I wish this makes front page so I can get more advice.A friend of mine brought in some phones from abroad and they are relatively cheap.His prices are so cheap compared to the open market,like almost 2.5x lower than the open market price.
I know this is xmas period and prices of items abroad have dropped due to clearance sales but how good are these phones?I don't just jump on cheap things because they cost me less cash,I believe in quality also.If a Samsung Galaxy sells at N35k then I need to really understand how,why and what is the quality compared to the open market.

1. They are not original but cheap clones.

Or

2. They are stolen.

Or

3. They contract phones that have not been paid off.
