Depends on your definition of BEST

If you understand what's happening, doubt you would say such. Being BIG has it's PROs and CONs.

Take for instance, between Stanbic IBTC and Norrenberger Equity based investments, though both made massive profits for their investors, Norenberger made much more despite Stanbic IBTC being the biggest player. Reason being there are risks Norrenberger can afford to take which Stanbic IBTC wouldn't want to in other to protect funds of her investors. In other words, Stanbic would have to be less Agressive than Norrenberger.

Don't worry, those with millions and billions in investments know where they go to by default and their reasons

Which risk are they avoiding? Is it the one that gives them red days every time?

When a fund manager is doing well, let's just give them the praise.

zubebs:
Please which website dis you use oooo, my both phone are still stuck on customs clearance started since 4th and 9th of April
AliExpress customer care said I should wait 🙅🤷

AliExpress

Those of you always complaining about GT and stanbic, can't you move your funds?

Abi which kind loyalty be this

Can never be loyal to any fund manager except they're making my head swell...

Cardinal is 7.40%

CSblackpink:
Thunder will fire tonight.

CS shocked us yesterday. I hope it won't turn out as yesterday too

Niiade:
Zedcrest has beaten CSOF of 100m minimum deposit, omo Zedcrest no wan gree again.

Let's hope this will force CS to reduce the 100m requirement and even make the investment public. Zedcrest is a big threat to other guys in this game.

your post is confusing. You said someone had obviously stolen your phone then "what saved me..."
Was your phone stolen or not?

The phone was supposed to come to the delivery office (post office) with my my tracking number, name, address and phone number. When I got to the post office, they found a package with my phone tracking number. They checked and discovered the tracking number was only pasted on the package and not as it's normally printed. They were shocked as well. The name, address and number on the tracking number is completely different. They then decided to have a look and discovered that the package contained jamb past questions. They sealed and sent it back to Lagos collection centre as I was told by one of the bosses there.

Now, if the person with the name on the package with my tracking number had collected the package, AliExpress will record it as delivered at there end because they are only concerned about the status of tracking number. So how do I proof to AliExpress that I didn't get the package if the person had collected it?

I hope you understand the story now.

No one is denying your experience, but that isn't the case the vast majority of the time. Your experience makes for less than 10% of those who order from AliExpress.

The bulk of persons here who order gadgets get them. I ordered 2 tablets last year and got both of them and both came through NIPOST. I've ordered phones too in the past and got them. I have family who have ordered phones over the years and not had issues.

The vast majority of complaints you'll see here is delay. The NIPOST route is exhaustingly long and most times you'll even have to request for a refund before your parcel gets to you. This has happened to multiple people here who has to request for a refund then weeks later got notification either by their tracker or Nipost that their item arrived.

So for anyone who wants to order for phones on AliExpress, they need to know they'll need a lot of patience but it will most likely get to them. If you can't wait then use 3rd party vendors who can order for you and ship in the items on your behalf.

To each his own...

I still maintain my stand.

If you can't guarantee your gadget will go through speedaf or any other guaranteed shipping agents, buying gadgets on AliExpress is not worth it.
The risk and the long waiting period (if it eventually comes) is not what I wish for anyone.

Olamak1:
Don't generalize it because that's not everybody's experience!

That you encountered difficulty in receiving your item doesn't mean others will experience same.
All my mobile phones from AliExpress had been delivered through Nipost, without any story of theft.

The only reason I won't encourage anyone to place a direct order for mobile phone at the moment bothers on the delay in delivery being experienced in recent times.

Just because you haven't experienced it doesn't mean they should take the risk. Haven't you seen people complaining bitterly about missing items lately, particularly gadgets?

joeburgetto:
Bro have you received your order? And what phone did you buy? Did custom ask for any extra payments? I want to buy Redmi Note 15 5G, so I want to be sure about this custom whalala

Don't try it. They will steal your phone. We don't know if it's Nipost or Custom staff doing that.

The phone I ordered came in with a different name and address but same tracking number.
When checked by Nipost at the delivery office, it was past questions they put inside instead of the phone. Obviously, someone has stolen it.

What saved me was that I quickly went to the post office immediately I noticed it has gotten there on the tracking website I used.
If not, someone else would have collected the parcel with the name on it, and AliExpress will mark it as delivered and that is the end with my money.


Buy your phone here if it's in Nigeria, if not, check jiji maybe you can find a seller who has the phone.

DataAnalyst2022:
So yakubu is red while Kanayo is green right?

You people will not kee me o lol. Catching cruise while making money

Yakubu manage

Try manage!!!

Encitee3991:
Most of the theft happens during offloading for custom clearance.
If you've been to Nahco, and see the inspection and search that nipost workers there are put through, you will know it's hard to steal items.
My discussion with an insider revealed that during offloading, that's when the theft takes place.

Wow!
Who are the offloaders? Is it the shipping companies or custom?

Iykopee:
Is it advisable to order a phone from Aliexpress these days?

I want to purchase a phone right there.

Don't try it. They will steal your phone. We don't know if it's Nipost or Custom staff doing that.

The phone I ordered came in with a different name and address but same tracking number.
When checked by Nipost at the delivery office, it was past questions they put inside.

If not, someone else would have collected the parcel and AliExpress will mark it as delivered and that may be all with your money.

Beeron:
This is not to knock your hustle bro

But I'm so much concerned because if you are young. Time is going; we are getting old everyday that passesby.

The reason you advertised here is because you want more clients but you also failing to realize that A.I is slowly taking over this your line of trade.

So why still wasting your time in denial to keep indulging in it when you could learn another skill AI cannot replace. The more A.I advancement, the quicker your expertise turns obsolete, the harder it becomes for you to see clients.

I can bet my balls, he's also using AI

Preator:
Thats a lot. Only done 2% in NGX b4.

CS hs done 5.34% or thereabout in a day before in February

CSblackpink:
CardinalStone subscribers, tonight is your night.

They should be expecting 7% + tonight

Iamblessed8888:
😂😂 it’s the weighted average of all 3

It's still 1

Weighted addition is allowed to be 3 sha

Iamblessed8888:
Huge gains incoming. Cardinal stone may do above 1% tonight. I am stationed across all 3 top fund managers so if they all do above 1%, this means 3% for me.

Lol... Who dash you 3%

It's still 1% of all the funds joor

Iamblessed8888:
Open zedcrest too. Keep majority there, followed by paramount then CS. Paramount and zed are somewhat correlated just that zed always does double of paramount daily. CS is the least correlated to them both; meaning CS can bring green even when the other 2 bring red but growth is conservative.

How's the withdrawal process for zedcrest? Any limitation whatsoever?

I went to the post office to get my parcel, the parcel was brought out and the woman at the counter discovered my tracking number was on the parcel with another person's name and address.

I'm confused. In fact they were also confused too.

I don't know who's done the scam between nipost and the AliExpress seller.

To cut the long story short, I've opt in for return and I'm presently waiting for the result.

zubebs:
Wow
I can see
Thanks you for your response 🙏
I was scared for a second

Not encouraging though but one just needs to be patient with anything nipost handles

zubebs:
Good evening guys, I paced an order for a redmi phone since last month it's supposed to have gotten here but got stuck at starting customs clearance since 4th of this month.
Please I hope all is well ooo. Has anyone experienced this before, is it just normal delay or there's a secondary reason for this?
Find attached screenshot
I'll appreciate any response on this 🙏

It takes time (2 -3 weeks)

See mine

JooEeL:
So because of that Arsenal will always keep beating Bayern abi?

Some of una dey always reason like toddlers. No be same Atletico wey beat Barca 4-0 just 4 weeks ago, just chop 2-1 beating this weekend from same Barca?

Atletico even chop 3-0 before 2-1

Bluearrow:
The month that falls in end of any quarter usually gets slow top up. Top up are temporarily suspended for some fund managers because of quarter ending computation, something like that. Maybe u should send them a mail. But I am sure it will reflect by next week Monday. My top up on paramount I did on 31st is yet to reflect too for the same reason.

Next week Tuesday or Wednesday actually. Monday is another public holiday.

Parcel has been in 'customs clearance started' state for 3 weeks now. Should I still be patient or go for a refund?

Iamblessed8888:
Mehn, red days will be bloody lol but so will the greens. I kinda prefer the current timeframe.

EquityM is in your dm, please check your mail

LoriHamo:
Lol....it was a bad month for my equity investments...

Like it "ate" into February returns in some of my Investments...

Which fund manager is that? I still have around 4.12% mtd

Creditalerts:
you are showing me greens from international investment, please show me your two weeks local investment progress🤣


I'm not against where you put your money but I'm a realist on investment principles.✌🏾


I wish you Goodluck

The moment I started seeing your post here, I knew you wanted to mock us. Anyway, jokes on you.

Here's for your viewing pleasure. Despite the slow movement this month, already achieved 4.62% (MTD rate). And this is local equity investment.

So, go back to wherever you came from

EquityM:
A balanced fund sometimes returns higher gains than equity.

Also, the security weight may be different. The huge chunk they gave MTN may not be that high with balanced fund.

princezzz:
Cardinal stone equity recorded a - 0.28 all red while balanced fund did a + 0.23 all green.

What are these people calculating 😂
