Jumia still offer the best online retail in Nigeria. I am not a Jumia agent but, I have ordered from Jumia so many times and they don't fail. To the person saying it took them 60days to deliver a particular package someone ask you to give him the package number to verify but you nor gree. Please stop spoiling the image of others to promote yours.

I like you, because you rushed to comment, without looking at the screenshot, where time frame was given. Besides, if you read my post, you would understand what my issue with them is. Try to read to understand, rather than to argue. Thanks
Lol...!!!! i did look @ d time frame but deduced the correct thing unlike you. 7days delivery timeline given simply means d time span it will take them to deliver to you after it must have gotten to the Jumia station in Nigeria. Bros as long as na Global shipment, it takes between 10 to 22days to get to you

Hello...if you are buying from jumia.

Avoid jumia global and buy from merchants.what jumia does according to what I heard
they were trying to kill merchants business ripping them off using the global thing.they use the juicy slashed price to lure buyers pushing there, merchants items backward and pushing the jumia global items in front page.merchants who have same item in stock and can next deliver next day are now left in thr dark
..jumia now use the buyer money to purchase the item from abroad , you wait for months. 1 -3months before you get such item . That is what they call eccommerce. I pity the merchants. Be wise. Be smart. Eccomerce platform need competitors..amazon ebay and others don't work this way.create a platform that works for all .not a platform that works for only you. Konga seems to be better off.

You said they are trying to kill Merchant which is not correct, this is business you buy and sell to make profit not loss. Jumia don't manufacture any of those products they only buy and sell same thing applies to the Merchant you are talking about. What you don't know is that those merchants are just ripping you of your money for a product that could have been sold at a lower price and still enough make profit, but no the merchant sell at double the price they bought the product, and Jumia offer the same product at a lower price still making enough profit to keep their business moving. Talking about competition, I think you should thank Jumia cause they are creating the competition for the merchant.

Jumia global is actually a less stressful way to shop from China, I expect jumia to hike the prices but they still sell at the same very affordable prices as China.

You can Checkout jumia global Now its so irresponsible.


You just need to be patient as international delivery can take up to a month sometimes. Even on AliExpress.

Thus increasing the cost, you mean ?
If their service is good, why the need for an agent, a third party ?

Matter of fact, your suggestion proved the fact that Jumia service has been found wanting by many customers, doesn't it ?

No, there is no increase in cost, only agents have access to discount on shipping fee and free shipping too.

The main reason Jumia have agents is because they have direct access to Jumia.

Yh, it might be or might not be an issue depending on the customer.
The major issue here is trust, which I believe can be established when relating with the customer.
You have to pay here in Nigeria, let's talk on WhatsApp 08108169276.
There are many options you can go through.

You both are wrong, Jumia Merchants add the Transport fare to Jumia station whenever there is an order for their goods.
Some come from very far places, so the difference in price among merchants.
No merchant would willingly send customers away.

Stop being so ridiculous I have said it before I am not in any way connected to Jumia, but I am just realist who gave my point based on my experience.

Can you review the phone for me? The pros and cons and if it's a good buy.

Is there any deal breaker?

camera is disappointing. Battery is ok, like 10 hours heavy usage. Its fast though, cos of the 3gb ram. Its got 32gb rom, so thats more space to save stuff. Haven't checked out its 4G networks though. Its a hybrid sim thing, with either sim2 or memory card. Its an ok phone for the price i guess.

How's the performance? Multitasking, gaming, responsiveness, fingerprint speed and quality, sound quality etc..


How's the screen like? With its low resolution, is the display pixelated? How's the colour reproduction like and how responsive is the screen?

I'm more concerned about the selfie cam, how's it like?

cam is ok, nothing spectacular though. it's a nice phone for its price. haven't tried heavy games on it yet, just subway surfers, but so far it's doing a good job. browsing is fast and it doesn't hang. display is ok. sound is ok. again, nothing spectacular.

Sorry if I'm disturbing but this phone is in my shopping bucket along with other phones and it's difficult making a choice..
Battery nko? How many hours of heavy use and average use?
Re: Stay Away From Jumia, Or At Least Jumia Global. by sdavirus: 8:29pm On Sep 20, 2017
Update:
Spoke with them on phone, and I am told it left Lagos for Port Harcourt, 3 days ago, and it hasn't gotten to the warehouse here. I'm just wondering if Lagos has shifted to where Pretoria is or it's Lagos, Portugal.

On the 26th, it will be a month. Hopefully, package will be received this weekend.
