How I Bought My Neighbour’s Generator from a Suspected Yahoo Boy for ₦200k

How I Bought My Neighbour’s Generator from a Suspected Yahoo Boy for ₦200k

I was browsing Facebook Marketplace when I spotted an ad from my neighbour who bought a generator last year for ₦450,000 and was now selling it for ₦250,000. Using a friend’s account, I negotiated the price down to ₦200,000. We met at a junction, my friend paid him, and I picked it up later that night. The next morning, he came to charge his phone in my flat. He saw a similar generator on my verandah, stared at it, left, returned and finally said, “This generator too resemble my own o, they just be like twins.”

How did you confirm his credibility before meeting at that junction, especially given the large price drop from ₦450k to ₦200k?

Did you check any verifiable proof or references before agreeing to meet there?

I noticed the seller bought it for ₦450k then listed it at ₦250k before you secured it for ₦200k; that's quite a turnaround.

That discount feels too good to be true—often such steep markdowns on used generators hide costly faults you only discover after purchase.

For future buys, always request a live demonstration, inspect engine parts, and verify legitimate papers before handing over cash.
