An associate told me about this website where she gets original refurbished stuff for cheap. Like her Galaxy S10…@ 32k. I was so dumbfounded that I visited the website to confirm. These are the prices of these old devices.
Wamejaa tiktok selling old flagships on lipa mdogo mdogo
Trying to copy the Mkopa model, Mkopa has made so much money na hii BNPL model hadi Watu credit wakaanza ya Watu Simu, kuna ile ingine pia MO Phones.
They buy container loads of those refurb phones from China and come sell them here for massive profit, even with defaults every day.
Trying to get my uncle in on that hustle, a small container will net 200% profit no problem.
A 20ft container packed with phones is no mean fit
Soon the Chinese are gonna take over.
You guys have no idea how many of these things are made and sold.
32k for a phone from 2019 is just too much. Considering the latest OS it supports is Android v12.
If security is your concern, a late midranger from Xiaomi, Oppo, and Samsung is good. If you dig performance, then go for an older flagship but at least an S20 from a vendor charging reasonably.
Very true. 32k utapata a very decent mid ranger at that price.
The price of a product does not matter in a capitalist economy, the flow of capital is the main focus. A huge problem with kenya is that most of these financial products are launched by foregin companies, thus extracting value from the ecoomy.
The government should ban foregin companies form participating in micrfinance as it is essentially stealing money from the low end of the economy and transfering it abroad. if those products are launched by locals, it is better as capital will flow inside the economy.
That is the theory trump is working on. it does not matter how expensive products in the US are, as long as it is a closed system. That capital will eventually flow to people within the low end of the economy. But if it is flowing to China, that is a problem.
China understood this concept a long time ago. That is why you trillionaires in Chin, but because their capital will never leave China due to strict money export controls, china will always be rich and growing no matter the financial crisis.
On the other hand, globalists do not see it that way. For them, the world is a game of checkers where capital should flow to any country to help them maximize their earnings that they can spend anywhere in the world at the cost of everyone else in the world
Samsung ukishatumia flagship, there is just no going back.
Call me oldfashioned but sijawahi elewa why someone would buy an iphone 10 at those exhorbitant prices naonanga tiktok.
Naonanga ikiwa ujinga ya hali ya juu ati uko na iphone ama samsung refurbished. Akina calus na sowhat wamefanya ata huwezi jua who is holding a genuine phone nowadays. Ata afadhali tu ununue infinix ama techno mpya than hizo takataka refurbished kama huwezi fika bei ya a new product.
