I had been usiing my Blackberry Bold 5. I think. One
of those camera phones and it was clear that The Lord
wanted me to upgrade. A new year beckoned and I wanted to
enter it with one of those phones that used stylus and were
y’know big. So, ladies and gentlemen, I proceeded to proceed to
Computer Village to make my dream a reality. I had with me
my old phone and about N10, 000. The plan of course was to
do a swap, add some cash and get the precious Q10. Gosh, I
was so excited.

That’s how I got there with my own two legs and saw those
guys that sell phones on the street. Asked one if he had the
phone o, he said yes. Can’t remember his name sha, but he sha
showed me the Q10. I played with it, even made a demo call
and all to be sure it worked. Baba took me off the street saying,
“We can’t do business here o, before these agberos will ask you
to settle them”. So, he took me to a shed. All this while, he
wrapped the Q10 in a white handkerchief saying he didn’t
want it to scratch and that’s how he keeps his phones. Me that I
wasn’t even paying attention. I was just excited ‘cos my level
was about to change. Nigga just give me phone, abeg.

So, we’re chilling in this shed, negotiating. He says I’m going
to have to give up my phone and cash. I’m like, “How much?”
He says like N15, 000. I’m like, “Just look at this scam. I’ll
give you N10, 000 last.” He mutters some shot and agrees. He
takes my phone to check it. He then tells me he’s going to stop
a bike for me so that no agberos will disturb me immediately
we’re done. I’m like Okak. He takes the N10, 000, counts it
and then gets a bike for me. He tells me not to stop o because
these agberos. So he hands me the handkerchief.

Men and brethren, I got on this bike so excited and told the
bike man, “Go go go, don’t stop!!!”

The bike man took me to Allen avenue before I came down. I
held on to this handkerchief like my life depended on it. Fam, I
was a big boy now. They were going to respect me now. I had
officially arrived. Do they know those of us that have Q10?
Shiiii.

So I said, let me check my phone jare. I unwrapped the hanky.
Children of God, I unwrapped the hanky – and looking at me
in all it’s glory was a bright white bar of B29 soap. I looked at
the soap, the soap looked at me…I looked at the soap. I poked
the soap. Maybe this was a case for the phone. I turned the
soap over. No buttons, No screen. I was weak, guys. I was
weak. I stood there for some minutes staring at this soap.
Look. I took the quickest bike back to Computer Village. Of
course, it was instinct. I didn’t see the seller. I still had the
bloody soap. One idiot there now asked me, “Broda, why you
dey para? Dem no give you the cream wey dey follow the
soap?”

Ladies and gentlemen, I had sold my phone and paid extra
N10, 000 for B29 soap (with no accompanying cream). That’s
most likely the most expensive B29 soap in the history of
Nigeria.

I Have to borrow my aunts phone for the main time


You can as well share Ur own experience too

my own case was similar, but its a long time ago. I went with my friend to yaba to buy a phone on getting there I saw some show glass with phones on display, that time the phones that were common was symbian nd nokia2700.while I was still debating on d price a man who was standing by my side just flashed his phone at me and all I could remember was me,my friend nd the man debating on d price, we finally settled on 4000 which was the only money I was with.initially before paying d money I checked the phone nd it was working,but he collected the phone and told us he doesn't want the police man standing beside us to know what we were doing, so after paying the money he asked us to hurriedly leave nd not look back so the police man would not interfer. that was how I took the phone nd walked for long distance,infact I almost got home before I discovered that I was holding a phone casing packed with fufu. Ever since then(2011) I nd my friend became wise.

lol
dnt use the soap o if not you will be washing away your destiny. .

even a bold 5 is more better than the q10,drains ba3 alot
bold 5 was sold more than 80k before, but q10 is sold for 40k, in a year to come, you will come here and sell for 5k for a newer version

i would advice you not to fall among the crowd, coz this life we are blinded by things we crave for when the dough is not much available. try to decipher what this mean and not the other way round.
as you can see you paid a price for wanting something that make people fall head on you.
You want what you don’t have, so you scheme and kill to get it. You are jealous of what others have, but you can’t get it, so you fight and wage war to take it away from them. Yet you don’t have what you want because you don’t ask God for it. And even when you ask, you don’t get it because your motives are all wrong—you want only what will give you pleasure. james 4:2-3

The thunder wey go fire those computer village boys still dey inside oven. Mine was my laptop o. I went to computer village with the hope of repairing my laptop's charging point. I was trying to look for a repair shop when a guy accosted me and asked if I was looking for where to repair my laptop. I shunned him at first, but after walking round for 20 mins I went back to locate the guy.
Fast forward to his burrowed shop, he tried my laptop with my charger and told me he wanted to test it the laptop with his oga's charger next shop. I kept my eyes on him of course but what surprised me was how he was able to remove my screen without me seeing him remove it. I later got to know after 2weeks. Chai, I no fit cry.

Hahaha Funny stories, I has a good laugh.
computer village, a place where your phone could be stolen even when you are playing music with it and the music won't stop.

This kind of mumuness is alarming. Na wah o.

But mine was @Ikorodu as far back as 2011

Hehehe . Really funny story, I'm sure lessons would be learnt from this experience of yours.

Okay

If you are a street boy there are some scam you will never fall for

Its been long, Needed a new phone then,went to Alaba int'l to buy a second hand phone,I begged the guy to sell me a good phone,he was swearing to God,that the phone he sold to me was good..


I left,I haven't gotten to mile 2,before the screen started blinking,and finally went blank,all effort to repair it was futile,I was told the phone has expired.

I couldn't even remember the exact shop I bought it..I was mad,I wake up every night to curse the guy for like one week.

Since then,I buy anything I need new and from the manufacturer's showroom.m

happened to me too, parted with 9.5 thinking I've arrived with Sony Ericsson k850i, NA so I see soap o

Choi

See neat and smooth scam

OP na funny and good writer o

All my three brand new phones - Nokia N70, Sony Ericsson K750 were all bought from Ikeda Computer Village albeit renown stores like i-Cell and Sims back then no dulling.
