Landforce1:
Last week, I put up my phone for sale on . On Thursday, a guy called me, asked if the phone was still available. We negotiated on the price and had an agreement. The only issue was that, he was in Enugu while I, in Anambra. I agreed to send the phone over to my friend in Enugu who will help finalize the deal. On Friday, I reached out to the buyer and informed him I was going to do the waybill he politely asked me to send him my friend's number which I did after I had sent the phone via waybill. In addition I sent the buyers number to my friend too.

My friend told me he had called the buyer to establish contact so it would be much easier to deal with him when the phone arrives. Though the waybill company wasted a lot of time and the phone got to Enugu around 4pm. My friend called the buyer and he said he was busy that he would call back leta.

He never called back. It really got me worried later that Friday night I called the buyer to get why he didn't reach out again and was surprised when he asked me who I was. Sha, I felt it was a mixed up so introduced myself. He told me he was busy sha he would call back. He still didn't call back. I was very furious so I sent him a text informing him that the phone would be sent back if he doesn't make contact the following morning.

In the morning on Saturday that's yesterday he called me and apologized for the previous day. He then assured me he would reach out to my friend before noon so that they could finalize the exchange... Fast forward to 3pm on Saturday, he never reached out.

I called him and yet again he asked me who I was. Still maintaining my cool, I told him about our previous conversations but this time, he said he was at a wedding that he would reach out later that evening. Till now he hasn't called.

I've been trying to wrap my head around what his motive could be but I'm still not finding a good explanation for his actions.

Meanwhile, while we were negotiating on the price I told him I was using the said phone and I would be resetting my personal data before sending the phone over to him. I asked him to tell me should he change his mind about buying the phone so that I don't lose both my data and waybill money. He assured me he was serious with his intentions to buy the phone.

This night being Sunday, I called again but he aggressively said I was disturbing him so he blocked me.

The dude is probably a fraudster. He knly backed out because you sent the phone to your friend instead of directly sending it to him.

Me I didn't see where the op called him a scammer o

That's why making use of escrow is better here so nobody will waste another persons time

So, wetin e use?

Have experience same too even in the same city... The deal was to swap smartphones... We talk the morning of the deal day o... I said afternoon he was cool with it... Afternoon reach nigga was acting strange... Stop replying to chat or picking up the only time he answered couldn't hear him thank God i never format the phone... He was the one acting desperately o... People just dey

The buyer should need the goods more than the seller needs the money and the seller should be the one to decide the meeting point of exchange not sending via waybills, waybills should only be for customers recommended by other customers one has been having business with and trust.

If you are into e-commerce you will understand this is a normal thing .
A buyer will call to place an order, disturb you to fulfill the order, you will call him to be sure if he is buying before dispatching, he will give you his 100% affirmation, you will reach dispatch venue ,he/she will either not pick your call, pretends he doesn't know you, blacklist you or bodly tell you he is not interested again.

The motives behind this action is what iam yet to wrap my head around .

This is prevalent among buyers from Kogi and Benue (those who are into e-commerce can relate to this)

TarOrfeeek:
You were even acting very desperate.

Sending heartbreak emoji to someone who wants to buy your phone.

I've put my phone on here for sale one time. Buyer came with hilux and had finished counting the raw cash.

I changed my mind on the spot. NO.

Bros, no vex. I no dey sell again.

Him go, me I go. Nobody lose data or money.

Seems you are still not getting it" The seller said he wipes his phone memory and still pay for the waybill and before he did that he already notify the buyer" Now you can compare it with your own situation like you went out somewhere close and convenient to transact and you easily change your mind' That one is normal cos you didn't lose anything compare to someone who invested on selling his item! Reason am

hahahaha phone that will soon phase out abeg swap it with Alcatel phone

People can be funny. This reminds me of my senior in secondary school whom I met about two weeks ago around Aguda. She was already looking about twenty years older than I despite the that she was just two years older. She told me her jeep was parked somewhere, I knew it was just to pass some info. We exchanged nos nd the next day senior Yemisi called to tell me she was close to my street that she came to see a cousin and she wanted to see me for something. She came n was entertained only to tell me her dad died that morning and she had just paid 7.2million naira for goods and she needed 10k to travel to the village fast that she would transfer it to my account. I gave her the money only for her to demand for another 10k which I still gave her. She called to tell me her dad had been buried and that I should please send money for her transport back that she had forwarded my acct details to her salesgirl n instructed her to pay into the account. I sent her 5k. Sis Yemisi got back to Lagos ( according to her. Who knows if she truly travelled sef?) and called to thank me only for her to say "aburo,sister e o ma ti i jeun lataaro" it was then I started feeling I could have been scammed. Ever since then she has not been picking my calls.
This is why people atimes don't help cos you may not know who is being honest. I did it not because I was foolish bit cos I felt I was helping someone in need. To her now,she has succeeded in scamming me but she doesn't know there's reward for all we do.

There has been no sc detected by your write up. If this guy should sue you for defamation of character especially with the fact you brought his phone number to a public forum, you will never survive it.


Say you're in desperate need of money and he played on your desperation and wasted your time and energy, that doesn't him a scammer.

This is why many sellers prefer pay before delivery.

Many customers are mean. That was how one asked me to deliver hair after she had seen pictures, agreed on price etc. I had to go all the way to Lagos Island from Ilupeju went to meet her in Ojota and when I got there she said, "I will call you when I'm ready. I just wanted to touch it".

That's why is advisable to do business around your vicinity anything beyond States I nor do so op get sense next time that any phone auctioning outside your state is a no deal except if the person agrees to come to your location.

some ppl na werey I swear! WTF

He never mentioned the buyer to be a scammer, he only shared his bitter experience with a prospective buyer.

Buyer wey get demantia

Landforce1:
some ppl na werey I swear! WTF

You are also to be blamed. Your friend called him to establish contact and he replied that he was BUSY…never called back!…you called him after that and he claimed not to know who you were!….I’ll be suspicious if I was you…he should’ve saved your no at least till the deal has been concluded…I believe he saved it but let’s give him benefit of the doubt…you called back and he still claimed not to know you….RED FLAG…He was no serious customer.

You should’ve ended the deal when he started acting awkward but you didn’t. Retrieve your phone and look for another buyer…you do your business quietly and no need to bring this online.

Buyer probably changed his mind but didn’t know how to communicate that…selfish and inconsiderate him.

Lordforce/seller saw the signs but he wanted to sell at all cost. He was thinking of the profit, thoughts of losing money via waybill and sending the phone back to him. Buyer was a very awkward person but Lordforce was a nuisance in the deal.

In deals like this, any red flag from either side should terminate the deal.

I lost over 80gb of data I couldn't back up
Plus cost of waybill to and fro Enugu.
I wasted my time and that of my friend who picked the phone at enugu

spinna:

When my friend called him to establish contact. He was calm and told my friend to reach him immediately the phone gets to him. Then, he started acting up when the phone had gotten to my friend. I've lost everything so i felt it was wiser to salvage the situation since sending the phone back would be a loss for me.

Op na you do yourself, that buyer is a fool, you should know a fool when you see one, he never wanted to buy that your phone ,he just want to mess you up for no reason, last week I sold my phone on Facebook marketplace, one I put it there many Will send you messages as if they are interested, some will be just to ask you silly questions, some will collect your number and start telling you where to come and meet them as if I be mumu ,if you come out there they no come buy am nko or you even fall for arm robber hand , how I do my own is simple I will write my location there where we are going to meet up , if you are really in need of that phone you will come , I sold my phone later to a married man who wanted to buy a phone for his wife , and the man had to come and meet me in my location with his car , even after the man started coming I got another guy whom was very serious but that evening he contacted his sister to come to my location to pick the phone up before this married man finally came in the evening, you are the seller man you have to be wise as a business man

michlins:
sir, I do business online and this is part of what I see daily. Someone will call and text you with him pointing to being serious. You will send samples and explain how to achieve perfection on the job. He will accept everything and give the job to someone else. It's not scam brother

And when all that was happening, were you loosing money for transporting said products?
You people talk anyhow sha.

Mine was different. Few years ago I contacted someone who posted a phone ad and we agreed to meet at a popular restaurant. Called the Weyrey B4 I moved and he told me he was there. Got there and the SOB refused to pick call till I left lol



Wherever you are just know that you Will not die well

Maj196:
You're are desperate and the guy will feel the phone isn't worth it.

You guys keep missing the part where he said he cleared the phone's data and had to way bill the phone with his own money. Why won't he act that way?
