Item Wanted: Cellphone for cleaning lady, around R500~R600
Packaging Essential: Would be nice
Desired Age: Matters little
Location: PTA/Fourways
Willing to accept a shipped item: Yeah if it's not too expensive, I'm on a budget here
Ballpark/Budget Amount: R500~R600

Hey dudes and dudettes! Our cleaning lady wrote a letter to wife and I last week asking for a phone. Apparently hers broke, and she needs a new one. Now since we already made provisions for her for a little bonus and some extras over December and so on we don't have the most money left to spend. In fact, we didn't really have budget left but I feel we need to help her somehow. I'm looking for a smaller phone, and cheap. Would be nice if it's still got a decent battery and it's not too battered and bruised. I would prefer not going iOS phones since they tend to get locked and so on and she's not the most technologically advanced, and it wouldn't even matter if it's not a touch-screen phone, but it would be nice. I was thinking something like an old S2/S3 or something like that, if someone has one lying around somewhere and they're willing to let it go for a song. Packaging would be nice (so we can gift wrap it), but accessories like earphones isn't an issue. If it's got a weird charger, that would be lekker.

Let me know!

FYI

Might have a Samsung J1 just need to check with mother if she already gave it away. If not you can have it.

Edit : So sorry man. She gave it away on Saturday already. :(

Hey yeah that would be amazing, thanks man! Let me know, free is best since we can then increase her bonus a little!
 
Ekt 'n Huawei Y6, steeds geseel (Saam P20 Pro gekry), R500 maar die catch is ek vlieg vandag kaap to tot die 16de Dec.

If @Toxxyc needs this and the deal can be done via seller/buyer the phone can be dropped at my home in centurion/Highveld

Hey meneer! As dit die Y6 2018 is - definitely. Klink soos 'n fantastiese plan, veral omdat hy nuut/geseel is! Ek sal jou PM!

For cleaning and security staff, i normally get the Vodafone kicka for R400 or so.

MOBIWIRE Smart Kicka 4 - Lowest Prices & Specials Online | Makro

Brand new, supports WhatsApp. Has a camera.
Then they repay R20-50 per month.

But if you can score an S2/3 at this price, then why not.

So you impose a phone on them ... on 'credit' they did not apply for and dock their salary monthly... R50 might be nothing to you, to them it's an entire week's sustenance cash. Class Baas

No.

They want a phone, and i arrange it for them, interest free.

They don't have to catch a taxi and go to Makro.
No delivery fee on the device.
A brand new device, instead of one from a foreign national shop that'll break in a week.

They make the payment after receiving their salary in full.

You really jumped the gun there. I didn't read anything in his post that warranted your incredibly insulting post. Making unwarranted presumptions with nearly every word you type.
 
Got a black Berry z10 and LG g2 that needs some fixing
Z10 needs a screen the g2 needs a motherboard and screen....Can have it for free
You can get the screens from the local pakistani shops for about 150 bucks
