Naturalle:
@OP - From your write-up, I observed the following;

1. You have been shopping for used items from deal sites and expecting them to come as 'brand new' (perhaps olx.com). Please note that deal sites are not the same as regular stores.
2. You are unaware of the existence of a 'Return Policy' which you can use whenever you are dissatisfied with a purchase.
3. You are unaware of the 'Convenience factor' online shopping provides. Its the alternative to moving from one market stall to another, lifting the heavy load whilst still worrying about transportation to your destination. Surely the paltry difference in price of an online store vs the offline alternative will not break the bank.
4. You are also unaware that online stores partner with local merchants to sell their products to customers. Contrary to your opinion of discouraging SME's, they open up wider distribution channels for the lace merchant who could only sell to customers that come to Balogun market to reach a customer as far as calabar.
5. Regarding the issue of quality that you raised, Online Stores have to provide the same warranties for a product that a regular store provides, trust me, you cannot be repackaging products and passing them off as originals when you have a RETURN POLICY that protects the customers.
6. Regarding profitability, it is a well known fact that most online stores in Nigeria are yet to 'break even' talkless of turning a profit. So yes, the discount is very real.

In a nutshell, your summations are uninformed.

Peace!

1. When l was having a discussion with a lady. She told me that when she check the price of a particular material in the Internet and when she unknowingly went to the product dealer store.
2. Trade fair.
Now without wasting much of your time. This are what online stores do that you think are right

1. They are Wholesalers but sell higher than Retailers(are you surprised, then make enquire).
2. Some items you buy cheap online are either old one or given as gifts, charity etc.
3. Don’t be fooled by the discount because they are not fool to loose profit.
4. Old items but repackaged in a new box (you know what l mean).
5. Some products are not in the same grade with the original products (Quality Please).
6. Some are used as charity to some particular region but sold to you.
7. They are agents for companies from other countries.
8. They discourage Small scale and Medium Enterprise in an unknowingly way (this is a very complex issue which need a great understanding to the subject matter).
9. Welcome to the business world were you have to survive. So ..........

"5. Be his wh.ore" was all u needed to say

from my repeated practical experience of 3G for both networks,
glo = night bus etisalat = airplane
although etisalat does not have 3g in some places

Dhavido:
I've used both and I think it depends on the location. I was only getting 3G on my phone when using etisalat but I'm now getting H+ on glo. H+ also mean 3.5G

dollarlander:
A beg Etisalat na baba ogbonge gidigba. I was disappointed when I went back to Glo data plan. It was a very bad experience. I went back to Etisalat.

Abatsam111:
Your location dictates the speed.
For Example, Glo is the fastest in my area, but when i get to another area, it may become slowish.

Kyase:
Etisalat is the fastest but when it comes to downloading, airtel is the boss.
