Spare parts dealers are the silent billionaires of the car industry. They don’t talk too much. They just load up a 40ft container with 3 sedans, and 16 dismantled cars, and rake in MAD profit. They repeat 20+ containers a year. Quietly eating. 🤫

Are Nigerian dealers intentionally buying dead cars out of greed, or are they also getting played and losing millions in the process? I can't speak on intentions. But I have a story and 2 tricks that every buyer needs to know. 🧵

This guy tested 140 years of car. The progress is insane! It’s a long video but if you’re a car owner, you’ll love this.

This is how easy it is to make a ₦56M mistake!! A dealer just accidentally bid $40,000 on a totalled 2015 Highlander. He meant to type $4,000 and didn't check well. One extra zero and his entire business is at risk. 🧵

This time last year, I wired $130,000 / ₦182M, to a small independent dealer in Pennsylvania that I didn’t know. Then he stopped picking my calls. There are lessons in this story I need you to hear. Incoming🧵

4 Important things you must learn from the guy who mistakenly bid $40k instead of $4k at Copart! The moment I saw the listing, three things hit me immediately Before I even saw the mistake, I knew this was a rookie And it made complete sense why he bid $40k instead of $4k. 🧵

You’ve saved up ₦100M and rushed to Copart to buy a car to import and sell. You go soon lose your money and your body go soon rest. I wish someone had told me this in November 2017 when I was seeing cars and saying “ahh, it’s cheap o” 🧵
