Dusra Waala — Raja Bazaar counter

Graded honestly, priced for the wear

Tanveer Abbas grew up in Raja Bazaar watching dealers sell the same scratched phone twice — once as "barely used," once as new. In 2016 he opened his own counter with the opposite rule: every set graded in the shop, in writing — Grade A minimal marks, Grade B visible wear, Grade C heavy wear — and exchanged free within seven days if it doesn't match its grade. With new flagships past three and a half lakh, his graded shelf between Rs 28,000 and Rs 165,000 is how Saddar buys its second phone.
