Want to buy a smart phone in Nigeria? I have to say that at times, they tend to cost too much if you're buying a new one and one smart way to save money is to simply buy them after they've been used.

If you are looking for a particular phone and want to get a good deal buying it, then you should know that there is a huge online market for buyers and sellers of used mobile phones at jiji for Nigerians. Lots of used mobile phones have been listed and you can conveniently choose which one to buy.

Let's assume you wanted to buy a phone that was originally sold at N50,000 while new, you could get it for as low as N15,000 from the used mobile phone store locally and that has automatically saved you up to 70% from the original price. You don't always have to spend a lot just to buy a mobile phone and it you could always check if it's in good working condition before finally accepting the offer.

There are lots of used mobile phone stores in Nigeria and one thing they all have in common is that they sell phones at discounted prices and this saves money for buyers ultimately.

Ordinarily, mobile phones are not made in Nigeria, at least as at 2015 and that's one of the reasons why new phones tend to cost a bit higher than what they cost abroad. It no longer makes much economic sense to keep buying new ones at ridiculously high prices when you can save up to 50% when buying used ones. Smart Nigerians can now save more money by buying used mobile phones and there is already a huge number of sellers willing to sell.
