How to Buy an Expensive Phone When On a Tight Budget
Are you on a tight budget but still determined to have a good smartphone? Yes, you can have it, if only to think outside the box. Not everyone can afford to pay Kes 10,000 -15,000 for a smartphone, especially now that the economy is dwindling. But you can visit an online marketplace where you can angukia an expensive smartphone at a considerably lower price.
That is the trick many Kenyans use. Many people are selling their phones at lower prices. These are used phones but which are still in good condition. It is possible to find a phone currently retailing at Ksh 15 000 being sold at as low as Ksh 9,000 on an online marketplace.
Have you considered joining a marketplace? CityPlus is one online marketplace where you can find used phones at affordable prices. You just have to take your time sifting through the ads. The phone may be slightly damaged, but still can be used without serious hitches.
Caution
A CityPlus marketplace seller with a used phone will always explain the condition of the phone to justify why he is selling it at a lower price. You need to meet the seller and check the phone to verify that it is indeed in the condition described by the seller. Do not buy a used phone until you ascertain it is worth the reduced price in its current state.
