@r321, that works out to £3.50 per kilo? Where are you based? Do you charge extra for pick up and delivery in lagos. My current cargo guy is irritating me.



* Air freight charge is based on the highest chargeable weight i.e. the highest weight between the actual and the volume (dimensional) weight.

* Sea freight charge is based on the dimensions/ size of the item.

*Shipment leaves our warehouse every Friday. From the date of cargo departure from UK, it takes allow an estimated 5 to 7 days for arrival at the destination.

* Unless otherwise noted, all rates given cover clearing charges in Nigeria.

* When sending your goods please address it to yourself c/o Airfreight Dept.

Please send your packages to:

Your Name:
C/O Airfreight Department
326 New Cross Road
London
SE14 6AG



Find below our rate.

AIRFREIGHT FROM UK
LAGOS (pick up at Ikeja office) -£3.50/KG
LAGOS (Door delivery) - £3.95/KG

* Rates are based on the highest chargeable weight be it volume weight (dimensional weight) or actual weight.

E.g. a box with 59 x 59 x 59 weighing 30KG will be billed per below.
Volume weight: 35kg
Actual Weight: 30kg
Estimated rate: 35kg x 3.50 = £123 to pick up the item at our Lagos office.

Note:
• Rates to other destinations varies.
* All quotations given over the phone or online are estimates based on the dimensions or actual weight given by the customer.

It is so nice to see this thread, To know that one is not alone in this community here.

How come nobody has talked about EFG, MAKRO and less talk about Costco or is it only me that does bulk shopping.
I feel this are the places to get the deals.

We have a costco not far from where we live. . . But I always end up buying things that I dont need. I also find that sometimes when the main shops have special offers, the costco prices dont hold up. Plus the £30 a year reg fee kind of takes the "good value for money" away.

The only thing I think Costco is really good with is their meat. Very clean.

Their birthday cake, too much icing but my kids luv it

Well for me, I love alton towers in stoke-on-trent.

The only problem I have with alton towers is commuting there since I haven't got a car. But they've got nice rides and varieties for kids n adults.

I've never been to Thorpe park but my friends say its cool.
