Its weekend obviously, I have some spare time too, so i want to discuss this your wickedness to your countryman cos you wan sell naija used Toyota, have you no shame? Should i buy you some?

socialmerchant:


I see some guys dragging dru23 as if they haven’t done worse. We are only knowing about his own past because he revealed it.
How many of you guys are bold enough to reveal bad things they’ve done in the past on a platform like this?
You all should rest ABEG

dru23:


Thank you my brother... Don't mind Valarinz of a guy.

valarinz:



I can tell you for free, i have never and will never do what that guy did, im an active dealer and you can imagine I'm not afraid to challenge dru on a public forum, check how long I've been in the biz and check if anyone has opened a single thread on NL to complain i defrauded them

That said, if you are new to NL just sit back and don't dabble, obviously I'm putting on the heat cos of the person involved, if there's one thing he's good at, then its always insulting Nigerians and calling us quacks, shady, incompetent, dubious, lazy and manners or negative words.

Now its interesting to note that our dear angel is worse than what he always calls us

socialmerchant:


He was under no pressure to tell us about his dirty past, was he?
He obviously isn’t proud of what he did and I put it to you that nobody is spotless, not even you.

valarinz:


Whats he minding me for, how about you say something that makes it even look like you have a little remorse for being a fraud and yet bragging about it on a public forum

Posting memes and trying to change topics is not a sign of intelligence, its the opposite actually

valarinz:


My brother, it slipped out, he didn't "tell" that part voluntarily

Let me hint you, the idea was to kind of paint a scenario where 20W50 oil is vilified to validate his current synthetic oil sales drive, it's terribly backfired, he didnt think it through thoroughly and i bet he wishes he can take it back now

So stop saying it like the guy was honest and courageous enough to tell us what he did wrong, ok?

Ok, Oga Oil hawker aka shady dealer, your incoherent responses is enough for me now, the punch has been well dished out and well received, time for me to allow you to ramble and lament in peace, till next time

My experience from my uber cars .. During my early yes of uber with no experience with car maintenance. I used a 2003 camry at the time on my fleet. I was using 20w50 xhp The engine kept shorting oil with no sign of leaks on the ground and little white smoke coming out at morning start up very little smoke.

So my mechanic advice to top the engine with 20w50 and sell the car.. So anytime a buyer comes to look at the car . we start the car up to clear up the smoke before any buyer shows up . And that is how we were able to sell the car .. And from there on I vowed never to use 20w50 oil again.......

Eddee:


Surprise, surprise- the chief proponent of integrity for oil and car sales finally coming out of the closet. You should bury your head in the sand in shame, you’ve admitted to defrauding someone who trusted you. Well, Nemo dat quod non habet!

dru23:



This is not a good sign at all . if there was sign of leak on the ground . Than good news at least u can try to trace the leak ... But if there is no sign of any leaks at all .. It means the oil is burning somewhere and more than likely the engine is bad .. You can always ask for a second opinion .........what type of oil were u using?

I spoke about that early on .. I was accused of trying to market oyel .. I just shook my head...

One guy stated that he has been using 20w50 for his 2007 corolla . And he changes oil every 2k miles and his engine runs quiet etc ........

At times thicker oil will keep engine noise down. It does not solve that problem.. At times mechanic will use 20w50 to silence a knocking engine sound. Depending how bad the sound is .....it might work and at times it works well enough to fool any suspecting buyers......

xperiencelove:

Chai! This is evil. That was how one guy was arguing with me few days ago about using 20W 50 for Camry 05 and change it every 2k miles. 20W 50 is a silent killer for any Camry from 03 upward. Also I do advice people to never buy ANY Nigeria used car that the owner doesn't use factory recommended oil.

Change topic ...lolz

How many engines of does tokunbo xc90 have u change... You stated that you let any potential buyers know of such changes.......

My theory here is most of those xc90 are auctions vehicle.. Meaning from the ones that have engine issues to blown gaskets. Am sure when u do get them u change the engine without letting the buyers know of such. Now in my case, it is different because I avoid auctions cars as much and deal with private sellers that want to sell the vehicle..........

Now from experience from doing uber and selling cars. You have mechanics that are so good in replacing engine that when a buyer comes, he / she will not know the difference if engine has been replace .. It takes a patient mechanic to detect any such things..so all that bull sh#t u said u let buyers know of any changes like engine replacement to be specific is all smoke and mirrors

dru23:


I have preached over and over for car buyers to do their due diligence when u buying cars .. Few hear most don't ......

When I say Toyota is the most abused cars especially naija used nobody wan hear.. When people see used Toyota for sale , they loose their senses. And forget to due diligence.....

And when buyers see good deals that is worth the money. The buyers will start pricing the car like nonsense... So it is tough market for both parties...

Aren't you the one that knows a Volvo engine seller in ladipo ... Haven't u bought engines for your tokunbo Volvo before ... Was the buyer aware that u bought a tokunbo engine at ladipo before selling the car

GAZZUZZ:


This is so sad.



Where do Foreign used parts popularly called tokumbor come from?

They are mostly parts from accidented and salvaged vehicles from Europe, Canada and Japan, USA . Etc

The only reason why most people sell used cars with mechanical issues in the USA is because of the cost of LABOUR! Labour is cheap here in Nigeria and so you can buy a Camry with a bad engine for 1000 bucks, ship it real cheap here.

Buying tokumbor engines is even a good thing since you didn't say he repaired them.

Please everyone ignore me,
I just want to book space for follow up.. thanks

zabimaru:


We will ignore you but I implore you to perform due diligence when dealing with dru.
If possible taste the synthetic oil before pouring in your engine, it might be POWER oil mixed with grease.

zabimaru:


Baba you needn't explain anything for someone who has an insanely innate affinity for fraud.

What's interesting is his lack of remorse after admitting to the premeditated fraud.

Another interesting thing is the fact that someone is sharing sentiments with a fraud, someone is actually sympathising with a fraudster. Isn't that something worthy of noting? Someone's excuse why his Lord committed fraud is that other's are doing it.


Sickening.
