Popular social media critic Martins Vincent, known as VeryDarkMan (VDM), has warned Nigerian phone vendors against inflating prices for the newly released iPhone 18 series. In a viral video recorded inside an Apple Store in China on September 10, 2026, he cautioned dealers against overcharging local consumers under the guise of foreign exchange rates or shipping costs. He stated that if local vendors refuse to sell the new devices at reasonable profit margins, he will bypass them by sourcing the phones directly from manufacturers in China to sell in Nigeria at factory prices. He added that his market research in China revealed a significant price gap between production cost and retail rates charged by Nigerian importers.
