You are a wicked person.

You knew all this since and kept it to your self. If Codyella had not complained no one would have known what was obtainable.

I wonder how many others are afraid to speak out.
E-idiot! Codyella came out and you all came out on her with all your arsenals. Do you know how many more peeps can't take these e-bullying and decide to keep to themselves

Oga calm down. If it was so bad, he won't have still went ahead and recommend people to him and also wanted to buy from him again. It could just be a deal gone bad. I'm in no support of AMDman but I do hope he can come up with a good explanation especially the no rust at all part.
I guess the rust should be under d car cos with the video no obvious rust on d visible part, I guess it's time amdman should start paying more attention to details.

Vehicle are not located in nigeria. Vehicles cannot be inspected and rejected, by the time vehicle lands nigeria, monies would have exchanged hands.

It becomes very imperative that the seller discloses every bit of information including pics of the underbody and suspension parts of the car so potential buyers are in a better bargaining/informed position.

Well Oga Amdman maybe you should take your time in doing your inspections even if you will add it to the customers charge. Maybe get professional hands or something. Don't let this discourage you sha, but learn from things like this. Businesses have challenges and your own be this.


Have been following this thread since it was on page 22. I know many peeps here started earlier, don't blame them if you think they are doing assistant Amdman. We all be like family here and I have also personally lashed out at him once.

If out of the tens if not hundreds of cars he's bought for ppl,and there are only 2 bad reviews or even 10,then he's doing well considering we're talking about used cars here.
Same way ppl here sell off their cars most times when it becomes troublesome is d same thing the white man does.A dealer might not have d experience and all d time for a thorough inspection.
The only way you can fully know d condition of a used car is when the car is brought to ppl like g.azzuzz that have their own workshop,the experience and tools for thorough inspection including scanning.

You are right bro...
Amdman need to employ someone over there in Canada to help with inspection of vehicles, now that his business is about to boom or already booming...

Amdman may not see every fault in a car because he is not a mechanic bit all faults will still be addressed to him as a seller...
Amdman,
you have a lot to do when it comes to car sells because proper inspection will be needed and you alone may not see it all but any mistake or fault in a client's car, you alone will bear the blame so bro, do the needful...

They are right by complaining but why I will not condemn you much is that you have done 80% excellent jobs and the rest 20%, you should look into that.

Anybody with good review should also come up please...

Na the matter we dey settle since yesterday...

I rest my case

The first thing he should start with is smooth communication. Alot of people have complained about that, it is not easy to trust someone with ur money even if it is 200k and not get better response.

dont be surprised, this is a typical nairaland thread

Everyone posting on this thread has their own motivations

radautoworks is conflicted between defending the obvious and disgusting misogyny and doing her usual all mechanics are dishonest except us, song and dance

codyella had a bad experience, she has shared it and is being attacked because of it?

what nonsense

why were none of the seemingly positive reviews queried or questioned?

the bandwagon effect has taken over most of the people here who see the OP as their messiah and savior and are determined to die on the hill of defending him in the face of substantial complaints

I just saw a similarly negative review, perhaps he would also be attacked and verbally assaulted by the mob

I'll also wait for the only honest mechanic in Nigeria to weigh in from her high horse

we move
your blessings will run over and overwhelm you bro.this your response to the post you quoted and that particular post is very sensible and obvious.but,many are now turning blind eye.shame

UPDATE - May 11, 2020

Am thinking low-priced cars can be a good deal for the Nigerian market. These cars will usually have any of the following characteristics:

Clean titles
High Mileage
Minor faults, etc.

For example, the 2007 Honda Accord below can land in Nigeria for 700k (purchase price and shipping. You arrange and pay for cost of clearing). Has a mileage of 383,000.

Generally, the clearing cost for shipping will depend on the age, model, type, etc of the vehicle and will range from N300k to about N600k.

If you are interested in any of the vehicles, Call/Whatsapp - +1437 221 5476

So sad, such a promising business venture that could help People get tokunbo cars at compettive price, no one is perfect, I see this guy as someone who try as much as possibe to be honest and straight forward with his dealings and would rather make lose than tarnish his image.

I bought an accord from him last year the video he showed me was very clean, I was very excited, but when car land the car looked like normal naija used accord, dirty inside and some rust outside, I first weak, the thing even get some rust under am, the body wasn't perfect, some parts were broken in the interior , fuel cap door doesnt close, some dent on the body from port, the car was overheating when I was driving it home, Ac wasn't working

But when I reached out to him and explain things, he promised to assign a mechanic to help fix them at no cost to me.

But since I saw these as minor fixes, I just did them myself, I didn't wanted any mechanic touching the car, however to assist me, Amdman wrote off a 50k I was owing him as settlement for whatever I had spent.

One thing I am sure of is Amdman would not deliberately sell you a lemon and if there are fault that were not disclose he will work with you to get them resolved.

Madam and Jesterfly, I believe if you permit amdman to post the chat screenshot with him, we will all be able to deduce who is at fault clearly, and help you resolve this matter.

In my opinion, these are just honest reviews from the buyers, unfortunately, unlike the ones we have been seeing, they are negative, so let us treat them as the reviews that they are, not a campaign to bring the OP down. Not every bad review is an attempt to bring down the OP, they can be seen as an opportunity for the OP to become better.

Negative reviews play a pivotal role in the growth of any business.

Baba I'll try to respond to your bulleted reply as much as I can. Mind you, I didn't call you out for a deal I'd since moved on of, but cos Codyella was taken by most peeps here as a killjoy and someone hired or bought over to come spoil your business, I don't know her from Adam, just not happy with 90% of peeps here who are ready not to listen to both parties.

1.In the video review of the car you sent to me, you clearly said there was no rust, and I took your word for it, even when I showed a friend and he pointed out a rust to me, you waved it off as nothing serious. Here's a link to the video on your YouTube page
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jonz5CkObWY (I might get banned by the spam bot for this), listen to your words at the 38 - 40s timeline.
As per the mechanic and panel beater you recommended which I later used, do you know it took almost 5 days for the panel beater to weld the rusted underneath, he didn't even finish all the rust work, i had to use another welder who use electric welding to do more of the rust work. I visit the mechanic every week for one issue or the other, one noise or the other. Some of the noises were linked to one broken part underneath the vehicle, and that would have to be welded. At a point, the mechanic advised me to sell the vehicle and ease my self of its numerous problems. I don't need to come back to you to say I've discovered another rust or another problem, when it is my cross to bear already, afterall you were not assisting in the bills.

2.I remember making and sending a video of the wet interior to you, until a panel beater discovered it to be from the moon roof months down the line, I don't need to bug you months after.

3. You clearly said the kickstarter was why it was not starting, and you also asked me not to get one till the vehicle arrives. I trusted in your words and went to the port with the kickstarter, just so I could drive the car home after fixing it, why would I not be prepared when you already told me confidently what the issue with the car was? Don't blame me for buying a kickstarter baba.

4. Being scammed on the highway was my fault, little wonder I didn't mention it in my first post. I also didn't mentioned where I changed all the 4 tyres cos they were worn and also didn't say I had to change the car battery. I also didn't mention where customs stopped me cos of underpayed duty, and I had to give them a good sum of money to free me. The overheating and changing of top Gasket could also be my fault.
I never used only water in the radiator, right even until I sold the car. I also never used any other oil in the engine besides Castrol 5w-30 synthetic oil. So you can never say I didn't maintain the vehicle properly.

5. I recommended alot of peeps to you, but they all got disappointed with your response to them, it's either you snub them or you ignore them when they request a particular type of car. I contacted you last in March when I sold off the pontiac and requested another from you, but you laughed (don't know what that meant) first before you asked I send you a chat so it comes on top of everyother chat. I didn't continue the deal cos you didn't respond further after you said the one you first showed me has been sold.

The way you claimed a car has no issue is just misleading, we all buy in trust from you, but when we see something that is off what we were expecting, we get unhappy. You can't say "No known Issue" and the car comes with barrage of issues.

If you confirmed to us that an issue has been satisfactorily fixed, it is unfair to us to come out 8months later to say it was not fully fixed. Did you then collide with a mechanic to cheat yourself?

You are one of the first people to trust us when we started, so I really hate to join issues with you. I only ask that your comments be fair and be a true picture of what transpired between us.

As I prefer to check each car personally, there is only a finite number of people I can realistically respond to. The system we have in place to filter the requests we get is not foolproof, we have been doing what we can to tweak it to accommodate more people, and will make some further changes next week.

Your referral is important to us and we apologize for how it must appear to you as not valued.
