Mahalaxmi Mobile Gallary

Our little shop, Mahalaxmi Mobile Gallary, is tucked away in Yerwada at Maninagar Maninagar Cross Road 103/B- 1. It’s a bit of a mouthful of an address, but once you find the cross road, we aren't hard to spot. We’ve got glass cases full of phones, though they usually have a few fingerprints on them from people looking closely. The shop is small and the air conditioner struggles a bit when the afternoon sun hits the front window. We do a lot of things here, from selling used handsets to fixing cracked screens that people bring in looking all worried. It’s a lot of fiddly work with tweezers and tiny screwdrivers. Sometimes we have to tell people a phone is beyond saving, which is never fun. We see all sorts of folks coming through, from grandmothers wanting to know how to use WhatsApp to young kids looking for the loudest speakers. The floor gets a bit dusty with all the foot traffic from the cross road, and we’re always sweeping up. It isn't a high-end boutique, just a local mobile shop where we try to keep things simple. We don't use any fancy sales talk, we just tell you what we have and what it costs. It’s a decent way to spend the day, even if the eyes get a bit tired from looking at those small circuits. We stay here until the last customer leaves and then we call it a night.
