Nobody scammed you,you deserve it,since you have agreed on the price why keeping the seal,why waiting to reach home before opening it?,to cap it all,you signed a receipt that you tested it and it was OK,in this modern day?,and you went to school?,if I were the shop owner,if you come to my shop to make trouble, I will get you arrested and present my receipt to the police and you will turn the scammer.
It's your type that will buy cloth and wear it with the label,you wan brag say you buy new phone, Ode.

Yes o. By 5pm.i go get my refund.if they told me from start dat see o guy,its refurbished. I would understand. But selling a refurbished phone as brand new sealed.na scam.

martyns200:


Hopefully they don't give u stories when you go back by 5pm, next time when you buy new phones from reputable shops, even if it's pay before u get the phone, u open it immediately to see it's what u want that was sold to you and make sure u put the phone on rite there and charge it, if possible put your SIM in it to be sure it's a new working P phone. All the best by 5pm

Owner pleaded with me to come back for my refund after back and forth. I asked for another and open the seal nylon.it ws the sametin not new and seal not on pack before you open it. No sticker at the back or nylon. Its all used. So they selling refurbished phones as brand new and sealed. pe

The owner said i should come back by 5. So id be going back for refund. Yes they got me another phone and its all the same tin. D sticker has been cut,seal cut and has that celotape igbo marking on it.so they sell refurbished phones as brand new. I would be making order via konga or jumia

Akanimoh113:


That's good But Mainly they should refund your money not give a another phone cus it could also be refurbished too.
Why not order from Jumia (Wednesdays/Fridays), Get a Cheaper phone

TheEnlightenedO:


They all do the same thing my bro, they fix phones and reseal

How sure are you on this cos everyone on here saying whu not go to slot.slot.slot. i heard terrible tales concerning that brand name slot.
If its a uk used phone,why noy,but this shop am talking about had close to 50 phones sealed and locked ,people bought and left,some tested.however my hands landed on the wrong box.

Brushstrokes20:
Even slot sells refurbished!
The shithole is messed-up!

Lets just wait till 10am. The seller even said slot does the same thing.they replace it .so i will be waiting to test their intergrity today. You cant blame me ,im used to online orders from boxers to my toothbrush so it clouded my sense lf reasoning at that time that there are still online legit shops here,the seller told me to comeback this morning.we argued back and forth on phone for close to 30mins. So i later calm down and said i will be back to the shop tomorrow morning. Nigeria hard,i am only shocked.thank God say no be fufu .

lordlawee:
Ask them for a refund, if they are not ready to refund, then post the name of the shop here so others would not fall victim
Once you post the name of the shop, it will be A red flag

Its a complex by the leftside of mr biggs

Ibadanboyy:
See them forming macho behind phone screen. They wouldn't have done better than the op on a good day oo.. But Op no worry if na Iwo road ,you will be paid back so far na baba onilu complex. Ask of Garo.

Sure. I am only after do not accept if the seal is broken. Thats all i'm after.

GateofJoy:


Better. Goodluck to you.

Bro go to a shop that sell sealed,ane tell them to open it before paying. Thats unsealling it. If they will answer you.i am going back by 9.from there i enter slot.i got it cheap not knowing i got fooled. If im selling a product,my intergrity matters as against tomorrow. Why should i be bothered,the seller said they buy in bulk and i saw about close to 40 phones brand new sealed so i said this people cant be selling uk used,its my fault cos the buyer i had,had paid and thank god i unsealed it. I was shockes to meet the phone on and pack rough,not till i sae the back,no sticker of the imei,no backcase nylon on the phone,all i saw was a double tape .lol.

GateofJoy:


Who pays for what you haven't seen?

As soon as i get a replacement,i will be going to slot to buy a brand new one and sell the replacement or better still get my refund shaply. Its not my fault,i was used to getting phones from amazon.com,konga, so i felt its the same thing.but now my eyes don wide open.

GateofJoy:


I think the OP is just a jjc. Who buys a brand new phone without opening everything everywhere to see everything before payment?

Its a shop at iwo road by the side of mr biggs.
Im going back to ger a brand new one sealed,with double seal sticker. I have visited youtube already.i no fit for wohala o. Its either new one or refund.no time for talk.

PeachtreeReside:




No name of the shop or the person or business name ?

The seller has told me to come to a replacement. Its a big shop ,im not to bothered.last last i go enter slot.i felt it got it cheap.not knowing ita already been tampered with. This very good experience for me.though i didnt sleep well last nighr,bur God dey my side,im going back by 9

smasher1:


Why didn't you open it and bring it out. put your sim card and pocket it. Like the seller said, he may not be aware it was opened previously.

I was carried away cos i was used to getting orders online .i felt everyone is honest.im npt really too bothered. I wikl be going back by 9.
So i will know a refurbished phone and brsnd new one.some people sre saying note 8 nit in production. How about if they got them online. Well experience don make me smarter now,i trust no one again. I got carried away thats all. Thank God i have not sold it to the person that placed order. I will know a brand new and used phone now. The only ish is i didnt test it br leaving cos i assumed its brand new.

emmanuelewumi:



I have been buying my phones from Slot for almost 20 years.

Buy from Slot and you will be sure of what you have bought

Its all my fault,i bought it brand new for 135k and was intending to resell for 170k,i felt everyone was honest as i am,the guy has called me enough times to apologise.i will be going back there by 9am. If i dont see brand new phone that is sealed is not broken.i go shine my eyes,if after that i got a brand new one.i would expose the shop. This shop am talking about are selling iphones,samsungs only.sealed. sealed.na me Bleep up sha. Wilk keep thread updated

I wanted to resell as unopened snd still sealed that was why i told not to open ot. Well o will be going back tomorrow and will get a replacement. I have already visited youtube so without the seal sticker i know its refurbished.

Before U Speak Latin Join, who sol athis item to You? Iwo Road, in which State? Why Didn't You open and inspect what you are buying in d Shop at once.? How true is ur Story?

Nigerians are crooks

Agbo mix

I am very devastated. Its a different thing if i got uk used. However it was sealed as brand new so i wasnt bothered. Not knowing i was scammed. The shop is owned by an igbo man and he claimed he bought it brand new.now im scared that the one they will give me tomorrow will still be refurbished and nicely sealed as brand new. I went to a shop withh my intention to buy a brand new never before used phone and i paid via real transfer .but look at what i was giving. Thats the phone as i got it from the shop before tearing away the nylon

Hello nairalanders. I would love to share my bitter experience today. It all happened by 5.30pm. I had a chat with a seller on jiji and we agreed on a price. I got to his shop and inspectred and saw all phones were sealed. So a receipt was issued and it was written tested and okay. I paid through transfer and left thanking god i managed to get a brand new phone.

By the time i got back home, I tore the nylon as usual. However i heard a sound . I opened the box and saw the phone had flipped. I took out the screen protector, the phone was on. Inshort the phone was a refurbished phone. I felt sad and scammed. I called the shop and they start telling me sorry, that they did not know its refurbished .but i saw them all sealed in nylon. I later discover that the seal tape was missing. The imei sticker at the back was missing, lo and behold the screen was poorly glued. They promised to replace a brand new one. Now the question is how will i be sure brand new one is brand new one.

Nigerian crooks can get anywhere to get the seal sticker before opening it as brand new. I feel so stupid right now. All this happened at iwo road, inside a nice shop to fool ppl. I feel so ashmed. i paid 135k but got refurbished phone of 70k worth.
