wetin person no go see for this forum

Na bike be this abi na okada.

A beg people make una help me ooo!!!

can say really

I think its based on the type of vehicle, engine capacity and year.

@siena
I tot I read somewhere in one of your posts where you mentioned that this tyre protector damages the inner wall of the tyre. How far??

@chieyvonne
Are you saying you will do it for 10K and 2K for installation. I have 3 vehicles to do, so you will probably be doing all 3 at the same time??

chieyvonne,
Please answer the questions aske by siena below

Siena:
Your prices differ from the official ones -i.e HIGHER.

You're giving no information at all.

Why not paste the link here for all to see?

Installation requires special training - are you specially trained? If yes, reassure potential buyers by giving some form of certification.

This is the link:

does this mean that no one has had "funny" experiences on this forum

@viperman
Ol boy take am easy!!!
You rose to the challenge and have cleared the air. You went to great lengths to tell us what happened with your "funny" sales, and all that you did to make it right. That say a lot about you. I need say nothing more!!

This is what we are talking about.

You know what they say, what doesnt kill you, make you strong!!. So now you are stronger.

But how many of the dealers on this forum can beat their chest and reply to my challenge.

ojayz, its going to cost me 400K to clear at tincan. But I understand this price can get to 450K too. So I guess thats the range.

na him be say (according to some VIN dealers) jenju done dupe you. What say ye??

Brauneyes, you have proven that you a principled individual who values integrity.

And I am sure I cannot say the same of other dealers on this forum.

As soon as it arrives the pictures will be posted and all well wishers will be invited for a washing ceremony

wetin e do

remember::

Sequel to my thread

https://www.nairaland.com/nigeria/topic-132219.32.html#msg2234639

I want to ask all those who have gotten good deals and bad deals from car dealers to share their experiences. Lets try to see if there is a balance or if our dealers are generally questionable.

Meanwhile, I challenge every dealer on this forum; Which of you can say confidently, that you knew something was not OK with a car but you still went ahead to sell it. Cool

Please spare no details.

Jenju,
why e be say na only you (as car dealer) wey fit talk something.

Meanwhile, my challenge still stand

If fact I dey go start another thread. For the continueation of this, please check the thread, "CAR DEALERS, ECONOMICAL WITH THE OFFERS AND TRUTH"

who be this babeisme sef!!! wey be say na only 3 post e don ever post!!

E be like say na dealer in disguise.

fotodaddy:
@all the dealers on the forum

Guys lets be real. I challenge every dealer on this forum, Which of you can say confidently, that you knew something was not OK with a car but you still went ahead to sell it.

All the dealers are all quiet now!!! Why kwanu

@inspired & viperman

From what you guys are saying, as dealers, the bottom line is "BUYER BEWARE".

It is easy, as a dealer, to say "I am not the manufacturer" or "I am only the seller" but I tell you guys, some dealers are even giving warranties on fairly used cars (and posting this on the forum). Also I beg to disagree on the fact that some of you guys don't know what is going on. How can you offer a car for sale if you haven't satisfied yourself that what you are offering will not soil your name.

I resently went to inspect a car for a friend, that was posted on the forum, as a 6 month old used in naija car. Even though I am not a dealler I could see that thia car was a dog. Worn doen brake pedal, tampered with odometer, tampered with airbag system etc. And the dealer in question told me it was so good. WQell not for me. Some other person will not see these things. And if the dealer says he did not know, then he is not fit to be a dealer.

Guys lets be real. I challenge every dealer on this forum, Which of you can say confidently, that you knew something was not OK with a car but you still went ahead to sell it.

nkc:
may i beg to differ

lol

first, we may not necesarily need a moderator.

second, vin numbers should be provided for cars, but remember, if d car is from london or any european country, that vin number is rubbish, because carfax is only US cars

thirdly, what we should do is this, if we do get a moderator or if we don't, there should be like a buying and selling guide for investors(sure we r one), if u want to buy a car, do your due diligence on d car, don't just rush of and pay, inspect and verify, but remember what ever decision, u take , u assume full responsibilty, because i don't see this people forcing anyone of us to pay, so we must research, if it a US car, vin number , will be d first step, then marry carfax report with car, and see if everything is okay

second if its an european car, go with a mechanic, if u can't see clearly on your own


i guess this is a good hint


did i differ

While I agree with nkc, I still maintain that some of these guys are crooks. The bottom like is that if they want to hide something from you and sell you a damaged car they can very well do that. Abi you be witch?? How you go know?? and moreover, how many people actually go to confirm that the VIN they were given is the VIN on the car. You nkc, you don see the vin on your car?? No be trust you trust Jenju??

The same applies to me too.

And many other people too. Generaly we are trusting. And there is no stopping these guys from taking advantage of us.
The fact is the we are not car dealers and as such are not privy to the "insider info" that these guys have.

I know so many people have been hurt by these crooks. And its not because they didnt try to verify. But there is so much you can verify!!!

A little story; A friend of mine bought a civic which had a "factory A/C". Everything looked good from the outside. The price was also very good. In fact that was why he bought the car. 3 months down the line, the A/C start acting up and he asks me to take a look. As we opened up the dash board to where the evaporator is, we found that it had been "constructed" (ie them don work am). My friend felt so cheated. Why?? Not because he didnt get his money's worth but because he though he got more that his money's worth.

This is the problem; when too good to be true is actually to good to be true

I don tire for "FANTASTIC DEAL" EXTRAORDINARY OFFER"

Why can we ever learn that if something is too good to be true, its because its too good to be true.

Does anyone have a "Too good to be true story"

Mine is the 2005 Ferrari I found on the internet for 10,000.00 USD. Beautiful pictures. Only one problem; it doesn't run. I tot to myself, "wow, I am sure I can get the brainbox etc and get it going. BUt I also decided to to a VIN check. Revealed: FLOOD DAMAGED CAR!! I prompty forgot it. How many people have suffered in the hands of dealer who dont lie, but dont say the whole truth either, selling off accidented, cars for brand new, naigerian used for toks??

I dont tire. Surely, I cant be the only one seeing these things. Or does the money we spend matter more to us than not being conned??

What say ye??

e no easy to make dough!!

Better to be an enterprising wheeler dealer than to have an aristo or two.

I admire your spirit girl!! Remember thought that Rome wasn't built in a day!!

@ispeed
My guy, try to do some research and find out what prices are like.

If you get a liberty jeep for 1M it will be either a stolen one or one in need of repairs that will set you back over 1M.

You suppose know say better soup na money kill am.

@jenju,
I sent a mail to a friend copying you. How far?? Dont forget to put people like that in your mailing list so that they can see all that is available as well as whatever they might want, specifically.

Ahha Jenju, you no dey sleep.

@jenju
Could you kindly confirm to me that the VIN is actually the chassis number and with this also give me the engine number for the Pathy. I am sure this information should be easily available from the Nissan dealership. Thanks

I'll be making a payment this week of over 50% of my ouutstandings and the difference next week. I assume you would have gotten the UPS costing by then so it can all be settled.

I am planning a trip to Abraka in Delta state with this car and I aim to have it out of the port and registered in record time. So all the info I have requested for will go towards that. Thanks.

Jenju, I hope say you dey keep me commission for all this one wey una dey use my thread oo!!!

ITS A LIE

Jenju, is it possible?

I know some one who bought a scarp heap of a car for close to this price. You sure say no comma dey there??

Anyway, as na you, I sure say na correct thing from correct guy. A beg make you show all these guys how it should be done

ol boy, this thing we you dey do no good na!!!

You wan spoil market??

How person go fit pose again if everybody fit buy sequoia for 3.7 mill.

So no big man again abi??

Ok na, we go see

Jenju, you are dooing too much again oooo

How all these fake dealers go do now wey you don bring these kind prices here

Anyway sha, me o, I support you.

Go on buddy

siena, a beg no vex, but I wan ask you one question. This your hobby is pretty expensive; and I know you did not inherit a fortune from any of our past leaders , so how do you sustain this?? Do you make this customs to sell at a margin or maybe you have sources that arent as expensive as one would have thought?? or what??

but siena, doesn't a lower mass come with the cost of vibrations??

nkc, ndo

But at least you can rest in the fact that my jeep no go scratch your king

Alls well that ends well

Can you give indicative costs for this treatment??

I have it in my bike's tyres and I wonder if your costing is as competitive.
