The times when there were huge lines in the mobile phone shops were long gone. Today, any shopping center has 3-4 outlets where mobile phones and accessories are sold. The competition is huge, but you have to earn. Therefore, cunning marketers are racking their brains to figure out how to lure you into the salon in order to sell their products as profitably as possible.

How it works
Sellers of communication stores receive not only salaries, but also bonuses from profits. Accordingly, the more they manage to pair, the higher their percentage. We are the source of their well-being. But do we want, besides our own family, to support someone else unfamiliar, or even a whole horde? If your answer is no, read on, for we will reveal the hidden traps with which the mobile phone salons deceive your finances.
No. 1: phone sales
The managers of a mobile phone store at a glance at their product see what percentage of its value will go to their account. Bonuses to sellers are already included in the price of each phone, about which they are informed.
What do you do? Do not fall under the charm of a beautiful woman, but listen to information about several models you like, then go home / to a cafe, sit on the Web, once again compare the advantages of phones and calmly choose the best option.
No. 2: accessories
If you urgently need headphones, a protective glass or a charger, be sure to overpay. The fact that they sell communication stores located within walking distance is several times more expensive than the exact same accessories in online stores. Want even cheaper? Welcome to Aliexpress.
Remember the saying: “Spoon is the road to dinner”? Communication stores sell what is required immediately that the buyer does not want to wait 2-3 weeks, but rather overpays. He pays. If the protective glass on AliExpress costs 100 rubles, the store can inflate the price up to 1,000 rubles. Want now - overpay. If you want to save, wait.
No. 3: additional services
Not everyone can stick the same glass on a smartphone, especially if it is curved. But almost every seller in the salon of mobile accessories will kindly offer his help in this difficult matter.
On your sold phone, the manager, with your consent, installs a new operating system, downloads Google or Yandex, disables applications that "eat up" the battery and makes many more useful settings, if only you pay.
No. 4: interest-free installments at a discount
Oh, that sweet word is a freebie! Do you still believe in her? Then you can not read further, because we will reveal the mechanism of deception when selling by installments.
Not really a hoax, so a fraud with the wording. Everyone saw an offer to buy an expensive installment phone at a lower price: such price tags hang in every communication salon. Everything seems to be super: pay a small amount once a month, and use the flagship model now. But not so simple.
The second option is an extended warranty, which seems to be designed to protect you from low-quality goods. The scheme is the same: without a guarantee, a loan for the phone is given with interest.
Now you know the main places where your money is lured in mobile phone stores. Informed - protected. Have a nice shopping trip!
The author, honestly, stop writing this. Your first point: Almost nothing is paid to sellers for Iron. 2nd point: Did you compare the quality of glass with Alik and glass in the cabin? The difference is huge, the glass from Alik is thin and never durable, they more resemble (than in fact they are) films pressed together. 3rd point: you can not argue with him, but as they say, "For any work you have to pay." 4th point: I agree, but this is a store promotion, without “special stages”, indeed, only a loan is selected, since the store itself pays interest on installments to the bank.
