If not for confidentiality issues I for post her pix. D girl is from Bayelsa, but na Abuja she dey live. Curvy in all the right places, very endowed and the feeling you get looking at her face is like the feeling you get when you're hungry and you put cold slightly frozen chocolate in your mouth to munch, dat near total satisfaction feeling. D girl juz fine anyhow. Her smile is mmmm, so tasty. I come dey wonder say how manage. Cuz na Ethiopians, Namibians, Surinamese etc blacks dey fine reach dat level. But she's a shortyyy G sad, I don't do short girls as a natural principle as per serious dating.

ok, i get you clear now. The women have more advantage as per endorsements, and Nengi being a Bayelsa babe and not bad looking, she go hammer plenty endorsements grin. But come sef, why are Bayelsa babes so fine, as in, as per natural beauty. Many of them are not the bleaching or "toning" type, dey maintain their natural color. There's one girl now within my missile radar range that is a Bayelsa babe, very fine girl, original brown chocolate. Full Options. Nengi sef dey learn where she dey. But d girl is short. Which kain luck b dis na. If only she was tall like even if na 5ft5, I will have open her file. Am confused sad

Costa always charges his opponent quick. Israel's habit of running in the ring won't do him any good as Costa will always be onto him.
I have never seen any opponent sustain an offensive strategy against Style Bender very long. D guy na wind, na u go tire and switch to defense when he switches the game on u. Israel is an offensive fighter too.

lol
bros i hear you ooo
but kelvin gastelum had izzy hurt
as good as his head movement was kg connected with some clean punch
and even a high leg kick that made izzy wobble and almost lost the fight..
but Izzy fight iq is high
but e no too dy very very hard to land as u put am..
costa self na pro
so he go deffo land
but izzy go make am miss that one sure
It's fighting na, so d opponent, especially a top opponent must surely land some hits too. It can't be one sided. But the thing is Izzy won't give you the chance to land a clean big hit. Either he dodges or blocks or uses his body movement to reduce the impact of the force to a level that won't knock him out. He is very very calculative, he doesn't just fight, he sort of "calculates" his opponents, their moves and techniques during the fight and solves their equation. I like the guy cuz he recognizes his weakness that he doesn't have a strong build and can't absorb heavy hits without serious damage, so his style of fight is EVASIVE. He uses evasive combat, not just only as a defense but also for offense and that makes him very deadly because na that evasive offense dey finish him opponents, they don't see it coming like Randy Orton's RKO outa nowhere grin. And by the time he lands one too many clean hits, even the monster opponents with strong build and bronze jaws start wobbling. Style Bender's technique is very unique and so many people get confused and lose their game plan when fighting with him. Do you know Venom in MMA? The guy is kind of fluid too, and very skillful with a unique fighting style, did you watch the fight he was finally KO'd? He got KO'd in a very bad way. He was even leading the fight but unfortunately his cockiness caused him to make an error, and just one KNEE strike sent him to LaLa land, lights out goodnight everybody kinda KO grin. Cuz the guy get glass jaw, he don't have a strong build that can take heavy hits and still stand. Style Bender knows this, so he is very very evasive and it has been working well for him.
BusinessRe: RE- DM For Price: The Reason Why Many Online Vendors Do It by Openbusiness(op): 10:46am On Sep 26, 2020
xreal:
Your comparison is way irrelevant.

Seun stated his costs for advert; did he tell anyone to 'DM for price'?

What standard? Set by who?

Placing your price in adverts even saves you and your potential customer further headaches.

'DM for price' sounds as an insult sef.
That is Seun's own strategy. Go to Instablog on Instagram, will you see his advert price there? No! You have to DM for it and even when you DM, you won't get it, you have to submit your email and they will send you their rates. Does it mean Instablog is a con artist or a scammer or has bad intentions for asking DM for price? No! Does it mean Instablog is losing advert opportunities because of this? No! Instablog even runs more adverts than Nairaland, despite the fact that Instablog is even far more expensive than Nairaland. So it is a marketing strategy. Some sellers use it, some don't. You can't label sellers who use that strategy as con artists and you can't automatically equate it as low patronage. Just because you don't like it or it turns you off doesn't mean it so for everyone. Serious ready buyers will always patronize the sellers that sell what they want whether they put DM for price won't stop them from buying and won't make them say the seller is a con artist.

Costa is an animal. The guys body is rock solid. I just hope Adesanya wins this as not only will he lose his belt if he loses, He's also gonna be inflicted with heavy damages that might cost him his fighting career.
Style Bender go kill am. Do you know right now that Style Bender is among the top 1% fighters in UFC with the best takedown defense? The guy's takedown defense is sooooo good to the point that other fighters who are highly gifted and skilled with wrestling grappling and takedown skills don't even bother trying when facing him. Because the guy is always like 4 moves ahead of his opponents. They just can't catch him unawares, and his movements are very fluid and unpredictable, they can't hold him. Adesanya eats such fighters for breakfast. Even if Kabib the takedown small god fight Style Bender, Kabib can't take him down cuz Style Bender is too quick, too smart, too fluid, too skillful. Costa's strong point is his striking ability. I think na who u blow u go fit win with striking, Israel na wind grin, very hard to land clean shots on him, very very hard. And Israel is a very dangerous striker too. The guy is a combat machine grin

Princepioneer:
Av been watching this guy's former fights since last night.... Guy got skills but he has to apply some new tactics on his opponent this time around cos that Costa guy is a monster...
That's what they say all the time about his opponents, they are monsters and truly they are. But one thing they forget to tell those guys is that Style Bender is the Monster Killer grin. Do you think it is beans or moin moin that the Legendary Spider Man himself aka Silva called Style Bender the real deal and passed the torch to him. Outside of his own talent and chi, Style Bender has the spirit of Spider Man in him grin The only person that can beat Style Bender right now is Jon Jones and fortunately for him they are not in the same weight class, and fortunately for Jon Jones if Style Bender actually reaches that weight class and maintains his skill sets and near-perfect fluid style of combat, Jon Jones is going down mehnnn, KO! The guy's slender appearance they make many people underrate am to their own peril. But Style Bender is a big guy at 6ft 4, he has good reach and combined with his skills, he is very dangerous

Air Style Bender, the last Avatar of this era. His movement is so FLUID like air and so SLIPPERY like oil, you just can't catch and hold him. RIP in advance to Costa grin

Ayemileto:
Your point 1 and 4 are invalid, while point 2 can be argued.


Point 1 happens mostly when people DM for price and not otherwise like you're trying to claim. There are times I contact people for the details of a product, only to back off when they Mentioned the price. If they had mentioned the price all along, I wouldn't have sent them any DM in the first place. So, on this note your point one is completely off point.


4. Not putting prices won't prevent people from copying your advert or write up. I have witnessed this several times where the only thing different between 2 or more sales website or advert is just the price.

In fact, people can DM you for price, and still go ahead to copy your advert and disappear.

So, saying asking people to DM will prevent impersonation is actually off point as well.



Also, your point 2 can be argued as it goes the other way as well. There are times I have interest in purchasing a product but won't DM the buyer to ask for price. Instead, I will simply go on Jumia and checkout their prices.
you are only vouching for yourself as per your own shopping character, but the seller has to deal with hundreds of different people coming their way. As per impersonation, maybe you are not a steady seller in the online space. Same way scammers impersonate people's social media profile and use it to scam unsuspecting public, is the same way they impersonate adverts and try to scam people with it. Why do you think some online platforms use watermarks on their products pictures? The more info the scammer has at his fingertips, the better his chance of trying create an alternative advert to impersonate it. The car dealer that sold car to Bobrisky uses DM for Price on Instagram. He sells high end luxury cars like pure water, week in week out he his making sales, cars of 20M, 60M, 75M etc. If Call for Price is an issue for serious buyers he won't be selling so much, if Call for Price discourages serious buyers like you claim, he won't be posting SOLD every now and then with picture and video testimonials of the Buyer's that bought from him. Call for Price is a marketing strategy, simple. Some sellers use it, some don't. Just because some sellers now use it doesn't make them con artist or scammers and it doesn't drive away serious buyers that are ready to buy. These type of buyers will make the contact and if it works for them, they will buy.
