Lexmeizta: Most times it's not about too much money honestly, its about avoiding the heartache and disappointment. True, there are plenty honest traders here and I have met some too. I'm sure you have raised awareness about this and any potential customer will inspect cautiously. The laptop guy also, I still remember his ID cos he did something like this to his customer and would advise anyone to thread with caution when dealing with him. Same with some posters on auto section. My point is, just salvage whatever you can and if you can get a refund, just get it, let the rest go and move on. All the wahala you have gone through cannot be duly compensated anyway but you have made other buyers aware of this act. 1 Like |

Lexmeizta: If he truly said all this, then he is a thief, I hate thieves, that's fraud... So because the phone was sold to u at 10kobo , thats why he gave u a almost dead phone, |

Op, please, in another time, make sure you test any device you want to buy very well before making a payment in order to avoid stressing yourself . 1 Like |

ceejay80s:Believe me, Kingsley said this. I won't cook up stories. I even have a screenshot of when he called me yesterday asking for the iPhone, fast forward to today, he's denying it when he was confronted by his colleagues. Thank God for call history |

kenobi2020:You shouldn't just generalize due to what happened which could happen to any gadget seller. I have once purchased a new defective phone at Slot. This Arikson of a guy is a reputable seller I have been dealing with for months. He's never failed me for once. So far, I have purchased 2 phones from him which I'm enjoying. I have also recommended him to friends. lol and behold, I met him here in Nairaland and we have had go business deals. I shouldn't have come in this, but doing could help prospective buyers to know he's worth dealing with. I'm sure he and his colleagues will sort things out with the guy who bought a defective phone which he's been told about refund already. My own views about Arikson! 2 Likes |

A bad deal is all it takes to tarnish an image. He should have set a date for refund. It shouldn't have degenerated to this level except of course he didn't want to refund him. |

Lexmeizta:Bro, I understand how you feel, but i can tell you for a fact that ARIKSON is legit. he must have gotten mixed up in some issues with the kingsley guy. I bought an iphone from arikson, i was in Abuja and he was in lagos, he transported the phone to me all the way from Lagos. I wasn't satisfied with the iphone, and i demanded a refund. Arikson transferred my money to me immediately upon sending the phone back to Lagos. My point is, if arikson wasn't legit, he could have ran away with my money, after all i don't stay in lagos. I am sure whatever the mix up is, it'll be resolved but saying Arikson isn't legit is what I'll disagree to. #Peace |

kenobi2020:Bros, arikson is not that kind of person o, i've done business with him. he just got so unfortunate associating his business with the kingsley of a guy. Even the OP has acknowledged the fact that kingsley is the negativity behind this. |

D fact Arikson treated u well wont take away d fact dat he ill treat Mr Alex and he cud still happen 2 any future customer.

Thanks for wading into this matter guys, truth be told, I didn't mean to soil his image or any of such thing. Just wanted to put word out there, in general, let's all be careful and apply caution. I understand Arikson might have had legit dealings with people on here, it's all good. My apologies to Arikson, probably just a good guy who got caught up in the web, please also try to work on Kingsley, let's hope this puts an end to such actions. Thanks again guys, y'all have been awesome |

Lexmeizta: Has he refund u? |
Re: My experience buying a used device, Always check properly and make no assumption by Lexmeizta: 8:55pm On Mar 24, 2017 |
twinskenny:I decided to fix myself. Better to salvage what I can, Kingsley didn't help but Arikson made some effort, reached out to me and for that I respect him |
Re: My experience buying a used device, Always check properly and make no assumption by Lexmeizta: 10:16pm On Mar 24, 2017 |
So Mr Arikson has offered to help me fix the phone at my own convenience. Welcomed development and I believe would be a good chance to set the record straight so as to tell him apart from Kingsley Enearu |
