Something I Never Expected from a Shop in Instagram

Instagram shops have been popping left and right, selling shirts, cellphone cases, packed food, and more recently, powerbanks. All of them would ask you to fill up a form and I could imagine how some owners would be irritated with inquirers who can't understand the simplest instructions.

I've always wanted to order something via an Instagram shop but being unsure about the quality of the product and processing time usually stop me from purchasing.

I've never stopped browsing, though.

A close friend of mine will be celebrating his birthday and part of his wishlist is a powerbank. Another friend already bought online and I decided to just give it a try. I went to Instagram.com/Powerbanksale_Manila and looked for what my friend described.


The owner, Frirz Valle, quickly replied to my inquiries. A short order form was sent to me, including a warranty agreement. Payment was sent via BPI's Mobile Banking App. I had its Tranfer-to-Anyone feature already activated so the transfer happened in less than a minute. Everything was confirmed and I was left to waiting. And the waiting was surprisingly short. I ordered it the afternoon of March 14 and I received everything March 15, in the morning.


@Powerbanksale_Manila on Instagram has something other shops can't provide. From inquiry, payment, to the delivery, everything was easy, fast, and complete in less than 24 hours! If I need to give another powerbank, I'd definitely choose this shop again!
