Lockdown doesn't affect shipment of goods totally however phone vendors would find excuse to increase their price
well said.... Samsung is discounting their phones prices worldwide


what most naija vendors don't know is that most Nigerians won't buy phones this year cos of finances... increasing prices of phones will deter people from buying

Yes o. Almost the price of many things increased. Samsung Galaxy A20s was sold at 53,500 before the lockdown at slot but it is now sold for 62,500. Sumec firman 3800 was sold at 85,000 before lockdown but not sold at 105,000.

Na person wey beleful dey buy phone.

People will be complaining there's no money but see the kind of big bags they use to deposit money in banks, you will shout!

Not that it will, it has already affected it, even household appliances and other commodities.

Dollar exchange rate went up just before lockdown, for sure price of all those types of imported things will go up.

It would. It's expected that the price of many items will double. People would want to make up for the money they spent on lockdown.

OP... I will advise you hold on a bit cos prices of phone have gone rooftop...

I dont understand why cos since lockdown was in effect I want to believe no phone was imported during that period... unless they are saying underground importation was going on...

Then again... this phones i want to believe are old stock which they must have had before the lockdown... but since no sales they increased prices to try and regain as much profit as possible to the detriment of the buyer...

Na them sabi sha...
Normal, trust Nigerians to take advantage of every unfortunate situation to enrich themselves. I just dey look them, the law of demand and supply will soon start to take effect. All this initial gra gra, na person wey don chop go think of phone

It's more likely to record increase in the price electronics and smart phones. Since demand is currently more than supply and the pandemic has affected the monetary value of Naira.

The increase in dollar will course an increase in phone price . That is expected.

Try to survive the pandemic first before deciding whether you will need a phone afterwards.
Naija people for you, even when death is staring them in the face they think of trivial things like owambe parties and phones!
