I also had a similar experience. Shared a trusted seller with a friend several months back. Dude went behind my back to rubbish my image, my seller knowing I'm an honest young man had clarify from me. That said I learnt my lessons the hard way. So right now, I'm working on " A guide to finding your own trusted sellers"  Our people are just plain lazy. Those of us that have trusted sellers don't have three heads. I have never done wristbands before but I had a major order for wrist bands. In less than a week, I found three reliable sellers without asking any one. It's high time this spoon feeding stops and people should start fishing themselves. There's enough material on nairaland to teach you how to fish just that people are just too damn lazy to read. Any person that wants to do importation but is not willing to work hard and learn, should go into another line of business. 6 Likes 1 Share |

You really got the part about fishing right.. For all i know ppl would scream at the top of their lungs that they had rather be thought how to fish than being given a fish but deep down.. All they want is you catching the fish, killing the fish, cooking the fish and spoon feeding them the fish. And should the fish finishes and you are yet to catch another one.. That is when you will see how they will rubbish you. They will just move on to another philanthropist with a fish after damaging your image. @ Ymodulus, i feel your pain.. I know exactly how it feels cos trust me i have been there. Just do what you know in your heart is right. 1 Like |

Well well well. Your opinions are all clear, I mean vividly!
But if I were you, I should've render the views worthless after analysing the disadvantages.
If role models like you (Ymodulus), Shinaf, Yemi2plus etc painfully voice out this way, what'll happen to the followers
If you've acknowledged the thousand and one "God bless you" by your followers, I believe you shouldn't have thought about this...3 Opinions.
Because like I always says: "A Philanthropist is a father/mother of all..." So you don't have to (1) give to expect something back...(2) fear or worry about those going behind you to blackmail/back stabbing just to stay on top...and (3) telling the world how insecure you're when others you help are richer than you.
As far as this online importation is concern, you all remain a gurus, masters, mentors, role models, kings and queens.
Am not God! But trust me if you start now to make your followers feel the good things you and co were doing to reduce unemployment, frauds and scams was a mistake, then you're ready to be forgotten too soon.
Personally, "God bless you" worth more than a thousand naira airtime or more.
God bless you all! Even with the three opinions, you all remain my role models!!!!!!
****PEACE**** this is ur opinion but you don't know how painful it could be until some of these things are done to you.
It is good to say God bless you but there is nothing wrong if you bless that person. No one cares if you become richer, but you shouldn't get rich by back stabbing or tarnishing the image of another.
ok let's do it this way.
Imagine giving out your avast anti virus which is supposed to be sold for #5,000, given out for free to someone and then ur system crashes and you had to format and then you contact the person whom you gave for free to send it to you only for the guy to tell you to pay #5000. How would you feel?
This kind of stuff has happened to me too, I careless about ur money, just don't damage the relationship I have created with my seller.

Hmmm...sad indeed. But it's good to note that even in the mist of light there is dark(your shadow). Just bear this at the back of your mind that in every gathering of 12, there must always be a judah...man up friends and take the bull by the horn. Even the bible said that,"good name is better than many riches". I rest my case... |

Ymodulus:
Guarding your business secrets and confidential Information is advisable and imperative in order to prevent improper disclosure of your mojo to competitors or the public. Secret formulas, drawings, ingredients, Manufacturer's contact are all information that should be protected and never released just for free.
Too many, diluting the words of the first paragraph, would sound as a big shock, noting the fact that I have been known since time immemorial for sharing contact details/ formulas / secrets / working drawing of past- ongoing - future business deals that i have carried out successfully in the aspect of importation. Too some, at the sight of the topic will say to themselves either subconsciously or not. Ymodulus has learned. Well yes I have.
These are my reasons;
1. Favor For Favor
2. Monopolistic Behavior even when they were given such ideas on a platter of gold.
3. Some make more than u the originator, and not even remembering u
1. Favour for Favour
If you belong to the class that a favor given today will not directly or indirectly pave the way for a favour tomorrow, then you are dreaming. Even in the Holy Book of the Bible, David protecting Nabal’s cattle and expecting food in return, Jesus – Christ and God sacrificing their life and turning back to punish humans in the name of freedom of choice are both epitome examples of favour for favour.
Example 1:
This happened between me and a supposed – internet friend. November 2nd this month.
Friend: Hi! Ymodulus am Bleep from nairaland. I got your contact.
Ymodulus: Ok. How can I help u?
Friend: Please can you help me with any seller details for PlayStation 4? I saw on Alibaba but am scared as negative comments.
Ymodulus: Guy do not risk your money buying PlayStation 4 from china, they will sell you fake one of 64GB telling you its 500GB.
Friend: So please how do I get a good one?
Ymodulus: Ok call me later in the evening I will send you the contact of a trusted Seller. Also I will give you someone that will help verify the PlayStation after paying before it leaves China
Friend: Thanks so much
** Friend begins praises and eulogies **
***** I sent him all the contacts same day for free and without asking him even recharge card***
This Occurred Wednesday, 9th of November.
I tried contacting my PlayStation 4 Seller and found out I misplaced the contact. I quickly checked my Phone contacts and call this Unknown Nairalander.
Ymodulus: Hi afternoon its Ymodulus.
Friend: I know na. Afternoon boss
Ymodulus: Bros abeg I lost that my playstation 4 seller contact wei I give u. Abeg u fit send me back the contact?
Friend: *** Begins to stammer ***
*** Ymodulus calling and calling to plead for the contact***
Friend: Guy abeg, u go find me something to send u this contact o.
Ymodulus: Ok I will transfer you N1000 to go to café or get data. Send me your account details
Friend: I MEAN U GO BUY THE CONTACT. U no say na money u and me wan make
Ymodulus: ***** so shock couldn’t believe my ears. Hung up the phone ***
********** Long story Short I got the contact back via another means. Through the Q.I *****
Example2:
This Happened yesterday.
A close business partner, gave out a contact to A FRIEND OF MINE sometime, now went back to ask that FRIEND OF MINE for his belt seller contact. See the conversation that ensured.
Business Partner: Oga abeg u fit help me with ur contact for ITEM XXXX ?
FRIEND OF MINE: Sorry oga. I no fit make I no lie u.
Business Partner: oga na me be Ymodulus friend wei give u my top Glass seller best clone
FRIEND OF MINE: I no na ** even begin to describe my close business partner further **
FRIEND OF MINE: U should understand that a business contact, 1 business contact can fetch you millions…. Bla blah blah and should not be given out for free. As it’s a business secret.
FRIEND OF MINE: U can tell me the belt you want, and send me the money I will help u buy
**** Long discussion and lecturing of how sharing contacts are bad continued. Phone Hung up ****
2. Monopolistic Behavior even when they were given such ideas on a platter of gold.
This is something that I experienced twice. Once with some group on Nairaland and second time of recent.
You give a lady your personal Kitchen Utensils Contact. This same lady then goes behind you asking your manufacturer that she wants to be the only sole Nigerian distributor. Also other Nigerians coming through her (Including I the Nigerian who gave her the contact).
Why are Humans this wicked? I gave her the contact without even asking her a penny and she goes behind me to tell my contact that!!! .

3. People Making more Money than you will make.
All the above happenings have made me come to clearer understanding of the words Patent / trademark and likes. Before I had this text-book regurgitating definition of patent / trademark and likes etc. Lets be honest the essence of business is to make money. Most times you give out this contact for free, those you give them too end up making more money than you without showing any form of appreciation.

There are times when we all feel cheated, abused, not appreciated etc. But the reality is what life is actually all about.
Mr. Ymodulus, I'm one of your fan here on NL. You are a rare homosapien specie I must say. No one can feel what you actually felt better than you do. I just want to let you know that you have inspired me alot. Your contributions and lectures are worth more than gold/money.
Despite the resolutions you make about your business views henceforth, don't let it bury your soft spot.
Personally, I want to have you as my importation mentor. Tried all I could to get your contact but my efforts were futile.
I'm currently not on BBM, if you feel you can grant my request above you can send me your contact through my mail osemudiamheprecious@gmail.com or my number 07062048540. My instinct tells me you will grant my request, but if you decide not to grant it. Be sure I would still be you fan. You've imparted me more than a brother/friend.
Happy new year of greater exploit.

Even in the Holy Book of the Bible, David protecting Nabal’s cattle and expecting food in return, Jesus – Christ and God sacrificing their life and turning back to punish humans in the name of freedom of choice are both epitome examples of favour for favour.
Example 1:
This happened between me and a supposed – internet friend. November 2nd this month.
Friend: Hi! Ymodulus am Bleep from nairaland. I got your contact.
Ymodulus: Ok. How can I help u?
Friend: Please can you help me with any seller details for PlayStation 4? I saw on Alibaba but am scared as negative comments.
Ymodulus: Guy do not risk your money buying PlayStation 4 from china, they will sell you fake one of 64GB telling you its 500GB.
Friend: So please how do I get a good one?
Ymodulus: Ok call me later in the evening I will send you the contact of a trusted Seller. Also I will give you someone that will help verify the PlayStation after paying before it leaves China
Friend: Thanks so much
** Friend begins praises and eulogies **
***** I sent him all the contacts same day for free and without asking him even recharge card***
This Occurred Wednesday, 9th of November.
I tried contacting my PlayStation 4 Seller and found out I misplaced the contact. I quickly checked my Phone contacts and call this Unknown Nairalander.
Ymodulus: Hi afternoon its Ymodulus.
Friend: I know na. Afternoon boss
Ymodulus: Bros abeg I lost that my playstation 4 seller contact wei I give u. Abeg u fit send me back the contact?
Friend: *** Begins to stammer ***
*** Ymodulus calling and calling to plead for the contact***
Friend: Guy abeg, u go find me something to send u this contact o.
Ymodulus: Ok I will transfer you N1000 to go to café or get data. Send me your account details
Friend: I MEAN U GO BUY THE CONTACT. U no say na money u and me wan make
Ymodulus: ***** so shock couldn’t believe my ears. Hung up the phone ***
********** Long story Short I got the contact back via another means. Through the Q.I *****
Example2:
This Happened yesterday.
A close business partner, gave out a contact to A FRIEND OF MINE sometime, now went back to ask that FRIEND OF MINE for his belt seller contact. See the conversation that ensured.
Business Partner: Oga abeg u fit help me with ur contact for ITEM XXXX ?
FRIEND OF MINE: Sorry oga. I no fit make I no lie u.
Business Partner: oga na me be Ymodulus friend wei give u my top Glass seller best clone
FRIEND OF MINE: I no na ** even begin to describe my close business partner further **
FRIEND OF MINE: U should understand that a business contact, 1 business contact can fetch you millions…. Bla blah blah and should not be given out for free. As it’s a business secret.
FRIEND OF MINE: U can tell me the belt you want, and send me the money I will help u buy
**** Long discussion and lecturing of how sharing contacts are bad continued. Phone Hung up ****
2. Monopolistic Behavior even when they were given such ideas on a platter of gold.
This is something that I experienced twice. Once with some group on Nairaland and second time of recent.
You give a lady your personal Kitchen Utensils Contact. This same lady then goes behind you asking your manufacturer that she wants to be the only sole Nigerian distributor. Also other Nigerians coming through her (Including I the Nigerian who gave her the contact).
Why are Humans this wicked? I gave her the contact without even asking her a penny and she goes behind me to tell my contact that!!! .

3. People Making more Money than you will make.
All the above happenings have made me come to clearer understanding of the words Patent / trademark and likes. Before I had this text-book regurgitating definition of patent / trademark and likes etc. Lets be honest the essence of business is to make money. Most times you give out this contact for free, those you give them too end up making more money than you without showing any form of appreciation.
[size=13pt]Truth be told point 3 is not really a problem to me and is the least reason i wrote this. Point 1 and 2 are.[/size] To me it's not a new thing..... So am not surprised. 1. I've brought someone from the village to the town where I based, introduced him to my line of business and he was doing fine and even got the money used in marrying his wife and he has the got to go nd tell my landlord to chase me out of the place am staying that he is ready to pay twice of whatever as am paying him. Another person went ahead to tell my landlord that he should drove me out of the place, that I've stayed to long in that place. That another person should be allowed to stay there, even though another person is not going stay there that the place should remain empty and he will be paying for the empty space as long as am not saying there. And so many of them even at a point of using charms. And this are the people I used my hard earned money to transport from their sufferings in the village to the town. Feed them for some days before they were able to stand on their own. But it never stopped me from doing good..... Because goodwill always protects me no matter what, it will always speak for me even when am silent. .....Whatever that makes that your seller not to accept that girls offer (to be the sole distributor) is your goodwill. Assuming you collected money before giving her that contact, it would have lead to your doom. Because she would have told the seller that it's because that you collected money from her before giving her the contact nd your seller will not be happy with you. Tips: In case you ever want to give out a contact again, before you do send the persons details I mean details to the contact first, tell him/ her that you just want to help the person before you can give the person the contact. That's what I do, whenever I brought someone from the village, I first introduce him/her to my landlord, tell my landlord that I just want to help him/her instead of suffering in the village. And that your point 3 is so bad..... Am not asking you to be me because you can't possibly be me. But don't stop to do what you feel is right maybe because of what people have done to you..... God bless you 3 Likes 1 Share |

Ymodulus:
You laughing. Am so serious. Experience is the best teacher. Now i realize some people are not wicked because they really want to but because they were made too. I feel sad reading this post. It happens time without number |
