I have a weird question:

Is it me or does the screen display quality (not ppi resolution o) of Redmi Note 4X is better than Redmi 5 Plus? I didn't notice until I held both side by side. RN4X seems to be of more quality, like Samsung AMOLED screen, while R5P screen look like good infinix phone screen, not as good as RN4X in quality. Note:Both have almost the same ppi and I set both phones contrast level to be the same.

Is it just me?

Most people here has contributed by trying to resolve the case and what did you think "that" guy did all through? His first post to the issue was to ignite unnecessary tension by insisting most people would have invalidated the buyer's claim, u don't even know half of it when it comes to him. E Don tey, nor be today.
grin grin grin... Ok no problem... But as una know am, na just to avoid am na.. Did u read nobody response....
There's a saying, when a craze takes ur towel and runs with it, u don't run after him, else u look insane... My two cents. ✌️

Ok thanks

Would have bought some from you but we far from each other and you don't have agents in Ghana

I have to buy from them because it is easier

Well everyone knows about the attitude on here.
Actually that's what the cabal members on this thread have in common i.e varying intensity of attitude problems, which is why they would jump in his defense.
I haven't read through but i bet some tried to invalidate your issue with the purchase you made. You would even see a couple of testimonies about said seller to make you look like you're the one at fault. LOL
They would be angry when they see this and have to hold themselves back from replying or quoting me. I would be asleep by then. grin
It is well.

Well observed

lollllll, I laugh when people think one can just open a dispute on alixpress if some things go wrong. I personally doubt Noobody will win that dispute as na custom ish and Ali has zero tolerance for that.

That's a massive loss 31*4, over 120k.

Nor let fear catch me ohhh, is it 4 phones of Noobody that is with customs?

noobody:


Mr know it all,please what exactly should i av done again,asides pleading,apologising and begging for the discomfort,got him a replacment unit,what more could a customer focused seller/business could have done please?
Pls can you share few more tricks and tips as regards which this issue could hav been better resolved and improve this business,its best you share it,rather than keep throwing shades and subs about,

This is the exact problem with nigerians,everyone seems to know what the problem is and all dey do is keep ranting,no one knows what the solution is or wants to share it.

Everyone here has either contributed positively or drop constrictive critiscisms,but everything with you has to do with insults,abuse,competition,i honestly tot you had changed for the better,and i expected more from you.

Well its you of course,i am rather not shocked nor dissapointed,it is in situations like this you shine best.



Noobody we may not know where d shoe pitches u, if really you're paying that customs charge dat will be hash on u, but just take it easy

I'm glad the buyer got his phone every other issue is secondary, but u bearing that loss alone is painful

Is dey anyway u can avoid paying that customs charge 31k not a joke

If indeed they will return the item after a month, I believe he should allow them so he can open dispute and be fully refunded but my problem be say shey dem go return am? Na naija we dey o.

The dispute may not be won by him. On the terms and condition, he is meant to pay local duties once the item arrives if any. But since he refused to pay and the item is returned, I am not confident he can win such dispute. Remember it takes some cost to even return it which is not by him. Eventually he may not get all his money. I am not an expert here but I will advise he does all he can to grab his phone even if na to settle someone 5k. The time is taken too long for resolutions

You have a point, alixpress is very harsh on anything related to custom issues and will definitely side the seller. Very unfortunate that he has to pay 10k to collect that phone from PO. As it is nobody is safe from this custom ish as it is pretty random. Just place your order and have an open mind that anything can happen, that's the way going forward.

2 of my orders were charged. I paid 16k+ for each of them and ended up still selling them at normal price thereby suffering a terrible loss.

If I say they should purchase from sellers here, instead of going directly to aliexpress, I might be accused of speaking sentimentally because I'm a seller.

Yes you're very right.....even the Global Redmi Note 5 screen too is not as sharp as the RN4X....the chinese Redmi Note 5 screen is very sharp and bright compare to global variant though

Don't mind us in this country, most of us are hypocrites. I wonder how most people here would react if they were in the shoes of the seller, it is easy for people to pass judgement if they are not faced with the situation.

Can't even wrap my head around that ridiculous charge of 31k on a phone.

This was why I was so jittery when I ordered a oneplus 6 phone of over 200k via noobody. But the guy kept my cool all the way. Phone took just 9 days and it's not DHL. Eventually I paid just 500 naira to nipost. A few times business can go wrong with expectations. Me I was actually ready to face every consequence b cos noobody is not the courier or customs. If only we know the losses some of the sellers go through. I even had a Redmi 5 plus ordered through noobody a week before the oneplus but that was DHL express shipping. There was problems with DHL just same way the complainant had. Noobody sent me another tracking number and I kept tracking and phone arrived 4 days from the day of new tracking.

I suspect as much. They probably used less quality screen for global R5P and RN5 to save costs.

I'm sure you've not said anything new in that write up that seemed related to my "subpar" knowledge of Xiaomi products. This is all i have to say to you concerning your attitude in business. I'm not your customer so you CAN(optional) be rude to me whether banter, play or real BUT be nice(not optional) to your customers, you CANNOT play or banter with them coz they're putting food on the table. This is a simple concept you should always have at the back of your mind.

Even a know-it-all in the tech space is nothing out of the ordinary and surely less likely to cause sleepless nights than a flippant salesman in pay-before-delivery business.

Which insult/abuse is that? I don't do insults. shocked

That's the problem with mini importation business. I'm happy he got his phone at last because even if it's me, I might do worse than he did. No way I will be promised 7days guarantee express delivery and I didn't get it till like 15 days that I won't be mad at whoever makes such promises. No one should ever pray to get into those custom ish but ours sellers here should always prepare for them because they are REAL! They exist!

Until xiaomi have physical shop here or if our sellers have those phones with them and sell to whoever can afford it, then issues like this will continue to exist.

I hope both of them settle matter amicably
