I have been eyeing on the recent Apple gadget, Ipad and had been seeking assistant favor from co-workers at State to acquire one for me. I was hesitate to wait for the 3G model but would settle for Ipad-Wifi.
It was then two days ago, I spotted two Ipad-wifi for sale at online deal. And the price is fairly attractive at RM2050 for the 32GB model. I called the person for a COD and he replied that he was at Pengkalan Hulu. In my memory, I remembered hearing this location and that time it was an Iphone deal. I was mistaken for Pengkalan at Ipoh.
I voiced my interests to complete the deal COD at Ipoh but the person claimed could not as someone else is driving to his location at night (some three hours by then) for the item. I said then sell me the other one since he had two on hand then. He said he had already shipped out the item. It really meant he had sold out the two ipads on his hand and so I hang the phone. I called a friend of mine who is also another gadget-kaki about this. He rang me 15 minutes later that he also called the person but was informed too that the ipad had been sold out.
When I arrived at home some 2 hours later, the friend called and informed that there is another progressing story...
The seller now claimed the buyer (who was an indian) who drove to meet him only offer him RM1k for the ipad and so the seller rejected. The seller called my friend if he would like to complete the deal. My friend asked if these are cloned ipad. The seller denied by alleging that these were ipads bought in Singapore by his boss. Although I could be wrong but I do not think Ipad had been launched elsewhere except US?? The seller further wanted to trick my friend that claiming he could deposit half to his account and he would ship the ipad. Only upon the receive of the ipad, then the full sum would need to be paid. My friend rejected. The seller continued to push that he could ship the ipad to my friend then only complete the payment.
I could not believe what is the "seller" trying to do here. With an Ipad, one does not need to push for sale, especially for a price of RM2050. It would be immediately grabbed should the seller really have the items.
It was clearly a plot to trick buyer. It was already three days and there is no arrival of Ipad but of course I repeatedly insisted my friend do not deal in such a manner. The ads still available at here http://www.mudah.my/Apple+ipad+32gb+wifi-5809353.htm?last=1. No matter what please do not fall in the plot. If you are the seller who are genuine, call me right away and I buy all of your available ipad.
LOL
