Hello house! I hav some parcels whch I tracked on nipost website&its showing collection since 6th Jan. Wheneva I go 2d post office, they'l tel me they didn't c it.

Is it possible it was sent to another post office lik my adress is area 3 Abuja&i'v collected ova 6 parcels frm Area 1 whch is d closest post office 2my ad.

Is it possible dat they sent it 2another post office or do I hav 2kick some asss 2get dem 2check thorough or sue their asses? Its frustrating. Damn!!

Lol.. no need to sue. Go to Area 10. I had the same challenge with my first parcel and I was directed to Area 1 when I got there, I met a woman who told me they saw my parcel and have sorted it out and were ready to send it to Area 10 where I have my P.O Box.. told her I can not go back there and it was almost time for closing.. They reluctantly looked for it and I collected it.

They have several attendants. with computers in Area 10, when you get there, give them your tracking number, that way they can tell you where you needto go and collect your stuff.

I'v bought jeweries frm aliexpress&they weren't fake although its not gold. Just don't bath wit it or spray perfume on it or harsh chemicals&It'l last.

Btw,if u'r buying 2resell,aliexpress is ur best bet cos Nigerians love cheap things. If they want quality&d ppl dat can afforÐ ,gold knw d way 2malam's shop 4gold&they knw d price.

I'l b back 2giv u some selling tips dat's working 4me.


Abeg no vex,can u remove Walmart frm there. All the thngs I eva bought frm there were fake. The cloths were of d lowest grades not 2mention d footwears.

They all buy frm China. I also bought frm almighty Kohl's store and their bags were made in China (even writtein on d label) and they didn't last as expected upon d price it was sold.




Really! And I have been stretching my neck towards that direction.. Have you used payless shoe source?

It's a pleasure to provide answers to your questions.

To enable me answer your question rightly, do you intend using Free Shipping (China Post, Singapore Post, etc) or a third party?

Then, again, from your latest post, aren't you buying (consumer) rather than reselling (reseller)?

Actually, I Just Want To Venture Into Importatn.
I Dnt Intent To Use Free Shipping Cos I Find Out That It Takes Time.
Whatever Am Buying Is Meant For Reselling Here In Nigeria.
Also, The Prices Of The Goods On The Sites, Are They Negotiable(bargain) Are Are Those The Final Price.

For you to make payments online with ur card, you will be required to fill in you secure code which the number that appears on your token device.

If you don't have one, Visit any GTBank branch and request for a token although u will be chrage around N2000+ (applies to GTB) Access bank token is N1500. I don't know of zenith and diamond coz I don't use dem.

There is this blog online, gingers note pad or something like that. On that blog alot of Nigerians who ordered from ASOS and had their stuff sent via Skynet had the same complaint - exhorbitant custom charges.

But I noticed that those who ordered one or two items were not charged as well as those who used free shipping - comes through the post office anyway.

Place order for it but dont make payment yet, then tell your seller to change the price appropriately as agreed. It will reflect on your order page, you then go ahead and make payment for it. Once you are done, notify him/her accordingly

Nobody want to take pains and read pages anymore, we all want immediate and already made solutions.

My brother, chosing your route of bringing in goods is dependent on a lot of factors - nature of the goods (perishable, expiring date, weight, packaging & size) how urgent it is needed, landing price against market price, prevailing custom duties, etc

Basically, most of the air cargoe logistic agents can also handle your sea shipping, but then, their effectiveness also depends on so many factors including their experience and expertise in maritime/sea clearance and forwarding etc. So yes, St. Patrick's, Nonnikings etc can do it for you

Contact any of the shipping agents when your goods reach their China office and inform them on the mode of shipment, sea shipping most times is cheaper but takes long to arrive
