This is a reply to a post but I do not have enough privileges to post a reply - so i opened one please advice if this is the wrong place

Just wandering if there is any legal way or using third party to order items from Ebay or Amazon and have it delivered to naija

This post https://www.nairaland.com/1014858/buying-ebay-now-available-nigerians - seems to address it but the site mentioned in the post

shopizee.com is broken/dead.

Any advice.

Thanks

Thanks for your reply.

But it looks like buying that way will probably cost you a bit more.

When item are sent via DHL from lets say Uk, do you need to pay customs on arrival?

Yes you can buy from Amazon directly but problem is shipping as at last year I happily ran a joint business with a friend, we bought things and brought them to Nigeria through a 3 party shipping company, it's called MYUS but their charges are high though. but the funny thing is that its either cheaper or a little bit higher than Nigerian prices.
U register as a Nigerian on Amazon with your Nigerian credit card although it's advised to check banks exchange rates to know the cheapest bank exchange rate then u register with your bank card use google for advice, wrong details on anything and u can't purchase, next u can opt for prime membership, it's risky cuz if you don't deactivate it after registering for trial and it's expires you will be charged, it's useful because you can order prime things and get dem shipped quickly, now to myus, on registering u are supplied with an address dats where you send your goods to from Amazon, now there are two types of membership here standard or premium, premium is better if you shipping plenty things at the same time because you can combine goods and pay less and dey bring it to your Nigerian address specified. Den you still have to pay Nigerian customs else ur goods will be held at the airport till you pay. the good thing is that maximum 5days u get your goods if you go about it well enough.

For eBay purchase haven't tried it
