The nokia defective battery controversy having come in handy, the grey market is cashing in on the opportunity, pushing up sales of new Chinese phones that have hit the market lately.
Do you want to buy a 3 way sliding cell phone which allows you to play games and make calls at the same time or would you prefer a large screen mettalic cellphone on which you can watch videos with absolute clarity and all for just Rs 7,000?
If
you don't believe it, then head off to cell phone hotspots like the Gafar Market in the capital, the den for grey market cellphones where such Chinese cellphones are now selling like hot cakes.
While, sceptics would point out that such Chinese mobile phones would be unsafe since even branded cellphones are now prone to defects, buyers like Suleman Usif, a college student does not seem to bother.
