You are absolutely right just as I've said above though I know China also do things for USA but USA do give them standard to follow else US government will not allow the product into their market.


Really so all these people in China, where do they buy thier genuine laptops from them? All the laptops i have iused are from the USA but made in China. I just felt they should be cheaper in the country that makes them

gcfr.com:
anything from china is made in china, thus have the qualities of chinese products. Only ebay sells original and authentic laptops.
Taaa! If the seller on ebay is from China, you will end up buying a Chinko product(s). The best thing is to check the location of the seller; since ebay houses sellers across the world.

Hi faatai2, nice work ure doing here. Pls I would like to know if I can avoid clearing agents on large consigment from start to finish. Nd is it advisable to import without going there to inspect the consignment or getting someone to do d inspection.
Re: Ask Me Anything On Importation Of Goods From China by CHIMSKY(m): 7:04am On Dec 16, 2013
fatai2:

It wll be a suicide to pay any alibaba seller with TT. Any seller that request payment with TT don't transact with him.

The most secured means of payment is debit or credit card through escrow. It gives alibaba opportunity to keep the money till you received ur goods in good condition. Brfore they release funds to the seller/supplier.
What is TT?

mayorall:


How on earth is that message spoiling your country image, how will you call yourself an importer who will buy quality things from a store and refuse to go back again. This isn't any trick its a form of negotiation, alibaba sellers don't sell to consumers , young Nigerians as mini importers we are like consumer. Or someone like me that needed 20 pieces of tabs, do you expect me to pore my fund on tab i havent seeing before at once .Sorry to say, I don't think you've imported from alibaba before that's why you gat no experience about it. Not an insult sir.

Lols, funny you, you thought the person won't pay for sample or what. You have to pay for the sample you are getting. I said "your first order is a sample". Meaning the buyer will pay not scam sir grin grin cheesy.
what's this one saying? I believe you got my point. Learn to do d right thing. Sample indeed.

Phder: Hi! @OP, I placed an order last week on Dhgate, I got the dispatched notification on Friday, am using DHL as my courier service, am a little bit concerned right now, because the tracking number is not working, my question is am I just being naive? Does it take that long before shipping information is updated on their website? I am buying the item as a Christmas gift so timing is of uttermost priority, do weekend counts as working days for courier services? Or the official working day is Mon-Fri? Thanks.


Be patient, its cos of xmas. Goods are too much, they are now shipping directly. It
takes 48hours once your products is picked up to get to Nigeria

My package from them coming from China just started tracking yesterday after 7 days and its already in Germany, am sure it will get to Nigeria today and send to me tomorrow.

My friend chrisvicmall is one of d expensive sites to import goods. But can try alibaba for small and for trial.

However, I am refering to importation as a business man or woman, I know much about china major cities and what you can buy and ship direct to lagos or Kano.

Guys forget about these issues of importation from china. We can build on our own products here in Nigeria, like exporting AKPU to china and teach them how to eat it, they have the biggest market. Stop importation and start thinking EXPOTATION...
