Black Friday in Pakistan – here’s what we discovered

by Team PriceOye

Today on social media, you’ll find an interesting controversy surrounding Black Friday prices in Pakistan. Quite a few people are claiming online stores are offering fake discounts – that they’re apparently jacking up prices before reducing them a bit to give the impression of big price reductions.

We here at PriceOye have access to the latest market prices for smartphones, so it is possible for us to compare them with these Black Friday discounts offered by different stores in Pakistan.

We went through all of the most popular stores including HomeShopping, Daraz, iShopping, and what we discovered is interesting.

Scroll through the list below to find original mobile phone prices as claimed by the store, their new Black Friday discounted price, and the latest and lowest market price for that item on PriceOye.pk.
