Black Friday Is A Scam??? Share Your Experience Here! by Nobody: 12:27pm On Nov 28, 2015 |
I had my eyes on five online stores. Konga Jumia Payporte Dealdey and Kampke And I was looking to buy either of this: -Christmas gifts for my family. -Female clothing: Everything in my wardrobe sucks! Sometimes I feel like packing all my clothes in a suitcase to dump it in the middle of the road for whoever wants to have. Sometimes I secretly pray for my clothes to be stolen whenever I sundry after washing. I need a change of wardrobe, and I was looking forward to seeing my favorite instagram wears for N600. Abi? They said 90 percent off. Don’t blame me. Smart Phone: In the event I am unable to get clothes. I wanted to get a Techno or Infinix smartphone for my brother. He’s been using a battered phone bounded by a rubber band for a long time and I am really inclined to surprise him. Iphone6: Iphone 6 sells at 200K. They said up to 90% percent up. ‘You better be ready, you better be fast. I had my N20K ready. The first brand to roll out black Friday deals was Kampke. That was three days ago. Usually I visit Kampke just to feed my eyes cos they have the finest female fashion items in Nigeria but their prices? Don’t even dream it. When I first heard they were rolling out Black Friday deals, that was last week, I bookmarked the pages of items I have been eyeing for months. Two flat sandals from zara which sold at N6999. On Wednesday, I went to take advantage of their new deal. Former Price: N12000; New Price: N6999 Same with their dresses! No change at all. I will not scream and shout cos that oversized N12,000 gown from God knows where has reportedly been slashed to N6,500. No, I will not. As at this morning, the so-called black friday prices are still reflecting. If those deals were genuine, they would have been in a hurry to revert them to their former prices. Payporte Payporte was the second. I have never shopped with them but when I went to try my luck, I noticed that the 80% off items were suddenly out of stock. While the items I wouldn’t even buy for my enemy showed ten naira price difference, literally. As at this morning, they claim their entire stock are sold out. Who bought them? I guess I am just a hater. Dealdey I visited Dealdey to check their Friday deals. The first thing I saw on the homepage was a service offer from someone who usually braids hair for N8,000 but has slashed the price by fifty percent to N4,000. I quickly hit the exit key. Konga I haven’t bought from Konga before but I have read and heard nice reviews about them. And I was hoping to write the 99999th awesome review by Friday night. But then, shit happens. If I spent eight hours on the internet on Friday, I gave Konga five of those hours and noticed that. -Those deals in their fashion page do not look slashed in any way! Prior to that, I KNOW THE PRICES OF EVERY ITEM ON THE FIRST PAGE OF THE CLOTHING & SHOES CATEGORY WHEN SORTED FROM LOWEST PRICE. -I am a size 6. And I could not find size 6 items. -Same with shoes. I have very tiny feet and when I settled for one item just so I could review the experience here, the delivery price for a yaba address was 80 percent of the cost price and there was no pickup option. I really like Konga but I am mad and I feel I do not deserve it. And looking at their banner on my sidebar annoys me so I have taken it off and I have forfeited all my accumulated earnings. That space is vacant to a more appreciate brand. Jumia Finally Jumia. I am TeamJumia. Never had a bad experience shopping with them. And even when other online stores were fooling with me, I was calm cos Jumia Black Friday was only few hours away. I refreshed 12:00am on the dot. Site didn’t load. And when it finally did by 12:28am, all items were appearing without images. I refreshed a couple of times and same thing until 2am. 503 error mostly. Eventually, I was able to land on the flash sale page. I ordered for infinix hot 2. YAY! God win! It was in my cart! I added a hair dryer and two dresses for my mum and went to cash out but met an empty cart. Next second, it was out of stock! Same thing with the Techno phone later in the day, this time I went to cash out immediately but landed in the homepage with an empty cart! I ended up opening 4 jumia accounts yesterday yet I wasn’t able to buy one item. I visited other random stores and laughed at their so called Black Friday deals in comparison to online stores abroad. This thing is overrated in Nigeria and it might take another 365 days before I go back on my word. Let’s see what Cyber Monday in Nigeria has to offer.
