Nipost is trying. I received a package through them, but it didn't come from USA, sorry. It came from HongKong, they brought a mail to my house that I should come to my post office to collect my package. So they are trying. |

Hello, Sent jewelry worth about $250 on Friday. My Nigerian contact got a message/call to come pick-up today. She will have to pay N1,500 to get the goods out which I considered reasonable. Pick up will be at their shomolu office. When she picks up I will let you know how that went. Mind you I used express mail (the 3 - 5 business days service with insurance (comes with default insurance but I had to pay like $2 to insure it to the $250 level) and NOT the priority mail which is 6 - 10 business days - was informed at the office that express mail or registered mail with insurance is probably the way to go for Nigeria). For an idea on size, I used the flat rate medium box but the weight was no more than 5 pounds from what is written on the receipt they gave me. |

you shouldnt have a problem. i send valuable items through this channel on a regular basis, and there has never been an issue. except they charge ridiculous amounts for the receiver to pick it up regardless of what u declare as its value. they have their own value estimation system. |

But why EMS instead of NIPOST? |

@dammy you will get a text when it arrives in Nigeria and you will have to pay some fee to pick up. The fee is from N1000 and above, depending on what you bring in. |

vjbanti: It depends on what the item is declared to be. There's a certain limit of worth in dollars that you will need to pay. I'm not sure of that amount. I have shipped upto $10 before. And didn't get to pay extra. Someone I know shipped in a laptop and he paid close to 10k at customs. |
