    This has already been featured on TV before, I wonder why the local government is not doing anything about this.. just passed there yesterday afternoon, and there they were, lots of them, each one carrying lots of cellphones with them.. not just ordinary cellphones but expensive looking smartphones... I presume they are original IPhones and Samsungs.. less the box and chargers.. in which I can conclude are stolen phones?

    baka imitation/china phones?

    hulihin dahil hindi allowed magbenta dun oo.

    pero hulihin dahil nakaw ang binebenta? you need to prove that pa.

    unless nawalan ka ng phone, nakita mo binebenta dun.

    Pag orig + bagsak presyo alam na!

    Pero yung walang charger? 50-50 yan hehe

    Naranasan ko na kasi magbenta ng lumang phone sa greenhills.

    Unit lang talaga. No box, no charger.

    Pinagkakakitaan yan ng mga pulis nagulat ka pa. Mga alaga o may lagay. Kahit yan mga jeep na pasaway may lagay sa pulis/enforcer mga yan kaya malakas loob

    Before pag nagllakad ako dyan from trinoma ang bilis ko maglakad kasi parang nanakawan ka rin nila. Lalo na pag parang sumulyap ka tapos me mga nakatingin sayo, hindi ba nananakawan yung mga bumibili dyan? Yung tipong pagkabili nila eh susundan tapos kukunin ulit ung phone hehe

    That's also what i'm thinking.. para bang yung ibang side mirror na binebenta sa banawe, pagkapitik sa ibang sasakyan, benta sa iba, then the cycle goes on...

    sadly there are people who buy from these fences. kung wala sanang bibili e di wala din magbebenta at wala din magnanakaw. but the reality is the people who buy those stolen phones are quite happy (and even proud) they got a high end phone for cheap. it's got its own ecosystem with everything in it ugly.

    meron ding strip-down cellphones and/or bad clones..
    name brands with famous-look cases, being sold for unbelievably cheap prices..
    but when you buy one and use it.. somehow, it "doesn't quite work right".. napakabagal... para bang mustang na pinalitan ng makinang pang-vios..

    same scheme sa pedro gil near robinson's ermita. yung mga nakalatag na brand new looking phones yun ang mga imitation. then yung mga pabulong na mag aalok ng iphone or s6 habang hawak nila yung phone ay yung mga stolen units.

    its either you outsmart them by buying the nakaw phone at bargain price, or they outsmart you by doing a last minute swapping of the orig to a clone phone.

    yang sa overpass orig yang mga yan. puwede mo naman kilatisin. diyan pumupunta mga bulakbol na susyalclaymbers nating mga kabataan. pinakamababang 5s nasa 4-5k daw. no charger diyan unit only.

    di mo naman puwede sumbong mga ganyan dahil wala kayong proof...... bullet proof o saksak proof.
