Some buyers don't really know how costly and difficult it is to ship stuffs...considering that our Nigerian government had restricted us to $100 spending limit per month for buying things abroad and if one is not grounded or have a working PayPal, he can't get these laptops being shipped down.

Rather than appreciate the efforts, they negotiate and castigate without realizing we're actually making a loss even in the profit we think we ought to make.

You're only talking from the seller's perspective. What about the buyer's perspective?
What you don't understand is that end users' or consumers' purpose of buying things is different from a retailer.
Regardless of whether you bought your goods at expensive prices or not, what consumers want is VALUE FOR MONEY.
Even if the OP sells that laptop for 20k, but the buyer can't find who to repair the laptop and it got more damaged within a few weeks, do you think the buyer would still believe s/he made a smart choice?

When consumers are buying products, what they want is a product that won't give them problems. Nobody would want to be penny-wise and pound-foolish.

For someone that claimed to be a businessman and he's shipping goods from abroad, to repair a product for 15k within few hours and make more money shouldn't be a problem.
In fact, it's a smart business.
But no. He doesn't want that. Why? Because he wants to swindle a buyer into buying a product that has defects and may not be able to get repaired.

90k Ibadan?

hi, anyone here.

60k, Ibadan?

DaveHert:
Okay I have to admit that I'm a dumb person. Let's leave it at that shall we? You can go now that you've made your point.

Lol.

DaveHert:
Omo, I'm a little confused. Did I mention anywhere in there that my laptop had a faulty hardware? Bro I said screen might need replacing... Stop acting like a smart ass.

If you have a trust problem or think everyone has ulterior motive then please keep that negativity with you and leave the damn thread. I've been on Nairaland way longer than you have and I've sold a few of my gadgets here... You don't see anyone following me around screaming.

I literally bought a TV with a line from @Sompto here on Nairaland because it was extremely cheap for a 40" smart tv. If something has a minor defect, people tend to sell it cheaper not because they are looking to scam you but to make a bargain deal. Grow up man.

Repair and sell for profit nau, sebi it's easier to repair and you can easily make more more money that way. Abi you wan talk say you no like money? Yeye dey smell.

Screen issue and screen carcass that is weak no be hardware problem? Oga, be sincere. You don try repair am before now, but you never see engineer wey sabi do am. Now you wan sell am to an unsuspecting buyer. Make person buy laptop after few months and no engineer to repair am, the thing don turn scrap.

latiephwald:
Yes ikorodu

Can it get to Ibadan?

DaveHert:
You see my problem...it's the ignorance in your comment "I'm ready to buy for 100k". Lol, the fact that you think a 100k would be able to buy this if the screen didn't have issues is laughable.

First off, the value of the laptop is 150k if I replaced the screen, but that is secondary. My original point is that the laptop is usable as it is, I have been using it with the screen like this for a year. So anyone desperate for a high spec laptop can buy it and use it as it is until when they do decide to change it. Even the most basic of Engineers can change screen, it is just a flex plug away. Now can you stop digging for holes where there aren't any? If it's not for you leave it alone. Simple.

Lol. so you can't repair the screen with 15k and get an additional 5k if it's that easier to repair or better still repair and sell for 150k, make an additional 55k?

I know your type.
Only a novice would buy and think he can repair it easily. By the time the buyer starts looking for who to repair, I hope he won't later sell it as scraps.

DaveHert:
Don't misunderstand me, the idea is that someone can get something high end for an affordable price. I could fix it at any time but that would defeat the purpose as I'd have to sell it for a more expensive price. If it's not for you simply leave it and move.

it's you that don't get it. Do you think it's easier to repair things in Naija? if it's, why not repair it yourself and make more money by increasing its price.

Someone will buy your laptop finish, to repair it go become wahala.
Oga, Engineers plenty wey no sabi jack. Either they use your laptop for more experiments or they keep telling you they can't find the right screen for the laptop.

REPAIR THE PROBLEMS FOR 15K LIKE YOU SAID.
I'M READY TO BUY FOR 100K

latiephwald:
I will give you 70k last

Your location in Lagos?

fk001:
Lol, do you know how many trailers full of food come to the south every week from the north?
Hundreds of trailers with a different type of foodstuffs loaded.


South can not produce food in commercial quantity, the precipitation and humidity are not favourable to the production of some kind of foodstuff, the soil factor is also not encouraging.

We need the north for foodstuff forget about all the mouth we are making upandan we are just trying to be brave so that the north will think we don't need them, but we do!!

Lol, did you at all study agricultural science in secondary school? have you been to farms in the north?

for your information, it is the SANDY soil we used in playing football here that they use for agriculture over there. They use human and cow shits plus conc gutter dirt as fertilizers to farm.

Truth be told, in terms of agriculture, North got nothing on Southern Nigeria. All their foods can be grown here, even cattle can survive here forget the fake tsetse flies bullshits.

North should please divert their produce to Cameroon and Niger.

DaveHert:
So if I decide to change the screen for 15k and add that to ur 60 = 75k... So you want to buy a laptop of that spec for 75k? That's not even half of the laptops worth.

repair and come back with another price.

If you can see clearly without the need of Glass, bros remove the glass. When you get the Job you can be using it.

It's too early to start using Glass when you never reach managerial level.


Dressing to the screening Venue is stated on the list.. Please check, blue short and shirt with white canvass.


Support staff wears uniform always.

Almost every one wears uniform in customs. Except those in CIU outside HQ (not always sha. But dem wear uniform)

Are we wearing the white shorts and shirt to the venue or we change into them at the venue?

TheWealthiest:
How about those wey dey use glasses, including support staff?

We also don't necessarily need to dress in certain way to the venue of screening?


Also, do support staff be wearing uniform all the time on the job?

Ejiksbooster:
All this english because someone priced an unboxed abi should I say fairly used laptop for 300k while your your pricetag is 400k. If you have good communication and marketing skills there should be room for negotiation and bargaining rather than dropping subtle insult at a potential customer. Know this and know peace.

Leave am now, on to say he dey sell overpriced laptop, he thinks he's the next Jeff Bezos.

habsydiamond:
This guy is the new deal mehn... And Abraham go talk say him better ppass this one nao.

Na farmers' league he dey. Make he come replicate am for England nau. That stupid Werner don turn defensive striker for Chelsea. Only God knows wetin this one go turn. He's just a white man Lukaku, same way Kai Havertz is a white man Malouda.

JAMO4REAL1:
Na God go punish the yeye Governor u can't protect ur people bcoz of 2nd term. Aketi u are a leader indeed Pls dnt going back I trust you Mr talk and do

Ma foh, Aketi is in his second term already. Na why he no to send.

What these people are telling us is that, our problem is not about ethnic issue, but rather class issue. Imagine, a whole Governor spitting nonsense.
