Are we suppose to guess prices or we have to call you first just before we can have an idea of price? I also checked your BMW, no price, why do you dealers make life more difficult? If your price is reasonable you shouldn't be afraid to put it online. |

franksam2009: the figures you are calling is just wow!!!!, Did they vandalised the whole car with engine or what? Was it parked inside a compound or at the drivers resident? it's crazy, if you drive the south African version toyota corolla 2011 and above, better secure it properly because the parts are very expensive. The ecu is very scarce and expensive compared to the American version, the radio, the door panels and the dashboard trims. |

AjStylles: How Gazzuzz Nearly Ripped Me Off 50k!
Ordinarily, I wouldn't put this here because I know the normal Nigerian syndrome of always attacking people when you criticize those they hero worship. But anyways, who cares.
The major reason I decided to put this out here is that I believe that as this Gazzuzz is a known mechanic on this Nairaland, a lot of people might have have fallen for his antics thinking that he is a pro and all that. Many people take whatever he says as the final and thats why he feeds and preys on the gullible.
Recently I contacted gazzuzz that my corolla was vandalized and I needed repairs to be done on it. He asked me what was taken in it. I told him that I lost my brainbox and all four power window controllers. I now told him I needed them replaced and requested the price for everything. Gazzuzz told me that he changes brainbox with 50,000 and Power windows for 30,000. Total of 80,000! As usual with his antics, he was making subtle statements to make me feel that what he does is different from what others does and he is this perfect mechanic. If you observe, most of his threads is always about Kazeem this and that. I became weak in the spirit. Because I thought that I really lost a lot to this armed robbers. I felt that as he is an "Authority" in this line, what he says is the truth.
3 days ago, I decided to use my hand and make some research. Guess what? I went to First Gate at Agidinbi based on a friends recommendation. Come and see Sea of Mechanics looking for work! With only 30,000, I was able to replace all the power windows and the brainbox! With extra 5k, I changed the back glass that was broken! Aint God a miracle worker?
This implies that Gazzuzz was actually willing to rip me off by a whole 50k!
Like I said earlier, am putting this out here for others to learn from my experience. Most of these Lagos mechnics are armed robbers and thieves! Please Nairalanders, always use your hand and do some research. Do not allow petty mechanics to rip you off. That they know a thing or two about the computronics of cars does not make them to be better than those without formal education. Ask questions always and look for other alternatives.
Most of these so called mechanics we look down as road sides or Kazeems are actually better than the so called experts. The so called experts will use packaging and rip you off your hard earned cash. If not that I was willing to step out and ask questions, I would have been boxed into a corner by this huge ripoff called Gazzuzz.
N.B To those who hero worship him always, have you ever wondered if he really gives a fvck about you or just sees you another cash cow that vomits money for him? Have you taken your time to research on what he sells to you and there validity? Or just because he can speak English and knows one or two about car computronics, every other person is a Kazeem like he paints them? If were to go by his logic, how come a so called Kazeem saved me from his daylight robbery? I am not a fan of gazzuzz because of the kind of words and vulgar language he uses all over the thread but I respect his technical prowes from following his threads, the fact thay the price is different doesn't mean he tried to reap you off, I have 6 vehicles on the ehailing platform, 2 of them are 2012 Corolla which I bought from my banks auction and they are in very good condition, 2 weeks ago one of the corolla was vandalized, I sent my mech to ladipo to inquire for the cost of part and it came to a total of 364k, for some reasons I wasn't comfortable with the guy when he brought them, it seems like he stole them from another vehicle, I paid his transport and dashed him additional 5k, I contacted Toyota Nigeria (elizade) and total cost of repairs was 1. 2m, yes that much. Anyway I forwarded it to the insurance company and they took the vehicle e after investigation and fixed it, they just returned the vehicle yesterday evening with everything fixed, I saw the invoice in the vehicle, they eventually fixed it for 970k, that's a 3rd price. If you were in my position, would you say toyota tried to reap me off? Or the third company that finally fixed it tried to reap me off since it's also higher than the 364k from ladipo,. Price difference is not enough reason to accuse him of extortion, please take this down to avoid another series of back and forth clashes. Thank you. |

Why call people bastard, mad etc, how were you brought up young man?

If u want me to open this file,u won't like it as it will damage ur already patcher reputation more.Kindly stop private chatting me and allow the sleeping dog lie. Now I'm beginning to think that's what he did before the Scot guy came out and became toothless. He must have sent him several mails too, I actually did see him as a very mature person before now but from his rants here i don't know what to think anymore, I only cautioned him not to address everybody as "MAD" he trolled me. |

GAZZUZZ: cc: gathering of MAD people. Common gazuz you don''t you need to generalize with such language, I don't know how old you are, I've spoken to you twice on phone and you sounded like a mature man, i stopped commenting on this thread when someone complained about his wife being harrased by a driver and you insinuated she's flirted with him and lacked morals, as a married man I was very disappointed but unfortunately you happen to have a lot of blind followers who never see anything wrong even if you are (no man is perfect), I just pray you grow up and get married some day to understand the importance of family and respecting your protecting your wife. Being a mechanic doesn't mean you should be loose with your tongue, I've seen very responsible married mechanics. Have a great and productive week. |

gazzuz: Go back and read from when it started. The demon had no clue what happened, just dances to any tune with a negative gazzuzz Vibe on it, the other one with a crappy civic had an idea. But wait a bit Mr Scot the final buyer will address all of you as I have spoken to him. Thanks for the clarification. |

gazzuz: It's enough to advice potential buyers, I cannot decide if they will pay or not, it's up to them. you might be lucky to get a Scot  With due respect sir, if you charge 20k for inspection, you should do more than advice, he should have totally discouraged the dude from buying the vehicle, besides the underlying issues with the vehicle, it is over priced 820k for a used kia is too much even if the car were in good condition how much less without engine and Trans, the other dude that talks alot claim you were also paid by the car owner, is this true? If it is, I don't think you were fair with the inspection sir. |
Business › Re: If You Are Uber Partner In Lagos, Please Share Your Experience Here by Stake2odds: 5:56pm On Jan 05, 2019 |
I am not taking sides but if someone pays you for inspection, you're supposed to totally discourage them or stop them from buying a dead car, how can a kia which you claim transmission and engine is bad cost as much as 820k? I am suspecting the mechanic he took for inspection must have compromised, owner already bribed him behind. |
