Lmao. I bought 3 lime looking oranges for N100 few days ago. 20 years ago, it's sold for N3

Ishilove:

Plantain is expensive now because it is going out of season. Most places will sell this quantity for 1k or slightly lesser.

You are right about the cheating part. If you want to dash, go ahead but don't encourage dishonesty.

its not dishonesty, it is capitalism. A seller can mark up the price of his/her prodcut by however much they desire. It is for the buyer to decide if it is a fair price.

now guys understand that i somehow have the feeling that i got cheated. in fact i know i got cheated but i would need you guys to tell me if i got cheated or i did well. but that is not the story. the story is this so she brought the plantain. six in total and said 2000 and i knew right away i was being cheated but see sometimes as humans we have to look past this being possessive with our money stuff. you have to once in a while ( or frequently ) reward people who are trying and making an effort to succeed. dont always feel the need to squeeze every last drop of your change out of people or to beat peoples prices down to the point where they cant make a living themselves. ALWAYS have some bit of compassion for people and think about their survival too. stop pricing down people to where they can hardly make a living after working so hard

and so back to my story i looked at this woman, she is sitting under the sun all day i looked at her tray, there is maybe like 7 bunches of plantain in there. am thinking if she sells all today she gets 14000 but of course she bought the plantain somewhere else so she has to pay for the plantain too so at the end of the day what is her profit margin ? maybe for herself for the whole day maybe 3000 ? and she will buy food while sitting there for 10 hours so maybe she takes home 2000 ? she looked like she has children she will have bills and expenses etc etc etc. MY POINT IS THAT I KNEW I WAS GETTING CHEATED BY BUYING THAT PLANTAIN FOR 2000 BUT I DIDNT MIND GETTING CHEATED BECAUSE SOMETMES YOU JUST HAVE TO REWARD PEOPLE WHO ARE TRYING SO HARD. AND SO I GAVE HER THE 2000 AND HOPE HER LIFE IS FINE.

Oga ur writing too much gramer for a good did u just do, tell us how u helped her and what we should emulate from u, that is all, all this buying of 2000 and what ever is not why we are here, simple, we should once in a while give or pay more than the price , just to encourage them

sukkot:
its my way of paying tithes. i dont give tithes to rich pastors but yet i see the need to help those who are struggling sometimes. this is how i help people who are struggling. i pay them what they want without asking for discount but first i would access the situation
1- you are hardworking and trying your best
2-of course you will be offering me something in return which i would then overpay for..

So after paying tithe you came online to cry. Mad ppl everywhere

We understand that things are costly generally since the COVID-19 started, but people's greed are mostly responsible for inflation in the country presently. Nigerian buyers should start cultivating the habit of resisting these overpriced commodities from the sellers to fight hardship in the country. Some people will buy something N500 but they want to sell it N2000. Is that not greed How can an item be worth more than 200% of its costly price?

So much anger and hatred just because of 2000 naira plantain in Chevron.


Too much frustration in this country

This guy why you ask question? When u are so keen on defending against any opinion...

You did well o Jaree... Infact na u cheat the woman...

Oya reply...

Given and making it public isnt acceptable.do it in secret and thy lord wil reward u in public

each one cost N333.33. oh...my country

Magnoliaa:
Ehn, so if it's your way of appreciating value and you don't care, what's the point of this topic?

Like, I can not reconcile the fact that you're feeling 'cheated' to the fact you say this is a normal thing you do all the time.

So, which one? You be kind person abi you no be kind person?

Every single person who disagrees with you,
to tell you why that feels like cheating to them, fiam, you quote them to tell them it's not really XYZ, or trying to make them see what is not.

Asin, IF you are just going to disagree on what overpaying and cheating means, WHY did you create this thread? I don't used to understand some of these things sometimes sha where people will come and create threads about something they bought in the market, and they will start disagreeing with everybody in the thread.

It is madness...lol someone that can show 4 million took time to create thread because of 2k plantain...lol.
Cannabis.

Aroyjunior:
What exactly is your point,do you want us to praise you or what.

I wonder too oooo, is that not stupidity at the highest order . The most annoying part of his last words "Do I change her life with 2k?
How can you change the seller life with 2k? The guy is insane, I swear !

sukkot:
keep in mind 2000 is chicken change to me ( GOD is good ). its like dababy who bought popcorn and gave the popcorn guy 100 dollars for a bag of popcorn. that means he paid 60000 naira for a bag of popcorn. should he be flogged ? or is he just looking at the degradation of the human condition and in his own little way is offering relief ?

The pop corn seller didn't request for 100 dollar. Dababy was the one that willingly gave him the money.

But in you case you were reaped off cos the seller feels you are stupid.

What is the problem when you're desperate for plaintain? Please park well

sukkot:
lets stick to the topic. i dont like to boast about myself. but i can show you somethings now that would make you cry about your life
