Simple Secret Of Buying Stuff At Idumota Market Lagos by StoneColdBiceps(m): 5:35pm On Dec 01, 2014 |
So you loved Idumota market and you loved to shop stuffs at idumota market? Ok.... Dat stuffs u tink u bought cheap on d street or shops along Nnamdi Azikiwe street and other outer part of Idumota market, so you think u got it for cheap!? Ok... I've bought packs of singlets, body cream, cologn/perfume always on d outside till my babe told me to go inner shops, and wolla dey are almost half d prices i bought on d outside street shops of the market! So, This are the secret of buying relatively cheap at idumota market specially if ur a newbie in d market... Any stuff u buy along the road on d outside of d main idumota market is uhhhh, ohhhh, hmmmm cheap! But if u go a little further inside d marker dat same stuff u but on d outer marker is relatively cheaper wit like maybe #300 difference!...and if u decided to go a little more further into d market u'll get dat stuff dats relatively cheaper by #300 for #400 cheapie*. Then if u go a little bit bit more more further u'll get d same stuff #400/#500 cheapie cheapie*. Thats according to d stuff ur buying. Now you know! 57 Likes 11 Shares |

fgr63: If ur not buying ur provisions frm idumota then ur paying more for it and depriving u from making additional profit. Just enter bus frm surulere to eko idumota or tinubu cms *shine ur eyes o, no cross road, use foot bridge if ur at cms*then ask for direction to go d inner market. Ask sellers u see on ur way and maybe tell dem wat u wonna buy and for direction on wat part to get it cheap. Af i tried? 24 Likes |

Idumota is one part,you hav apongbon,balogun and the rest. Depending on what you're buying. Idumota is just like a general name for one part of it,there's dosunmu,idumagbo for those whoo wants to buy wristwatches in bulk,oluwole is der too leading to mandilas were u can buy wears also to broad street for suits and the rest,evn tinubu square.D dosunmu deals on baby items,jewelry(used to go there and buy chains,earrings pendants and other items I sold when I was in school),watches,electronics,female items like bra,pants,nighties etals(there's a corner called"whoro pedro)then boxer,singlets,hankies and a whole lot. Idumota is also hub for movie marketer(all the movies you need are sold mostly from there)likes of ebinpejo lane,nnamdi azikwe road etc.For those who wants to buy provisioons,head to oke arin,all d way down(u can assess it coming frm apongbon too)balogun deals wit ankara george lace(idumota sells too) wrapper ,female dresses shoes and one or two other item. The other side covers cosmetics and weavons and a few other tins. For those who wants to sell slippers,rubber and fancy ones plus a few others,jus before you descend to were is called "eyin eyo" by the foot bridge to the right,dats their depot. So lagos island as a whole,stocks all,so long you know were you're going,lol! Tradefair is there too,I don't really knw there much I only go to were I buy my beading items and cosmetics. Its very vast so one needs to knw were one is goin to get directions else u go lost,lol! And did I forget,there's ebute ero for all d tin tomatoes,spag,veg oil and the rest,then there's holloway and one other place if u need pots,plate,cups and household items. Phew that was an epistle! Did I miss out anytin?if I did its because I'm human and not God so I can't know everytin ,lol StoneColdBiceps:Thanks to everyone who has commented on this post, grateful �. OK quick one, I have posted all I know to the best of my knowledge, based on a few trips to the market or passing through to go somewhere. I don't have the monopoly of knowledge hence can't know everything and everywhere. I'd rather we post any enquiries we need here and others can help to give suggestions or quote me here I'll respond. I've had a few calls from people wch I don't have a problem with. But please don't call me at wrong hours or just call me up to demand information from me, it's not really proper. I actually have my number in my profile for business. You can send a whatsapp it's ok too but I still do not think there is need because I have made a comprehensive explanation of places to get stuff and others have chipped in one or two other tips. I can't physically Take you round THE market or start describing places I don't know in the market or have been to. 169 Likes 28 Shares |

speed99:Nooo my brother I only just expantiated what the op wrote, not that I'm into the business you asked me. I'm sure there are some persons here who deal on weavon wholesale. There are a lot of weavon and hair pieces sellers at apongbon but one has to apply wisdom as not to buy fake and also get cheaper. 10 Likes |
