I need to change my phone because its freezing up ! Quite old like me !

Do any of yiu have experience buying used phone from Carousel Direct ?

I mean from Carousel itself, not the sellers who advertise in Carousel. I want to know how reliable is their 7 days return policy.

Do they take back with no questions asked or much longer story !

Thanks

You have valid question, unlike some kids who were born yesterday.

Carousel is also on line platform, so why not from carousel ?
Many trusted hp seller, you may know them, but i dont. Its too generic.

I my self have been in carousel for 10 years and have bought and sold many items and bought phones from direct sellers. The current phone also from there.

But i have never bought directly from carousel, hence the question.

Bangla richer than your father. Just be careful. You never know.

They dont know about carousel, so yeah, you know !

Ok, two ppl suggested, i will check.

No, not skimping. Budget is rm2500. I already use this for 5 years, and i bought it 2nd hand. I thought can use until year end, but it froze pretty bad yest !!

The earlier phone i used for 6 years. So i know !
I am not the kind who simply change stuff or buy new. But when its time, i have to.

3k not for me lah.
I am just looking for 14 256gb. That comes to 2k. 15 can get new ? 2500 ? Ohhh maybe 128 i guess. Stiil cheap i say !

Ok thanks for suggestion. I will look at it. Both is online purchase is it ? No walk in ?

Tjanks for suggestion. But this old man using ipong since 3gs, so my work flow all depends on it. Thanks

Yeah no gaming. But i depend on i cloud s lot, so s bit sruck with over rated ipong.

Oh phone price gone down ? Thsts good mang !

Oh not bad. Thanks for info.
I checked online, all 256 gb sold out, 512 also. 😅

True, thats how it should be done. Base model, old model. Easy on the pocket

still can get new 14 ? where ah ? Machines still have 14 ?

Tjank you boss, appreciate your input and ideas. Though i may not wait until 7.7 and risk failure of my phone, you have helped. Thank you.

You are right. ! Now i can never buy a 2nd phone anymore, i am already a person who washes my hand every time i touch something which is not mine, with your post above, you just killed me 😅

It like i cannot unsee what i have seen.

Ok will check. Thanks.

Yes i am old. Thats why i dnt trust online purchases with a high price. Thats is the reason for my post, asking about it.

Physical shop does not mean its safe, the shop is just selling someone’s phone with unknown status ! Their warranty is bullshit, they will never replace even there are obvious reasons for it.

Thats why i bought from direct owners where you can ask them all kinds of questions, they are not pro and will by mistake spill the beans.

Shop ? They know what to say ! Nevet bought used phone from shop !

Thsts the reason to find out about carousell’s 7 day warranty.

Anway, i dnt think i am going to go with it, when 700rm extra can get brand new ipong !!

Thanks for your reply.

You so helpful dude. Thanks.

Yeah, the delivery process $@“&$.
If they shop has option, i will go.
