One of the most expensive things that one can buy is mobile phones, especially when it is being bought from the top shops in town because we want genuine products only.
Due to this, most people in Ghana normally buy used phones since the prices go down and the phone is used for some time.
Some people who try to act smart also buy their phones from roadside sellers and many of these ‘end in tears as they later find out that they have been duped by the sellers.
One of the main reasons why we see such occurrences is due to the lack of proper credit systems whereby people can buy products and pay in installments over a monthly period.
When you go abroad, they have such systems in place that allows people to buy cars and pay in installments over a monthly period until the full amount has been paid.
However, in Ghana, we did not have anything like that here, until Vodafone Ghana decided to step in.
The telecom company has introduced a service through the Vodafone cash service that allows their subscribers to purchase top-quality mobile phones and pay for them in installments.
