Plz o I'm scared o. Me that I just ordered phone from Ali express. I hope dem no go thief am for naija o.
But the order was declared as replacement part and 20usd. Instead of a phone.
I hope am safe o.

You're safe bro, most of my phones order use to be declared as phones parts, digital cameras, birthday gift and so on, sellers are doing this to help the buyers reduce the stress of receiving the package and the custom issues and also not to pay extra fee while receiving the package,

Some sellers do tell the buyer that they will declare the order as a gift in other to help them and also to avoid the issue of dispute.

Before buying stuff from AE, we should make sure to confirm exchange rates of each bank before placing an order... This can be doen using this url..... https://www.ngnrates.com/bank-rates

That is what many people don't know. The price in Nigeria currency you are seeing in aliexpress is not accurate to the dollar . The exchange rate determine the real price. Banks charges are very high now. So things here are cheaper.

While making order on AliExpress, just zero your mind that delivery time is the 75th day. If you can't wait, don't bother cuz if you buy 2 items from same store and packed separately but same shipping company, both may still not arrive same day despite leaving the store same minute.

It depends on what you ordered, the store you ordered from and the shipping company/currier you used and also your luck, because in spite of Covid19 i received some if my orders in just 17 days but some took up 90 days, so it's unpredictable, most especially if you order Xiaomi phones and some other items.

Just a matter of time and AliExpress will stop shipping to Nigeria. Na small remain

Exactly, With the rate of loss package and refund rate coming from Nigeria.very soon Aliexpress seller will stop shipping to Nigeria.I think there is a need to call out this Nipost people and custom.98% of the loss item are stolen here in Nigeria by this people.Aliexpress seller are running business too, when we ask for refund they make loss.
If you order valuable items such as phone.forget its a 50:50 thing.its either you get it or this people steal it.
I order a phone since febuary 15th, the package left china on the 22nd till today I did not receive the item.I open a dispute they refund me back my money today.

..... You are very correct on this, i have experienced this on several occassion. Bought kingston memory card, got notification that my order has arrived nigeria with Aliexpress standard shipping, open a dispute and the seller was able to provide an evidence. They did not refund my payment. Please how can we really fight for this in this country? Lots of abnormalities is on going in our country, One thing is to buy stuff from China, another thing is to arrive Nigeria succesfully and the other thing is for the item to get missing. Enough of all those hanky panky demeanour in this country.

Did you go to your local PO then ? Sometimes those workers there become really complacent with their work and don't call for pick up, I've also had a case where my order arrived but my number wasn't visible on the package

I ordered LG device. with aliexpress standard shipping.
The seller ratings were good. Most ppl comment fast shipping.
But does it matter since it's still ae standard shipping. Does the delivery depends on each seller? .coz I don't understand why some orders comes late and some in matter of weeks

AE standard shipping is preferable and i always use it,

Let me give a simple explanations,

Sometimes, order delayed for many reasons, it might be currier issue, for example if they don't have much items to dispatch to Nigeria at the time you ordered, they will have to wait for more people to order and handover to them, but if you're lucky enough to Order when the shipping company almost ready to dispatch or the time scheduled to be dispatch is near, then you will receive your package in no time, I've received a package from AE in just 12 days before and some order received after 30 to 60 days with the same AE shipping so that's why i said earlier that it doesn't matter and also it do make difference,

Another big reason is our Nigeria Post office people, most especially the sorting centre in Lagos, they may delay items for more than 30 days before sending to the local PO

My fear now is not even to ship from China to Nigeria, but the real fear is how the nipost bring my package to my local PO.
Also do consider ordering your items during business day, like from Monday to Thursday, not really compulsory as you can order at anytime any day even in the midnight but i have my reasons,

As it is now, i will suggest or advise to place order only if you could wait until anytime it comes because nobody knows, AE is something else now,
Just place your order and forget about it for a while and don't expect it any time soon and who knows, you may receive your package even faster than expected.

PEACE ✌️

Just check your local PO to confirm if it's there already, because they use to forget to call people for their package,
If not there, just extend your BP because to win dispute for that kind of issue isn't gonna easy.

Banks have a $100 limit per month, your only options are to either ask the seller for split payment so you pay with different ATMs, open a dollar account and fund it with dollars or use barter by flutterwave app

Barter by flutterwave. Is you creating a Virtual MasterCard and funding with the amount you wish to spend. You use the virtual card number like you would do for any other ATM Card.

It's the seller that should give you the option if they're okay with it, most of them don't agree to it.

Barter by flutterwave is an app owned by flutterwave you can download from play store, I've not used it personally so I can't tell how it works
