evergreen247: LATEST DEVELOPMENT: Imagine Jumia listed Samsung galaxy ace 3 for N17,495 with ace 3 spec and dual sim model of S7272 only to deliver galaxy star pro if order.
................................. . ..... .........................
THE FIRST POST. Samsung galaxy ace 3 is selling for N17,500 at Jumia, I hope Jumia and Slot are not fooling anyone.
Well, let me give you a little taste of the Spec and please Google it and see.
* Android 4.2
* 4inches display, 233ppi
* 1GHz dual core cortex A9
* 1GB Ram
* 4GB ROM
* Dual sim for model S7272 for this price
* link to price www./Galaxy-Ace-3---Black-87348.html
......
My question is how come? Is this real? Well, I open this thread because I can't wait to lay my hand on it but, a big but; in fact I want people to share review before I dive #serously
... The guy that said he saw it in Slot with price of N17,500 should post the branch address, I want to check it out!

seems like samsung is not selling star pro well enough and then they used this means to try and lure us and force us to buy thinking its ace 3. but these shops selling it, did they not see that that is not ace 3 ? or are they working with samsung to try and scam us?

I don't think Samsung has got anything to do with this scam though.... I don't see why some people are blaming Samsung... this is pure Naija scam...and that's what naija does best....Why ever would Samsung wanna be involved in a scam like this...? they're a respectable company.... Nigerians do the repackaging and sell as Ace....that's pretty obvious... just like they change and tamper with the original accessories in these new phones they import... one device I bought brand new that I had read YouTube reviews and every...when I opened the package what i saw wasn't what was on the review.... instead of Two screen guards I saw only one...and the Flip pouch that was supposed to be Magnetic... ended up being crap....

my point is this is what happens in naija...it isn't a new thing...so I'm just sorry for the people that fell for the scam....No be today naija start to dey repackage thangs

I bet you it's the same thing, this further confirmed the culpability of Samsung in this scam.

I'll advice you to very humbly but firmly & urgently direct your mom to reject the delivery outright, & to NOT pay for it.

But I should think that's obvious?

Good luck.

Re: Samsung Galaxy Star Pro sold as Samsung Galaxy Ace 3 in Jumia & Slot. by duwdu: 7:02pm On Nov 19, 2013
But, reading your post again, @SMIG, it seems you probably paid for the phone upfront? If so, your best bet remains for you to direct that the delivery be rejected. Judging from testimonies on this thread this far, I believe Jumia are already aware of the issue, & you should have few delays - if any - getting your money back.

Good luck!

Re: Samsung Galaxy Star Pro sold as Samsung Galaxy Ace 3 in Jumia & Slot. by duwdu: 7:15pm On Nov 19, 2013
@SMIG... You may even forward the link to this thread to Jumia, or call their attention to it. That may just help speed up the process of you recovering your money - if you paid upfront.

Again, good luck.
