But what i want u to understand is that. From my point of view. You telling her that you're going to write bad review of her product was wrong of you and out of line.
You could have told her that her product was expensive and you can get it at a cheaper rate without you threatening her.

Thanks and same to you


you didnt read d convo from the beginning smiley , maybe u shouldnt just judge from "the part" u saw. merci. safe

Fellow importers, I greet u all . Hope u had a stress free weekend. I just thought I should share my little encounter with a seller on AE with u guys, I placed an order after checking her reviews, product quality, and all of that. As God would have it, she delayed in processing my order, so I decided to check if other sellers have the same product for sale , u won't believe that another seller displayed d same item for $3!!!! And she wanted to sell for $19. I requested order cancellation , after waiting for more than 24 hours, she replied me that I should change my reason for cancellation before she will agree to it, I didn't waste time, I replied her ASAP that if she doesn't cancel that order soon , I'll escalate dispute and the kinda nasty review I would post ehn with evidence, may God help her if she's able to sell that item again. please let's ensure that we tie all lose ends, compare ,ask for discounts , check reviews, ask for true pictures and all of that. I'm still learning too and experience they say is the best teacher. I just thought to share so one or two people wil learn from this. Y'all have a blessed week

Let me drop my own opinion.
1). I don't think d seller was trying to cheat u. U have the contact seller option where u can negotiate prices to the bearest minimum. I can negotiate like crazy. Just post the order&don't pay immediately then the seller will contact u then u start negotiating.

Different stores sell at different prices cos of what they have to offer (my thoughts though). Some stores u c dat do free shipping,add d shipping to d items so things are more expensive in their stores but stores that charge shipping fee 2send to u sell cheaper.

2). She told u to change the reason why u'r cancelling the order cos if u choose a bad reason like "seller refused to send my item, aliexpress will penalize the store so some sellers send me messages when i want to cancel an order that"s taking so long to ship or items seller tells me is out of stock after payment has been made so they tell me to chose the option of "i don't want this anymore" so that aliexpress will know its ur own decision not the fault of the seller cos the seller has to approve the cancelation b4 its finalized.

Anyway, we learn everyday, thank u for sharing.

please brothers help check out this
watch I want to order if it is ok. Am a
beginner please help.
the total cost Plus shipping fee of the
below watch down to Lagos is N4,833
per one. my question are
1 is the my buying cost ok for the
watch?
2 how much do you thing I should sell
the watch ?
Thank you

Please buy only 1 piece and wear it regularly for a period of one month. Between that time,u'l be able to acertain if it'l fade or not&if its a good engine watch.

If u'r a student, or hoping to sell to students,it won't sell fast cos its way too expensive.

****I bought a flashy wristwatch for the first time frm AE&b4 i knew it within 2days of wearing it, it stopped working then the hand screw fell off. I just dropped that watch aside for now.

2ndly, when u wear the wrist watch u'l c if ppl will admire it on ur wrist then when they ask u where&how much u bought it,u tell them ur brother sent it frm UK&that he wants to send like some more pieces for u 2sale&its going for 10k. At that,u'l see their reaction,if they want 2buy due to d price&so on. I'm talking from experience.

Please don't tie down ur money on such expensive items u'r not sure of how u'r going 2sell it. U'l be frustrated.

Between,i'm so not fascinated by the wristwatch. There are better wrist watches on AE but i'm not sure of chain wristwatches cos most of the jewelry i bought from AE ended up fading so i stay away from their chain wristwatches.

francawilson hello dearie. thank so much for ur contribution. its actually not from one seller. im buying from various sellers and before making any purchase, i read reviews, chat with the seller and request for a TRUE PICTURE of the item, if im ok with it, i make payment. as i type, some orders have been shipped, iv cancelled some due to bad reviews, high delivery fee, quality of item , among others.

really appreciate your comment dear. God bless .

I won't lie eh! AE sells nice things. So many things i've bought so far from there,so many of them are deck. When ppl see me with it,they're like "Oh my gush! Where did u buy this? Abroad? And i'm like "Kind of" lol after all China na Abroad na.

Don't panic,i bet u'l love them. Still come here&tell us if they turned out good after u get them.

Be careful how you drop poor reviews and open disputes, hence, it will hurt your soonest.
Abeg what is d implication of giving poor reviews or opening too many disputes cos me if i get any rubbish,i open dispute which i stil end up cancelling once the seller say ship back my item cos Abuja post office charge too much 2send items to China.I've neva followed any dispute thru but for knowlege sake please expantiate on d implications of opening disputes abeg.

I want to pay for goods over $3000 and my bank keep declining the transaction saying it exceeds daily spending limit.. Meaning I will ve to pay $300 for 10 days.. Is there any other way to bypass this?

It depends on the bank or account or something diamond bank calls NIP limit. Like my access visa card (i run a current account); their own limit is 200k. I remember when i was supposed 2pay for something on alibaba for $1880. They kept declining until i called the customer care&asked them to lift the card limit for that day alone.

So call GTB customer care&find out.

Between, how do u intend 2ship the $3000 worth of items? Thru China post or thru an agent or via DHL?

Francawilson . have u been using chinapost on an average, how long should i expect my orders via cp? tnksss

Yes dear,i use Nipost 2get all my items except hair products and other transactions on alibaba but the rest i get through Nipost but i pay thru my nose 2get them from the post office. They're so mean that they charge per weight like 0.3kg (#300) (0.5kg and above, #500 each). Some post office charge 500 naira whether small or big so that's d challenge so when u'r shopping, make sure its worth d long wait&d money u have to pay.


The time frame depends on the shipping coy&the city they're sending d items from (like if u'r sending items from Lagos to China,it'l arrive faster than shipping from Maidugri to China [My thoughts though]).

Singapour post takes average of 15-21 days to get to Abuja's Wuse PO; Hong Kong post take 14-21 days but i've gotten items from China post within 10 days, some took longer. Like i said, depending on alot of factors.

I don't know also if China airmail arrives quicker or so.

You are now master of aliexpress, but aliexpress items are too expensive for those prices and most products on aliexpress have grades in terms of quality.

Hello jolly good fellows!!! A very good evening to you all..

Am looking to import machines for my business but these machines are pretty much heavy (looking at the prices charged pa kg for importation), so it seems from the estimates that cost of importation will be higher than some of the machines to be purchased. How do I deal with this excessive importation costs? Do manufacturers send stuff to Nigeria free (on Alibaba)?

The cheap ones fade under few days. Try the expensive ones. I stopped trading in those stuffs when their quality cannot be guaranteed anymore.
