Selling Mobile Phones Is Not A Easy Thing To Do by Jarekpl(m): 3:03pm On Jan 18, 2007 |
Hello everyone, I'm exporting used mobile phones to various countries on the world. I found a customer from Nigeria, he started purchasing my product, first deal was only 30pcs. Then he started to increase his orders. He usually ordered 300pcs per month(most of them was low end models). After one year of good business relationship, he ordered 600pcs (he assure me that he has money only for 400pcs (he payed for 400pcs) but rest he will pay in a next order). Hell he was a reliable customer for over a year, so I've agreed. Today is a second week when he disappeared. It is time to move on, trust is a weakness Regards, Jarek |

*Skeptical about this post* But be careful, Jarek, especially when dealing with people behind computer screens. |

Yes I was, but after dealing with someone for over an year you develop somekind of trust. But this will not happened again. |

Since you have already developed a good relationship with this customer, he has paid for his previous orders, so it's easy to develop trust. I would say, give it some time and see if you hear from him How long has it been? Have you tried all contact info you have on him. Well, he paid for 66% of his order. He may not have disappeared on purpose though. There is always some level of risk involved, especially when dealing with an international buyer. Personally, I would not have shipped anything that has not been paid for in full. |

I say give the guy some time. The mistake has been made but watch it next time. I feel he will still pay up. |

Business is Good but could be better. The cheaper you buy the better your profit. Anypne know where i can still get a better deal? |
