More pay, less content
I'm going to beat my chest to say this:
I don't know about other continents, but I'm sure this negative feature is applicable to most of the countries in the world (if not all) because humans are bound to cheat.
I've had of multiple occasions where I paid for a commodity and later found out that what I paid for was less supplied. The most common item on my list is the purchase of gasoline and cooking gas. I remember almost fighting with a gas-filling roadside vendor because of such.
Let me share my recent experience...
The photo above is the kind of engine oil I've been using on my generator and I change it very often, say once every two weeks, because my generator overworks.
The day I went to buy that, my regular customer that I usually buy it from told me that, his own (that particular engine oil) had been exhausted. I wanted to buy another brand from him because he sells original qualities, but I remembered how I was advised not to use different brands to run my Generator. So I left and went to another shop.
I got there, pointed at the engine oil, and the lady told me the price, which was a little lower than what I used to buy it.
What a nice purchase! I quickly paid and didn't bother with anything else because we don't always get cheap things.
When I got home, I drilled out the condemned oil from the generator, and when I was about to pour in the new one, I noticed that its seal had been unsealed (unsealed and gummed back).
This is unbelievable!
I flipped off the spot of the seal that was temporarily gummed back, and I noticed that the oil had been drained out. A good amount of oil had been drained out.
"What's this??? I can't take this at all!"
I locked my door, picked it up, and went back to where I bought it.
"Look at what you sold me, a half-engine oil."
"What do you mean? Let me see," she pretentiously collected the engine oil from my hand. She viewed it and was like, "Oooooh God! These people again!"
"What do you mean?" I asked.
"It's the wholesalers that sell these oils to us, they like to open the oil and extract some quantities to sell as their own," she narrated, with the mindset that she's talking to a 'mumu' (dullard)😂.
"Anyways, give me another one because I can't buy this."
This time, she went inside the deep to bring another oil. Did you understand that? She left the spot where she brought the previous one and went inside the deep chamber to bring another can of engine oil.
I collected it and opened it in her presence to check if it was faulty too, but it wasn't; the seal was intact. I smiled.
These people think we don't know what's happening. We know what they do!
Thank you for reading.
Hahaha 🤣
It's everywhere bro we just have to be careful and know where to buy this things
Of course tye know where the original and fake one is, trust them
Thanks for sharing
Hahah😂
Exactly, they know what they're doing and when caught, they begin to give pretentious excuses 😂.
Thank you for stopping by boss
You were lucky that she agreed to change it, most people will not even listen to you talk more of changing it.
The way they give half of thus container for the price of a full one is disheartening.
Yes ooo Nigeria my country, you gat to be wise
Hehehe, humans would always want to chest at every slightest opportunity. You are very lucky it got changed
Yes, we know what they do 😂
Even some that will rebag foreign rice and sell u local rice with foreign rice price..all join..lol
Hahahah 🤣 o fe gbeyin ni gogo
You see this my country people eh
It's only God that can help them if you sent a child she would have denied it
Seriously, I am kind of speechless ,because you had already said it all 😂😂😂 it has happened to me more than 1 million times,lolzzz
Hmmmm humans they like toying with customers brain. At least you were bold enough to returned it and without argument the girl took it
If you are in Nigerian and have not being cheated, you are in the other part of Nigerian because they will always look for a way to cheat you especially in the market when you want to but food stuffs🥲. They will be giving you ridiculous prices for items.
Imagine how will you sell half of engine oil to a person, abeg I don't want to laugh😂😂.
Trust us(Nigerians)😄. This cheating is in our DNA and it just appear so normal. God help us. Amen🤲
Is that the Mercy that is not sugaring anything?? Lol😄
It's good to have you back (on a visit though)
Lol, I won't mention the kind of people that used to do this.
But it's very abysmal to do this kind of thing, I'm sure you won't go back there to buy things from them anymore.
Reputation matters a lot
This is just it.
The little star I used to rate them has reduced to 0 level.
Funny thing is that, this thing is very common. Even the ones that appear genuine are codedly doing it😄.
Thank you boss
Everywhere has been cast in my country. You need some corny things to do for you to make a good sales
They think we don't know all their tricks, the earlier they realize that they are the highest mumu the better for them.
#dreemerforlife.
That's it.
They think we don't know. Funny people! 😄
Thank you stopping by
You are welcome
It's the way people cheat others and expects them to fall for it. Like are you really trying to call me a fool ? Like I won't know you are playing a fast one on me ? What they fail to know is that in doing so they are loosing customers.
Glad you were able to get a better one. Thank you for sharing.
Came in from @dreemport #dreemerforlife
Exactly 👌
They do these things thinking that everyone is dull.
As for me, once you cheats me, I'm off from you. Connection terminated.
Thank you for stopping by Rukkie.
Is this your Rukkie for Rukevwe?
LoL! This is Nigeria.. shey you were excited when you heard a cheap price🤣. This is part of the reasons why going for cheap things is risky. Thank God you were smart enough.
Lol😂😂.
When I heard that decrease in price, I didn't think twce at all😂
Awoof that purges the stomach 😂.
Thank you bro
LoL.. you are welcome 😁🤗
Hahaha, you weren't informed, lol.
Awoof dey run belle, lol but come to think of it, it's very disheartening that one would pay for something and get less value.
For you to be in Naija, you must shine ya eyes wella wella else, "ha e kụrụ gi" (you will be cheated).

All in all - it is happy end after all. Good that you didn't let your self be push over and confronted the seller:)
Came through #dreemport:)
There are a lot of people that are fond of doing this and it's quite sad. I honestly hope their wicked ways catch up with them because I wonder what you gain cheating another person who's buying genuinely from you.
