A reader sent me the following pictures which he took with his phone while visiting an Alghanim Electronics showroom. It seems they are selling HP supplies which are not meant for resale. If it was a small shop in Hawalli I would expect this.. but they’re not a small shop in Hawalli.

Now thats a ripoff! lol
Let’s notify HP!! (6)
Can we sue? =D
The question is whether these free samples were removed from HP printers that Alghanim sells or not!
Wow. I expected better of Alghanim.
It’s a fake! the whole thing is sealed with this free stuff, I think this was attached to a printer
Welcome to Alghanim Electronics in Kuwait!
If they are selling it cheaper than usual, then its fine. If I had a hundred printers in stock that no one would buy and newer models came along, I would have done the same to get as much out of my purchase as I can. But sure I would have sold them cheaper than the norm.
I had a bad experience with Alghanim as well, when i went to purchase my HP i took home a very well wraped box which contained my NEW laptop. when i unwrapped the laptop and turned it on i found that its name is Kareem Abdul Mohsin!! The laptop was already logged in, used and named!! I went to them and claimed NEW one with no name because this is what i paied for. SO BE CAREFULL PEOPLE.
I went there to buy a ps3, and they told me there is an offer ps3 + 4 games for 180kd. I didn’t want any of those games (crappy collection) so I asked for only a console the seller said “no we won’t sell console without game, tell me now you want this or not..” at the point I simply walked away without a reply, which I guess was a rude response he totally deserved it.
I wanted to buy some laptops from alghanim-electronics for my firm , i dont speek arabic , because i am from south africa , i thought alghanim will be the better place , so i visted alghanim in avenues, the store is very good , but the problem is the sales staff , i asked one of the staff for a specific laptop, but the sales person doesnt understand proper english , he was talking about the laptop which i dont want , and was un abel to talk to me in english properly . i would request the company to teach the staff how to speak english and understand this is the time of global lisation, and many new company are coming up.
Alghanim have the highest margin on its products. Its about 30% Profit Margin
I ad a friend wo used to work in alghanims management head office. He had told me that they out of the 400 million kd they sell each year, their gross margin is 38%
I think kuwaitis are an easy target.
You buy a product say for kd 100 and after 15 days you find that it is being sold by them for 50.
Their staff are under educated and under payed (180 kd basic). Even the lebanese are brought from the villages.
Yes.. Al-Ghanim is full of Egyption & Labnies. Most of them are uneducated & not professionally trained. They select staff on behalf of their personal relations. Conducting interview is a fake.
sales man in IT department are totally unknown about Hardware of their product, they just know Processor, RAM & HDD. If someone ask them some technical question am sure they can not reply well.
180KD basic salary they are giving & bouns might be more than basic salary. This is bull shit. They are not writing basic salary more than 180kd for sales man because if they write it more than 180kd as basic salary..they have to give them more facilities as company policy.
I had very bad experience with al gahnam electronica that why I well never ever go back again me or any one I know tow time I buy items and it`s not working when I go home and try it and when I go back for them after two day or 3 they tell me sorry you need to go to warranty ,I supposed to buy brand now item so it well work perfectly not to doubt it well work or not a when it`s not working you suppose to change it immediately with appliques for the unconvinced you causing it to your customer not to argue
