Technology MarketRe: My experience buying a used device, Always check properly and make no assumption by thegame(m): 6:17pm On Mar 23, 2017

Chief Chief! Lemme sef be like you, so i'd get brand new each time. On the plus side, one or two people will see this and be saved. Just imagine I had taken money from someone and bought this phone for the person? I'm sure someone might have been saved by reading this post, On a greater note, I've met quite a number of helpful Nairalanders here and truly y'all are awesome. The support alone is overwhelming, I'm sure if we have each others back like this everyday only good things can happen in this country.

Thanks to everyone who contributed on this matter, might have lost some money but what I feel right now is way greater than the money lost.
Most times it's not about too much money honestly, its about avoiding the heartache and disappointment. True, there are plenty honest traders here and I have met some too. I'm sure you have raised awareness about this and any potential customer will inspect cautiously. The laptop guy also, I still remember his ID cos he did something like this to his customer and would advise anyone to thread with caution when dealing with him. Same with some posters on auto section.

My point is, just salvage whatever you can and if you can get a refund, just get it, let the rest go and move on. All the wahala you have gone through cannot be duly compensated anyway but you have made other buyers aware of this act.

lol, its all fraud, different levels but still fraud. Na clap them dey take enter dance.
Lol, defrauded but still has his sense of humor. Lmao. Na clap dem dey take enter dance abi? Okay we hear you

Sorry about your phone tho. This is one reason I will never enter any shop in CV and buy a UK used phone or whatever. I never pray to even risk being that unlucky. It's brand new anytime I enter CV and even from trusted big shops. These U.K. Used people are all liars. Cos some don't even know what they are selling. They are just looking for the next lucky/unlucky victim, not customer

The other day, on this same NL, one said he sells laptops as imported, dumbtalk. The unlucky Buyer got home and discovered laptop doesn't charge beyond a particular percentage/mark.

I will advise you just change the phone and move on and NEVER patronize such people again.
Car TalkRe: Mercedes Benz E350 (2006) Vs C240 (2006) Which Should I Buy? by thegame(m): 8:20pm On Mar 22, 2017
This, perhaps, is the simplest comparison i have come across on Nairaland.

You are comparing a bigger and smaller car, same model year, different class, different sizes, same maker. The novice answer would be the c class which is the little brother in everything. E is the big bro.

It's like comparing corolla and Camry.

Good luck
PhonesRe: Help! My Ipad Air Gets Hot! by thegame(m): 6:14am On Mar 22, 2017
Every device gets hot when it's in use.
Most gadgets get really hot under heavy processor usage. You are playing game and you don't want your iPad to get hot? Why? Doesn't your engine get hot when you are driving?
Don't fret, don't panic. It won't explode.

Oya you too Mr olu, fowo wonu. No vex. I didn't mean any harm sha. Just stated the obvious. And ur limited badge wasn't clear too. good luck though

olumydeade:
hey bro , I'm not a rude type .. he caused it ..
Let me guess! I caused it by saying you want an innocent nairalander to pay for your flight ticket. And that no wonder you didn't wanna state price. Right?

And your respectful comment was to tell me to shut the fk up. Kindly use your educated brain and state who was rude first.

I admit I could have simply ignored thread but the number of you independent sellers too scared to put up price cos you are definitely sure it's outrageous is increasing by the day and you guessed right, y'all blame dollar. Nairaland used to be better than this. and IMO, if you are not a seller or main trader, just leave the business for the experts. You claim limited edition but no proof of it.

Thank jare bro , don't mind that man .. besides , the new one for mine is not $200 it sold for $400 to $500 mine is the Original Limited edition ..#RogerTHAT
So you are one of those uncultured children that watch tv and say as they hear ehn. You called me a negro. I assume you are white or pink, right? Ideally I wasn't gonna reply you but someone else corroborated my findings, that headphone you posted isn't damn limited nor that expensive, plus it's used. But since you asked, will give it to you, dummie.

I can't afford it cos the goal isn't to look rich, it is to actiually be. Original limited edition my a$$.

The only part that got me really angry was the response... IT IS FOR LOCAL CONSUMPTION, not for export.

What nonsense!

Are you saying we deserve less quality and more unsuitable composition than the whites? There should be an #occupyNBC movement. This is an insult to our existence and money
Car TalkRe: Help Decide Between This Two Cars.lexus GS300 2006 and. Acura tex 2009 by thegame(m): 10:59pm On Mar 16, 2017
Oga have you bought any of these cars or you are still waiting for reviews?

The GS looks heavier and more solid though I think Acura would be cheaper to purchase and more expensive to maintain. Just My thoughts.

CelebritiesRe: Laura Ikeji Begs Linda For A Range Rover Birthday Present (photo) by thegame(m):
morbeta:
This woman just messed her husband up indirectly, even though we know the husband is also dependant on his brother.
and the problem is, today's brides or our 21st century ladies will see nothing wrong in this stunt. she loudly disrespected her husband and makes it look like he cant provide for her needs, that they may even both need her sister to survive. i would have said asking papilo would be better but it still would be disrespecting the husband. her happiness this birthday is obviously tied to this Range Rover. now no matter the stunt the husband pulls to satisfy and make his wife happy, i just pray she gets truly happy and satisfied and enjoy her birthday, with or without the Range Rover and not bruise the oga's ego
Car TalkRe: How Can I Remove Maintenance Required "MAINT REQUIRED" by thegame(m): 11:16pm On Mar 07, 2017
autotrader2:
I don't care if you have a Venza or Lexus or whatever, if you put in some Vegetable oil, you will have those lights on your dashboard. I only tried to let the OP know that the recommended Oil for his Venza is the Toyota Motor Oil. Do you have a problem with that?
Now, I think we have a misunderstanding here. it's either you are missing the point, or you are mistaken or you are deliberately trying to misinform others. You see, I don't know and I am not sure about other brands but MAINT REQD light will never come up on a TOYOTA as a result of wrong oil. It has to do with mileage of servicing and should be reset at every service. Check Engine and other lights may pop up but this particular MAINT REQD in a TOYOTA has nothing to do with type of oil. That's what most people here are tying to point out to you. But it seems you care more more about being right than corrected.
Car TalkRe: How Can I Remove Maintenance Required "MAINT REQUIRED" by thegame(m): 2:24pm On Mar 07, 2017
autotrader2:
And you're incredibly stupid for jumping in here like that.
I have stated times without number about the substance of what I'm talking about. I won't be surprised if you're Kashif with another moniker. Cannot handle arguments without insults. What a Buffoon. Go learn how to spell maintenance before calling anyone ignorant
It's disappointing how Nigerian traders behave this way. Please what is the difference between you and the guy's mechanic? So if he had shown up at your store now asking to help clear this light, you would have sold him a new set of engine oil before you cleared for him? Or what exactly? This had nothing to do with oil. I think it's not far from the truth to say Toyota will always be Toyota, no matter the tweaking.
@op, anyway, follow the steps as above, ignition key turning and so on. Same as my Camry whenever I reset it. I used google as guide though. It's pretty easy.
Also, note that even if you service your car at 4,000 miles, and you don't reset it, it will still come up after the remaining 1000 miles out of the 5k if it wasn't reset. Just so u know before another trader tries to cash in on your gullibility. It's not that you should go and do another servicing o, it was cos u didn't reset it earlier

Cheers.

Your friend can browse but he cannot open a free Nairaland account that you don't even need to remember the passwordhuh
Keep telling yourself that.
All I know is, LYth has stained this transaction and every prospective buyer already wary of second hand games will be more skeptical dealing with you especially.

Show me your friend and I will tell you who you are.

You should have been honest the first time. the Internet never forgets.

And you sound proud. If you aren't broke, why you selling? Why not just give one of your cousins?

Car TalkRe: How I Was Trampled By A G-wag G63 AMG At Akure-owo Axis. by thegame(m): 8:57pm On Jan 29, 2017
@ OP, let me tell you a story.

In 2012 when I was still a youth corper, I used to escape to Lagos a lot from serving town, osogbo in osun state to enjoy my gidi life as a proper Lagos boy. Our CDs used to be on Thursdays so whenever I run to Lagos on weekends, I usually just leave Thursday morning so I can make it to my CDS meeting latest by 9. Now note, I have never missed my meeting or gotten there late despite leaving Thursday mornings. I start my journey around 5:30/40 and I make it down before 9. I used to drive a well maintained Camry 2.2 aka Diamond and My car was living the life.

Now on this thursday, I had gotten to Iwo road around 8am and I was doing about 140/50 on that stretch, heading towards gbongan. At that speed, it's not speedometer you will fix your eyes on but the road. I looked in my center mirror and I saw AN ANGEL EYES BMW 5 Series GRAN TURISMO coming behind me, it was a 530 or 535i, not so sure. I thought the guy would be with me in bout a min or two or at least make him sweat a little, before I could say jack, dude had breezed past me. I will never forget that day and despite me being a benz person, I actually appreciated BMW that day. That particular car is unique.i doubt any of their other cars could have had the guts to overtake me that way on that day due to our roads and all but dude did it and I never saw him past the next 4 seconds. Vroom, my uncle was gone.

Morale of the story is, a car needs a befitting driver. If you overtake one person driving a g63 and/or any turbo engine, you were only being allowed to play or maybe show off. Those stuff under the hood are not your mates.

Hope my story will make you chill the next time you see a solid German on the road. And just honk your horn as a show of respect for allowing you pass. grin
Car TalkRe: Does Ac Really Consume Fuel? by thegame(m): 8:27pm On Jan 29, 2017
My brother, so because you want to save what will not even be up to 5 litres per day, you will suffer in hot sun, let dust fill your car seats, choke yourself with the toxic fumes from other ill-maintained vehicles, refuse to enjoy the music blasting from your car due to noise pollution from other cars and even road noise(on the expressway), get uncontrollable air dragging your car and sanity with you while speeding, amongst other things? ? ?
I don't think it is worth the whole hassle. If your car has a good AC, please use it. Life is too short for all these mediocre stuff. If your car consumes so much fuel with AC on, then have it fixed.
