Chuckdee you need one? Cheapest so far is sosogames on Konga for 14K5

You are quoting the wrong person buddy.. I don't need. already have a copy.

cao:
Yup. Frell is from Farscape and d'arvit is from the Artemis Fowl book series. I'll get a PS4, I'll probably see what the Christmas sales have to offer.

Cool.... Been aching to get a PS4, keep on holding myself.. the wifey is gonna have my head the day i get another console
Still got the wii and ps2 stashed! I guess I will def get it this xmas in preparation for Uncharted 4

When your console freezes and you proceed to act like it's the end of the world.
Note: This is happening right now. In the middle of my bloody mayhem activity. Frak you PS3, you frelling frakking piece of shtako. D'arvit!
**yes my nerd game is strong - curses from 3 sci-fi shows & one sci-fi/fantasy book series**

hahahah! Take it easy dear lol! The ps3 can be annoying, i guess age is finally telling on it. I do love mine so much that it often gets more love than my xb1. Maybe you could try picking off a bergain off of ebay? lots of dem floating around these days. I am guessing the 'frak' is from Battlestar Galactica?..... 'shtako' from Defiance?

Wow!.. that game is just simply W.O.W!
The cinematics,the graphics, the gameplay.... its just beautiful!
I got it 2 days ago for PS3 and even though its on a last gen console, its still lovely, I have been hooked on my console all weekend playing, Hideo Kojima pulled it off once again!
Will still get it on Xb1 later as well.

Btw, anybody in abuja with a jailbroken ps3 can just contact me and I will gladly give you a copy free of charge.

Hi. I'm quite curious to know your banker in Nigeria. You mean with documents like a proforma invoice and others I can remit money oversea?

I have tried both UBA and ACCESS Bank, they both rejected dollar transfer, even with the invoice.

Which bank you dey use?

@gboyetade the wise one, oya answer and state exactly how easy and how many weeks it will take you to achieve that aim.

Chinom:
No body's personal opinion is an offence. Including mine. But a situation in which a Nigerian will go to a Nigerian bank and demand to be paid in Dollars from his dom. account is crazy. I have travelled all over the world. Even in the most shitty countries in the world, the only way you can get dollar or pound sterling is through forex. either through the banks or the BDCs ( parallel market ).
If you do not know how to transact foreign businesses using Naira, then you're a novice in the business world. We cannot allow a situation in which someone will pay in Dollars into a Nigerian account and still make withdrawals in Dollar.
If I'm not mistaken, I think Western union has even started outward transfers from Nigeria in Naira. I can bet that this new policy of the banks, though temporary now, will become permanent with PMB in power.

ALL CASH BANK TRANSACTIONS IN NIGERIA SHOULD BE DONE IN NAIRA. Chikena !!

Now, i like the tone of your response...reasoning like the adult you are. Now, quick question for you: In any of those shitty countries you mentioned, are you aware you can walk into your bank, file a form and have money transferred to any other country and that money will be deducted from you account, converted to the receiving country's local currency and you are done. Can you walk into your FIRST bank or any other Nigerian bank and ask them to send money to any other country? NO, they won't and yet the CBN is comparing the environment they created here in Nigeria to that of the US..crazy.
I totally agree with you that all cash transactions in nigeria and even to send to other countries should be done in naira and converted where necessary but that is not the case especially for alot of nigerians who are into small importation and legitimate business.

I know the main motive of this administration is to close up all sources of money laundering and all sorts but you do not burn down your house all in the process of hunting out a rat. One does not throw away the baby with the bath-water.

Chinom:
Most of your comments are from a very selfish and egocentric view point. You need to look at the bigger picture. Are you aware of how many millions if not billions of dollars that was wiped out of Dangote's fortune as a result of the recent crash in Naira. Such business men really understand the importance of a strong Naira. If you are truly a business man, pray for this policy to continue, endure for now and enjoy later.

Do you know that a Nigerian could buy a house in London for N20,000 in the early 70s ?.

Oga, Since when has someones personal opinion become an offense? If you run a legitimate business and your government wakes up with a policy that puts you in a very awkward and difficult position how would you feel? Which bigger picture are you talking about here anyways? Coming up with a policy that totally cripples legitimate businesses who rely solely on outsourcing almost everything without succor to those people all in the name of tracking down money launderers is a no no! I believe your opinion will be totally different when a very close family member of yours dies simply because you need to deposit @5,000 for surgery abroad and y'all have the money and more but simply cannot send it out. Make sure you dont even shed a tear because like you said: ''endure for now and enjoy later'' NONSENSE!

They will never know how you had to clean and clean the edge of the cartridge of your Donkey kong on 8bit Nintendo NES! What, it got to a point where we played for about 1 hour and had to put the console wrapped in some soft clothes in the freezer to cool down or elde, it wont load up!haha... at some point we put one cartridge in the fridge while playing another... It was crazy but fun

greenhulk:
Lol, so u seriously want to sell a PS3 for 120k, lmao. I know u said 35 cds but these are all pirated discs, which means u can't play online, no DLC and the discs would probably scratch in no time. Be realistic bro, I sold my own PS3 with 12 original discs a few months ago for 33k before getting my PS4. Not trying to spoil ur market but u have to be realistic, brand new PS3 is less than 60k, those pirated discs are less than 500 naira per one.

Like seriously? if you ain't buying as obviously you just sold yours why then are you low-balling the dudes market?? For all I care you could have sold yours for a dime but you aint got any right to claim his Discs are pirated and all that bla bla blah! without even taking a good look at the picture he posted!...grow up man!

@ OP...
I wish you speedy sales, maybe you need to work a bit more on the bundle price to bring it down so as to get more buyers interested, you can't ever get close to the original value of what u bought them as the ps3 is aged now but then again, its your property hence your prerogative. All the best.

Anybody in Abuja that needs 'ANY' Ps3 game in soft copy format should contact me... all for gratis!

Very fast and efficient delivery.
I used this service over the weekend and got my item next day in Abuja.

I will continue to recommend Taiwo as long as he maintains the standard he started with. Do not let the 'Nigerian' syndrome ever get to you... Cheers

contact?

Xbox one or xbox 360 oga?

nnamokenna:
You expect a reply to this? He doesn't even respond to texts/mails/calls anymore. Honestly, I miss the old Chinos before he had so many customers. I thought it would translate to better services but unfortunately, it has not

LOL! I feel your pain... Well, hopefully he will be able to list all lightweight items which he normally does when items ship out but nothing this time and even as people have started picking up items

@ Chinox,
Please did this light weight item make the March 16th Shipment?

C.A **********993185 USPS

Seriously? You don't have chance to play the psvita which is a mobile device and yet you want to swap for a PS3??
You lost me on this one bro.

People of Calabar/Akwa Ibom are the last people that would steal from you,tho not all,but majority of em people are good...

If it were my igbo brothers,the money would have been gone & still would call you to come pay for those documents you have in it

'

Must you tribalise everything you have to say just so you can pass across your point? For your info, if a criminally minded pastor from New york finds your wallet, its gone because its in him. So pls do not call any tribe names here after all you know very well the name of the woman who just recently returned 12 million naira right? She is Igbo, therefore you dont have a valid point, so go figure.

don't be tribalistic. Economics is usually shortened to Econs from time immemorial. And someone said it's photoshop? It's not. Here is another photo from the event. This photo was taken before the governor entered the classroom to address the students who were over excited to see their role model...

OP... You must be daft to think everybody will buy into your crap campaign. If you look at this your picture that you claim was taken before the one where he was in class at the same day and event, then you are the greatest clown of the year so far! Gosh... apart from the clothes being different, even the cap on both pics are totally different...

Therefore, I choose not to take you serious.

On Nov 12, 2014 I posted this in the BMW Forum on Nairaland http://www.autoevolution.com/news/bmw-drops-castrol-for-shell-as-official-oil-supplier-88737.html.

When a manufacturer such as BMW decides to dump a long term partner (of over 40 years) for a new one, sit up and take note!

Also, ask why!!

Before I would have said get Mobil 1, now I would say if you can lay your hands on Pennzoil Ultra Platinum with PurePlus Technology OR Shell Helix Ultra with PurePlus Technology if you want not just best, but the very best!

You can read more here: http://www.shell.com/global/products-services/on-the-road/oils-lubricants/cars/shell-helix-pureplus.html and here http://www.pennzoil.com/technology-of-clean/why-pennzoil-motor-oil/

Ferrari and BMW are taking the lead with the switch, I think you should because I am

Hi Idara, I totally agree with you on the Pennzoil Natural Gas synthetic blends of oil. I have been using Mobil 1 full synthtic but after heavy researching, i hv decided to go with The pennzoil but my problem is where do i get the Ultra Platinum in 5 Qtz gallons? Do you have an idea, if i don't, I would end up with the Pennzoil Platinum 5W30 which is a superb oil too.

Sorry forgot to update this.. Item has long been sold.. Thanks

MissMeiya:
Please read the bolded.



Go somewhere.

Sabi sabi... I read the bolded, and even though he gave credit to Brandon, his work should be a bit modified and not copying him verbatim yet having the mind to WATERMARK his pictures... even the original guy didnt do such..... Nigerians are very good are copying without innovating.

And remember he will definitely sometime visit Nigeria/lagos

irohadis:
@chuckdee, thanks for your candid feedback. First I must state that we have not delivered since a month now. Though NAHCO has opened, there is no agent that can claim they have been able to get out a cargo as at yesterday. Before the strike, we had Ebola related delays from airlines and even the cargo that was clearing Customs got held back because we had to inspect it due to parts of it that appeared tampered. Before we finished the process, NAHCO struck. So many things went wrong at the same time.

Now we had other problems too. You remember how efficient we were in the early days. Thanks. With scale comes a new set of problems. I did not manage it well. I paid others a lot of money to do it for me. Now I am taking control and doing the leading. I find I am the best person to execute my vision. That efficiency you refer to is nearly getting achieved. I changed a lot of things to better use the system we built. You will notice the difference I promise. I am taking personal charge.

Thank you for your insight.. I believe if you able to apply the stipulated changes above, things will definitely get back on track. With growth comes complicated responsibilities and changes are surely inevitable. I wish you all the best of luck.

irohadis:
Taking off now and landing in NJ in 2 hours for some quality assurance inspection. I really wish for more constructive advice and recommendations to consider for improving Shippyme further.

@ irohadis,

You asked for constructive advice and recommendations, how about working on the very basics of a shipping services (with very much more emphasis on shippyme branch of your business) which is TIMELY DELIVERY!

Honestly, I am not here to thru tantrums or hate, I have been following this thread from inception and had not said a word because some of us like to observe and observe b4 commenting. The delivery time of packages from shippyme has drastically dropped! Like post no. 297 rightly said.. it appears your company is the only one which leaves items uncleared or rather it takes 2 weeks plus for goods which have landed Nigeria to be cleared. Take for a practical example my prio email on this page to you, my items status had been updated as clearing customs very close to 10 days before the closure of NAHCO warehouse, do you honestly think that if your agents were up and doing those goods wouldn't have cleared customs b4 the closure??

You have moved in the right direction of weeding out the bad staff in your employ, upgraded to decent CS that answers the phones always with some politeness, I implore you to go ahead and work on the core functions of your business which is fast delivery... my last item which was a perfum came in after 2 months, infact very close to 3 months simply because it had to come with 'special shipment' That is not acceptable, I had shipped engine oil, lubricants, perfumes with shippy me b4 and they all arrived in less than a month.

I commend you for being one of the pioneers in automated freight forwarding services, you really made things easy and I used to admire you and I always said you were a genius for cooking up this service, hell you would personally call my Nigerian number to work out rates just to make sure it goes down well with me back in the very infant days of circuit atlantic!.. I was always happy doing business with you, but times have passed, the shopping business has exponentially grown because all a Nigerian needs now is just his banks ATM card and he could easily buy from any website... Paypal has come to stay in Nigerian and so you really have to accomodate the changes and match other people who have come to explore this market.
I believe like you responded to somebody down the line that shippyme is still very much in business, very true, i for one still believe but for how long can I continue to waddle in the game of late deliveries, There has been a lot of aggrieved customers of recent especially on this thread, I implore you to find a way to amicably settle all grudges, especially old clients and people who are members of this forum.

God bless us all and the best of the Yuletide season to everyone.

irohadis:
If you login to your user account, you will see the status is still "clearing customs." If you got any message other than that, it must be in error. Please forward the email to procurement@circuitatlantic.com and I will have the IT team debug it. Meanwhile you should get your package next week. As expected the backlog is causing delays in clearing. The worst part is this is Christmas. I feel for businesses but this is our Nigeria.

OK..... I will Keep my fingers crossed & praying I get items next week.

@irohadis;

Please what is the actual status/situation of this shipment: S1410208614

I got a 'CLEARING CUSTOMS' update since the 13th of November, yet the status never changed to 'cleared customs' until 21st November that the warehouse shutdown commenced.

Now I received 2 emails in the wee hours of today on this same order, the first one saying: 'DEPARTED' and i nearly had a fit because i was sure the items were already in Nigeria from the initial email update i got, but then an hour later another email bearing 'CLEARING CUSTOMS'

Now does it mean the goods never got cleared even though it had been in Nigeria one week plus before the closure? did the goods just leave the US? is the goods still yet to be cleared?? If so, what is the ETA on that?

Thank you.
