Wow

u serious bo

they really so jialat meh ?

Resealing used or 2nd hand fones think shud be common in their trade ba, so that the fone look "nice and new" for sale

but,

resell as brand new price ? Then thats really not honest of them to do that

And here I tot they are one of the reputable shops due to their coy business "declaration"

:oops:
Yes. That is how they operate. My friend experience it himself as they resell my 3 day old s10+ as brand new. My friend still ask them for the used set they take in 2 hours ago, but they say no more, left a brand new set. So upon tallying the imei, it is the set i traded in. that is why i dont patronize them anymore.

Friend confronted them and they just say take it or leave it:s13:

That's why I don't buy from 3rd party shops. Too shady and in SLS last time, almost all do that.

actually, even if buy from original store, some will also reseal even apple. but at least for apple i still ok with it ba, at least i know i am covered. their warranty service is one of the best in market liao...

for others...... i will siam far far....

honestly speaking, i am sure all ah beng shops will reseal, just how good their skill of resealing is, and whether got customer realise it or not. gadgetaffair is suay suay kena spotted by me and my friend only. so i just avoid there personally

This one easy to spot. If you notice it's resealed with another sticker just reject.

Apple reseal set they will inform you right. They won't risk their reputation to be cheapo?

Nope. I am very sure apple do reseal except if the phone got some issue and requires hardware replacement, then that will be their refurbished ones to sell as apple certified refurbish or even a 1 to 1 replacement if people send in their phone for repair

I encounter a seal set with scratches at lightning port and even fingerprints all over. Apple wont be possibly be keep manufacturing new phones just because people return their phone within the 14 day period

Yes. Beside official Reseal on box. What I do, is also to login to the manufacture with my Imei to valid if this is a authentic product and if I was the 1st buyer.

Think its the standard norm in their trade ba

If u one day open such shops, most likely u will do the same too

As many hv said,

in sinkpor here consumers protection practically zero

So we hv only ourselves to be extra careful and vigilant

Neither... During mid month or something...

Depends de, sometimes Lazada is cheaper than Shopee vice versa...

Noticed this new trend also

It seems nowadays they can just suka suka chut "cheapest" promo outsai the usual double date

ie. F4 last few units of 8/256 at first they promo at 449 during adverts leading to 4.4

Then skarly few days later they slashed further down to 409 as their last promo price before finally oos

I once asked a shopee phone seller "mxxxn phxxx" about their Realme 10 pro+ global rom set and the CS replied saying that it is a CN set that before they deliver to the customer, they will send to a professional flashing company to flash to global rom then it will be factory sealed and delivered to the customer. I find it funny cos why need to factory seal the phone after it is flashed leh? I mean the customer already know that the original phone box had been opened for the phone to be flashed mah... what do u guys think? :unsure:
