item

And if buyer choose to return a product sellers should refund within a reasonable amount of time

Lets say 3 days return policy after buyer receives item, if item is not as discribe

I insist Deal hunters should receive their deals b4 they make sales, so they can actually assess the true state of the product

Or sell links to those who feel they need it cheap, but then when u buy link, u should be responsible for any deal that didn't turn out right, not the deal hunter

In all! sellers should be truthful with the state of an item, and buyers should not expect 100% functionality of a used item

The related pick up thread should stay, in the mist of all the bad deals good ones are taking place too

newman10:


I concur. We don't sell anymore. They don't wanna pay even cost price. I just taya

Aba, people buy and sell products everyday, and more are still on the way, this is not food business or clothes business, or u want us to be changing device every week ni

End market get limit, resellers are probably the ones to sustain sales when end buyers are not fought coming

daamazing:
Any seller has the right to sell his item at any price, even higher than CV. Your thinking approach towards this is flawed, deal hunters spend a lot on data.. Lot of time to negotiate deals, stay up most nights, lose cash too to failed pickups, most deal hunters too don't buy in bulk (which is where regular importers cut down cost price to gain profit) Sometimes, item arrives and comes up issue not d by seller, hence you have to fix and definetly have to raise price a little to accommodate losses.
So if a seller lists his item for a certain amount and it doesn't fall to your preference, move on..
Not yen yen.. Are you in CV!

You have not been paying attention

I think most of what they are saying is that this thread drives down the prices of phones that are already in Nigeria.

I am very sure what lead to this is not about organization of the thread, insincerity or fraud but because he is getting low ball offers on items he couldn't sell as TLC that are now in Nigeria because of the existence of this thread.

This is business though, learn from people who are successful at it because even if they change the rules those people will still be the ones who are successful because they learn to adapt.

ChisomK9:
Am sure the only thread that’s needs closing is this very one ..
We need to go back to posting tlc on pickers threads , and creating a thread for already in Nigeria items ..
Because people have abuse this very thread

Pickers thread are now lonely, thread can hardly move 3 page in a week, do they need the rush back?

Shifting the goal post whenever the present doesn't suit us. That's the story of the pickup threads. We may as well ask that nairaland be closed down because e no dey favour us.
It's an open market abeg.
Its either you eat or be eaten. If u can't cope with lowballing take your craft elsewhere.

People funny sha.

Welcome To NairaLand, nor be today na

henrixx:

That the thread is fixed permanently as the first topic on Frontpage is a flaw.

A big flaw man.
Dragnet can we go back to all threads having the same ranking?
Pinning 1 or 3 at FP doesn't look too good.

Those who know what they're looking for would one way or another fish out the thread even if it's not pinned.

Since many are saying it shouldn't be closed, let it be unpinned at least. same for the other 2.

Here’s my thought on the matter, whether resolution, pickup or AIN thread. There should be a way around it. The idea of the thread been on FP makes it available for every Tom, dick and Harry to come around and underprice items. So , let’s all imagine that other people that will sell to or supply in one way or the other finds it. Someone should educate me how you all are gonna sell. Maybe my assertions are wrong though.

GadgetHunter:
this is just the solution, everybody just dey speak English here like say na una go school

Anything other than the above suggestion is just out of it

TLC and AIN thread should be created

If you post your AIN items on TLC thread you get a vacation and post removed

Can we move forward please?.

Simple and straight forward solution

Now the movement has begun . To get what you really want you aim higher than your intentions

You're right, was late in following the discus

Base on what u said about lawballing (driving price down)

(Complaining of deal hunters)

I'm plain on buying 6s soon, and I've been goung through deals here, and also checking out Jumia Global and Aliexpress too

For buyers, they wants to get a good device for an affordable price, and when there is need for returns they wants to be sure they can get a replacement or a refund, when dis is settled buyers can shop with confidence.

Truth is na only Samsung devices i see say price has drop greatly here, for an iPhone price here, prices are not too different from refurbished prices in Jumia Global and Aliexpress


Sellers here are very smart, as a buyer if u nor smart follow them, dem go use u chop lunch

Some days back i quoted wildchild1 about his deals, Truth be told those prices where soft, difficult to get else where but my cash wasn't ready.

It is simple if u want to sell more let ur prices be affordable make more sales to drive up ur profits

If u want to sell less, sell high, make less sales and u will still make good profits too

You own the Goods, Buyers own the Money, simple as ABC.

McMayor:

kodred:


The topic of discussion is both tiring and painful. Greed has taken over.

I want to buy a phone on the thread, you will be calling price and saying that’s how they sell it in CV. Are you in CV? Do you have a shop there abi I no sabi CV before I carry my two left legs come here.

Man is always trying to be the very thing that he detests. Falz is right. We are all hypocrites.

All the issues of scamming and owning of money, etc that some people complained about has happened even before this thread was created and it involves well known moniker.

My point is that, nothing happens to this thread to warrant it's closure, and forming all forms of association rendered this website useless, this is a forum.

My advice for all potential dealers is that, always make a background research on the moniker you are dealing with, you can use escrow, etc. If you are used to business thread you will understand, all deals are done at owners risk. We can just point out those that are not reliable through past transactions, just the way we've been doing.
