Too bad peeps would still go extra mile to acquire them. To me,it's just show-off wealth,nothing more |

Blockus:Don't bring B&O into this as they are targeted at a specific market segment unlike the products mentioned by the OP which are targeted at the mass market Even at that, have you seen the production of B&O products? Boy, the stress tests those products go though and the attention to detail put to each product is something else Regardless of the aesthetics and quality, their pricing is quite step for someone like me but not for those with deep pockets Be that as it may, Samsung S3 and S4 had $241 and $244 production costs yet cost minimum of $600 (depending on the country you reside with a price of over $900 in Russia) when they came out Let's not even talk about Apple Inc If that is not greedy overpricing, tell me the name you'll call it |

I wldnt blame them...they know in Africa we all want to have what others have therefore they mostly send this stuffs down to us. In the US or wherever this products are made, how many of them use it, they be using Nokia torchlight or one Nokia 3310. Esp China. We here we want the biggest of them all, showing off with them...will u take them to ur grave? Give it a month and it becomes nothing. What if after buying this gadgets with all ur savings and u get robbed? This is Nigeria no police send u, highest they will take reports or whatever n maybe u hear the robbers were killed somewhere, but the question is did u get ur stuffs back? How long did u use it? Did it give u extra life? Worst of them all are those that don't know nothing about them and yet spend on them for showing off sake Gini kwanu? Whatever sha I'm just saying |

myads890:That really shows they were actually overpriced but the stup.id Nigerian buyers will still make those people sell more.They always claim they have a class and will also give you a pitiful or mocking look when they see you with other brands. SMH. |
