Part of the places in Lagos that you will learn lesson, Ikeja Computer Village is one of them. I mean learning the hard way grin grin

If you never learn from Ikeja, then have it at the back of your mind that you are still not a Lagosian and you can easily fall for cheap game play.

You probably got a narrative talent in pidgin you know? I mean you are seated on a goldmine. Get a Cartoonist. You write funny sexual series like DAUDA THE SEXY GUY OF 1979-1985. The magazine name was BAZOOKA. Proceeds from there started MIKE ADENUGA TELEVISION & Ms. PEPEYE.
Work on it bro. Fortune beholds you from there. Your mild-sexual stories will be in series. 1-publication weekly bro.
Good luck.

People that go to that market are brave. I have been there once and we patronized one of those big shops. I really feel for the legit shops there because the activities of those street hoodlums and bandits spoils business for them. Thankfully many of them have strong online presence, so you don’t have to go there.

I remember sometimes ago around 2004 or so, I was in Ibadan trying to go to Lagos to get something, I was told that I should look very well and keep my things tight most especially Computer Village, I said, No worries, So as soon as I got to Computer Village, I saw a guy asking me to buy Sendo phone, As I was pricing the phone, A guy from nowhere passed me by and slightly touched the bag I was holding, It fell on the floor, As I was about to pick it up, The guy negotiating a phone price has already stole the money in my front pocket without me knowing, I could not feel instantly, but when I left Computer Village, As I was about to enter Molue, I realized the money has gone, That was my first experience at Computer Village, MEANWHILE YOU CAN CONTACT ME FOR YOUR VIDEO EDITING, 2D AND 3D ANIMATION, MOTION GRAPHICS, REALISTIC 3D CHARACTER MODELLING AND TEXTURING, DRONE RENTAGE...+2348121937704

About 2wks ago, met with an acquaintance & we talked a bit about the crazy things that happen in Ikeja Computer Village, never been there lol.. It wasn't funny but at the same time it kinda was..

Really sorry for y'all experiences honestly.. Lord knows, I'd die of high blood pressure if I found out that they've played a fast one on me; leaving me with a fake stack of banknotes.. So I've resolved in my heart, mind, body & soul; for the life of me never to go there, not
in the nearest future, not everrr lmaoo.
you need a guide for such places. Never go alone the first time.

If you're going alone, have an anchor point - a contact with location/address you can locate via Google Map or can track you to a landmark. It's very risky navigating using a random stranger/hustler. You'll end up as toast.

Re: Welcome To Ikeja Computer Village, Kindly Share Your Experience by Amanda4life: 4:50pm On May 12, 2021
I w ng to repair pmy phone screen.

They told me to wait in the shop so that one of his boys will go and look for the size of my phone e screen,
Only to come back and told me he didnt see the size, but they stylishly switched my phone and gave me another one.

So I went back to the slot where I first wanted to repair the phone but due to high prize I decided to look for a place that that will be cheaper , so when I got there the SLOT Engineer told me the phone has been swapped

THAT HE DOES HAVE PARTS TO REPAIR THE KIND OF PHONE I CAME BACK WITH.

I RAN BACK TO THE ROAD SIDE ENGINEER BUT THEY DENIED I WENT BACK HOME WITH THE UN REPAIRABLE PHONE THEY GAVE ME

I sell in computer village and I am surprise to read about these terrible experiences people have about CV.

You will easily fall when you buy from road side vendors... How can you come to computer village and patronize someone standing by the road side with a phone or calling himself an engineer. There are shops where business men spend hundreds of naira yearly to run their business... They won't easily scam and leave their business behind...

Secondly, people easily get scammed because of outrageous offers. I had the experience of a guy who came last year for iPhone x... The value then was 190k but he went for outrageous offers where they gave him for 150k... His greed led him to fall victim and he was gisting me after the experience. This was someone whom I have given best price but he still doubted and after looking around and seeing the uniform prices, he fell victim for a price that appeared too good to be true...

Victims are their own enemy in computer village... Greed and carelessness most times play a big factor.... The inflation has hit every sector and computer village is not left out, what used to sell for 60k before the lock down now sells close to 200k... You cannot get an old core 2 laptop now for 30k unless you are buying from direct source or a mini ( which is rare).... Seeing these red flags some people ignore it and go for extremely cheap offers, then they get hooked.

Before coming to computer village to buy, it is advisable to compare prices of the product on Jiji and alot of the vendors also market there... Look for vendor rating and don't take those reviews lightly.

Meanwhile, I deal basically on used laptops and I am situated in computer village doing business... You can always contact me for your purchases 08168111666
