GenderMix: Met a spare parts seller who happens to be an igbo man,one conversation led to another and he made this statement. A businessman who has multiple businessmen as friends can never be poor if his business goes sideways unless he lacks trust and integrity. He went on to buttress it by telling me how 95% of the goods in his shop does not belong to him. How he was ill and how the sickness ate up his capital leaving him with nothing. His friends who are in the same line of business in other states started giving him spare parts to sell on credit in order for him to get back on his feet. He said his friends didn't send him spare parts to sell on credit just because they like him, they did it because of his trust and integrity in the past. Guys like the seller lives in the present, they careless about what the future brings. N450k is gone,but your business name and reputation is in the mud. 6 Likes |

What the seller did happens a lot in business.....he saw a better price for the t.v and decided to sell it. The most important thing is to refund the money to the buyer. Even the buyer sef bought the tv because he know he could sell it at a better price. There's nothing wrong if the seller decided to make extra 50k gain.....after all he returned the money of the former buyer. 4 Likes |

valarinz: This is not reality anywhere If I pay for goods and it gets damaged even while you are coming to deliver it you better give me a new one or my money back There is a very good reason why insurance companies make profits off goods in transit all over the world |

BigCowHornn: This is on the assumption you also paid for the shipping too. I know you'll give Jumia or Konga as an example, in which case you paid for the item and shipping seperately. It's now left for Jumia to insure their delivery process which is trickled down to you via your shipping fees. The reality is, unless there was an arrangement for delivery or shipping which formed part of the payment, you will have to go pick up your item yourself. Experience teaches people a lot of things too, I've sold a car to someone years back and agreed to help arrange driver to deliver it to Abuja. In summary, car ended the journey with towing van after the driver crashed it on the way. I had to cough out a majority of the repair expenses on top wetin no concern me, I sold a car in good shape but because I didn't properly define where my business ended to the buyer, he attached the delivery as part of my sale even though the delivery fee wasn't paid to me. As you can see, I've changed model ever since, right there on my advert I'll state it clearly to you, physical inspection and verification must happen because when I sell car to you, our business ends. If driver carry car go crash for road, not my problem anymore, I won't even recommend driver to you now, you get your own driver. If I decide to include delivery as part of my services then I'll charge a seperate fee for it like most companies who offer delivery services and will take responsibility for whatever happens in transit. Now, how does this apply to the case of this TV now? Nothing about delivery was agreed upon before sale of this item, the seller only agreed to deliver based on his good mood. If the TV spoils in transit, I don't see how the buyer will request for his payment in full unless it's proven the TV was broken prior to the transportation. Since the buyer didn't pay for delivery, seller was only doing him a favour, don't you think? 2 Likes |

The op clearly doesn’t know or understand the meaning of the word “defraud”. This is simply a bad business deal for the op but no one was defrauded of his money here. What the seller did was morally and ethically wrong but again like many others have pointed out already morality is relative and what you consider ethical, another might not. There is not wrong in the buyer sharing his ordeal here so that others can be aware of the business ethics of the seller but claiming he was defrauded by the seller is wrong and such never happened. What the op is doing here is libel and according to our laws that is criminal. A better title and narrative would have been “My bad business experience with …” Wrongly claiming he was defrauded by the seller is exactly the same as the seller stole from him. 1 Share

Which legality did Gazuzz. breach by posting the seller's name and account details here on this faceless forum? You guys are sooo good at law and ethics here... It would have taken just a second for him to blur the seller's name? After collecting his full refund? Is it endangerment or libel or defamation? That name willl come up in every google search in relation to a fraud allegation Technically the seller is at fault... A one line caveat would have covered his ass "This sale is Subject to revocation with full refund at any time prior to pickup by the buyer" (Lets call this the stiingy pricer clause" (lol oga for don come pick am the next day with this clause) ... should not always be used but when a person's price is not very palatable this clause is useful. We learn everyday..Seller needs better negotiating skills.& Should have given a better excuse/ lie..(e.g my stupid cousins baby don't break am ooo!) But nobody holy pass esp after exposing the person's name and bank account. He who comes to equity must come with clean hands Like I said we live and learn. The lesson for all is to craft some legal clauses to cover your ass if the deal goes off and let the buyer be aware of these clauses ( they must be fair of course if the deal goes bad full refund is a must but who bears the risk before the goods reach the buyer? Clauses will cover you when those blue moon situations occur |
