I know HGC logistics used to do door to door business from china to Nigeria. Why not send them a mail on hgcnigeria @yahoo.com or call 08188927964. I am sure they can advise you on all your shipment both sea and air. And the good thing about them is that they will tell you the truth.
Regards

Ops,
Good work; keep it up. I have a manufacturer in China who instead of Escrow is willing that I pay into a PayPal account. Is it safe and what are the modalities?
Re: Ask Me Anything On Importation Of Goods From China by Wealthyone: 11:46am On Dec 19, 2013
Hello everyone, I'd like to confirm if anyone paid recently on aliexpress with any nigerian (visa or master) cards? Because, few days ago, I successfully paid for few items with ecobank visa card but unfortunately, I have not been able to pay with the same card for my oda placed orders. All I keep getting was error msgs. I tried Diamond visa card which didn't work as well n went to fbn on Monday to get there mastercard. Since Monday, the mastercard and that visa cards neva paid successfully. I had a chat with there online customer agent on Tuesday who informed me dey don't accept debit visa or mastercard anymore. Western union is a good option but quickpay isn't available in nija as we can only receive and not send. I keep hearing gtbank mastercard n ubaafricard here, my question is are dis cards debit? Are dey still accepted on aliexpress as of ystd or today? How much does uba or gtb charge? If yes, pls, let me know. Thanks.

It's been said times without number on this thread not to deal with any supplier that's not ready to use escrow. This is for the safety of your money. It's better you find another supplier if he's still adamant.

Someone suggest a shipping agency please
Re: Ask Me Anything On Importation Of Goods From China by showoff(f): 4:17pm On Dec 19, 2013
Chrisvicmall:
lt is possible but you need invitation letter from the company. The problem with getting invitation letter is your company might be in a city or town not authorized to issue invitation letter to foreigners. Even when they are authorized to issue visa, the company will know you well before they do that and also not all companies has the right to do that.

That is why at the end, agents remain the better option but more expensive

Chrisvicmall, how much would you be willing to ship a toy car 17.5Kg to nigeria from Alibaba supplier, and am also thinking I could pay through you since the supplier is sinsisting on western union and money gram payment. Thank you.
Re: Ask Me Anything On Importation Of Goods From China by lovelyface: 4:54pm On Dec 19, 2013
I know HGC charges about 9.75 US Dollar per kg to pick and deliver in Lagos. Though this could be negotiable if the weight is much. Anyway why not talk to them. Its been long I used them

Not all sites/merchants require a securecode e.g www.asos.com , play.google.com e.t.c The securecode has to be set by you and will br used on each site that requires it.
