I wish the company cc @shoptomydoor would answer this themselves. I have shopped using their address and there is no problem with their address.

You can put your Nigerian number or put shoptomydoor USA number on that column

Hello Durocity,

Please use your Nigerian phone number. This is best in case the store needs to contact you for any reason.
Thank you for choosing Shoptomydoor.com.

Shoptomydoor have regressed! It takes days for emails to be replied.they arbitrarily fix price for ur. Items,and we u send them imvoices,it takes days to get corrected.
The cost of shipping u get from using their Item Tool Calculator is different from the actual amt. Their will bill you when they use "magic" LxWxH voodoo.

Hello Sosa,

Not all shipments come with an invoice from the store when its delivered to us. So your warehouse personnel will typically estimate a value for customs purpose. Our platform allows you to easily change this. When you log into your warehouse, there is a link beside each shipment that says, "If the values of any item is wrong, please upload invoices". Once you upload your invoice, any wrong value is corrected within 24 hours, however if this request are many it will treated as they come.

For your second point, kindly note that the actual versus chargeable weight is programmed into the system and its based on the same formular used by all shipping companies. Chargable Weight = L x W x H /139.
That is the same formula used by other major shippers, this information is available online, so you could use google to read up dimensional weight to see this. Also note that when packaging your items, boxes are used and this might affect the overall shipping cost. So the final packaged weight may differ slightly from weights you see online. To combat this and to be sure customers know the actual shipping cost even before shopping, we have the "Item Quote Tool" online that enables you to enter the actual item and a shipping cost is displayed. For these, if there is any difference, we guarantee not to charge you more than the quote shows.

My last shipments #69252 and 69589 were disastrous! Item prices were mixed up,even after sending the invoices.sent invoices were used for newer items in my wharehouse, a secured item was packaged amongst non-secured items.and it took days for the price issues to be resolved,not 24hrs you claim.
Your item quote tool has 2 options,one for items with known dimensions, and the other for unknown dimensions.the price for a mobile phone or laptop should be known by you already cos u knw the size of packet you're going use.So the price I get when I use that tool for unknown dimension shld be the price I shld get when checking out.

I once wrote here on Nairaland on how to shop abroad and get it here in Nigeria using payonner MasterCard and so on but things have changed and i wish to update on the newer methods.

To shop in the USA, here are the main requirements:

- An internationally accepted MasterCard.
- A USA address that can deliver to Nigeria.

For MasterCard, a lot of Nigerian issued MasterCards are accepted on major USA sites. I have made use of GTbank Naira card as well as UBA Africard and i didn't have issues with them.


For a USA address, why you need this Address in the first place is because Some USA merchant sites don't ship directly to Nigeria so you'd need a company that is based in the USA that can issue you with a USA address so that when your orders or goods arrive, they can receive it and ship it to your Nigeria address.

I have made use of two companies for the USA address but let me talk on an indigenous company i discovered lately that is as swift as the foreign companies i used and even cheaper than the foreign counterparts.

The name of the company is SHOPTOMYDOOR.
This company gives a free USA and China address unlike others who charge about $10 or more to issue you one.
Their customer service is effective and efficient(you can even chat with them online).
Their charges per kg is one of the lowest i have used.
You can track your goods online from your dashboard once they receive and ship your goods.

You can register and get a free USA and china Address via this link:

https://www.shoptomydoor.com/invitations.php?parentid=17833


HOW TO SHOP AND SEND YOUR GOODS NOW YOU HAVE A USA ADDRESS

-Once you use your card on Amazon or eBay to shop, on the checkout page, you will be asked to provide your shipping address,
-Enter the address given to you from shoptomydoor, as your shipping address.
-Once you track your goods with the tracking number amazon or any other merchant site gives and discover it has been delivered to your address,
-Log on to your shoptomydoor account and you will see your goods added to your member area with amount to pay either in dollars or in Naira depending on the currency you choose in your settings.
-You can then make payment either to their Nigerian bank account or via their PayPal account.
-your job is done here and its now their job to ship it to you.
-Once they ship your goods, they will keep you updated at every point in time on where your goods are via email.

Let me stop here so far. Its not easy to type this epistle oh lol but i will try and answer any questions as far as i can and add more tips and cheaper places to shop abroad.

Happy New month to you all.

here is a link to my old thread on this same issue https://www.nairaland.com/1418753/how-buy-things-us-get




Great job but you didn't mention need for USA VPN IP,Nigeria paypal or preferably USA PayPal account because some top websites like target,children place etc don't allow one to access their site with Nigeria IP.
Re: How To Buy Things From USA And Get It Here In Nigeria (part 2) by Nobody: 5:40pm On Sep 13, 2015
Does one need to change IP and the rest while shopping?

Shoptomydoor, what has happened to you guys?!!!! You moved from using a world class logistics company (Fedex) to a one cubicle logistics one(Africa Market Technology).they don't even have despatch riders.you come to pick your deliveries yourself.

I sent several mails yet you replied none.
Tried having an online chat several times too but not connecting to an agent.
Called your customer careline several times but was not picked.
The issue is:
1. I was charged for shipment and delivery of two packages but i got one
2. The payment covered delivery to my house but i was called to come and pick up my item.
3. I asked that my goods should not be repackaged since i will be charged $5.99 for repackaging, so i paid for two boxes i.e two deliveries but my items were squeezed into a box which weighed less than what i was charged and far less than the dimensions you got and billed me for.
I spoke with an agent today as i did before i paid for d items to be shipped i didnt get any positive response.
I was overcharged and so want my refund.
Shipment no: 71485
