Hello Nairalanders,

It has become a norm for Nigerians buying fake spare parts fixing their cars and other machines that are due for repairs yet nobody is complaining, about this problem.
The Igbos are well known for importation of fake and substandard spare parts into the country which are sold at high cost using dollar/Naira tumbling as an excused.

Is this how we will continue?

What do you think?
You are the barger that will complain of its cost. For every substandard there is an Original always go for it. Besides every where in the world has this issue.

They usually show you the original but costly OEMs but you will go for d cheap ones with the faith "e go work" yet come back to complain.

I believe every businesses have their stocks in grade.

You can't buy Honeywell cartons and be looking for indomie inside.

Nbotee:


So who are the ones importing the original and standard parts?? Isnt it the same Igbos? Is dollar/Naira tumbling an excuse or a reality? The question U shld b asking is what are the regulatory bodies doing about it?

Skyfornia:
Support the Biafra movement so Igbos will leave and you will have no more fake products

And don't tell me the selling will inform which is truly the real one.
Many at times, they sell fake with the price of a real one since our mentality has been programmed to believe all expensive parts are real...

I agree with but Chinese products are everywhere, tell me now that you don't have a Chinese product in your house right now? You see this is what makes you a bloody hypocrite or you don't know where fake gucci is also a fake product?

jodeci:
This "poor op" wants to introduce bigotry and tribalism to car talk section. Go to politics and make your post.

Why didnt you go to Briscoe to buy OEM fuel pump and see if you will get it for anything less than 120k.

Chinese products are everywhere on the globe, but they don't produce fake products to other countries, its only in Nigeria they do that rubbish
