Can someone please advise me if this design is good.

radautoworks:
I found the request rude and nitigriti's response appropriate.

Don't feel like a God. People do this a lot. Even on Fiverr, people make such requests and it gets granted.

People make much more daring requests like having their company name registered in the United States.

If I had known this is the way you would react, I wouldn't bother. I didn't go straight to sending you a private message so it doesn't seem like I have an ulterior motive.

Just to receive a phone from e-commerce website and ship to Nigeria is rude?

Please swerve.

For the respondent asking why I didn't consider using DHL, some of these businesses don't ship to Nigeria. Ask anybody that buy from eBay and Amazon, they have people that receive their items and ship them to Nigeria. Even the ShopToMyDoor that someone recommended, they have their agents in the States.

The mistake I made was getting in touch with the wrong person and quoting her on the wrong thread (my intention was never to post on Uber thread, it happened that this thread is where she comments most so I just quoted her last comment when I searched).

Let's die this. I never wanted to respond any further but someone is already feeling like a demi-god

nitigriti:
Let me help Aunty RadAutoWorks reply.

This is not right for several reasons.

For one, you are soliciting someone who you don't know personally and who doesn't know you personally too to help you ship a product from the US to Nigeria. It's a security risk no one - including yourself - will take on behalf of someone not known to them.

There are shipping services out there you can use — UPS, DHL, ShoptoMyDoor etc. They will help you get your product down to Nigeria from Amazon even faster than @RadAutoWorks will do.

Lastly, I'm not insinuating anything. Please don't be offended.

When did you become the PA or PR manager to the quoted person?

I wonder why some of you lack dignity. Someone you are responding on her behalf is right on this thread and can choose to respond or ignore the request completely.

Mister risk analyzer, you seem to know much about international shipping than you know Lagos roads.

Anyway, I have got to find an alternative. You were quick to list the risks but never mentioned the dozens of businesses transpiring between nairaland members even when they have never met each other.

FYI, I had one of my cars paid for in the United States and shipped to Nigeria through a member I met here without knowing him before then.

No option to suggest maybe a verification or something, just an outright condemnation and 1001 reasons why such should never happen.

Please, grow up and stop asslicking. It will help you better

radautoworks:
Just saw this. Yes, just show them this post.

Ma'am, I need your assistance to ship a phone from the United States to Nigeria. I will order the phone on eBay/Amazon and have it sent to your address so you can help me send it down to Nigeria.

All costs will be covered by me. Please, let me know if you can help.

Your uncle is a yahoo mañ?
Just a question nio

Hahaha, why did you ask?

Seriously, I know nairaland people. If I should mention the profession of the uncle and more details about his lifestyle, people here will leave the gunshot story to discuss and attack the profession

Ife, osun state, 2015.

After the students riot that day, I, Igharo, his girlfriend and my girlfriend went to the wrecked female hostel to pack some of their stuffs that hadn't been looted. We were upstairs in the female hostel,
Na so we just heard "gbawww"
it was from a Cut to size double barrel, so loud. I had seen it on one of the Vikings boys in the afternoon when they were rioting and destroying.

And Kelvin don tell me sey make I no go out that day that cultists boys could use this opportunity to count score.

Back to us at the female hostel,
Me and my guy took off, the girls also ran, we got downstairs and hid behind a spoilt geepee water tank. Na so the guys just point torch light at the tank wey we dey, na so our shadow betray us..

Then they were shouting and running towards us "who goes there" "who be" blah blah blah, the girls just stood there screaming and crying, me and igharo took off, we ran round the hostel as they were pursuing us, igharo scaled the fence and landed into a light swamp he almost drowned, Na God. I tried scaling the fence but i was too heavy to lift my self even in the "Adrenaline rush induced" moment, I ran to the other side and saw a metal gate that had been closed for years, luckily it had some rails i could climb, like James Bond, as i was about to step on the rails to scale the gate na another "gbawww" it was deafening, I guess the guy pointed the gun in the wrong direction even when he was already close to me Or God just didn't want me to die like that, cos the shrapnel alone from the gun could hurt me bad, but God didn't allow.

Na so i just scale the fence m, dey run enter deep forest, I guess the guy got tired and stopped running after me.

This one is beyond close range to a gun shot, it's close range to death

THE BULLET HIT AND BOUNCED BACK. GOD NO GO SHAME US. THE MARK STIILL DEY SHAA

Would you mind writing a detailed story if your statement is true?

So, I want to share an experience of my closest encounter with men of the underworld.

This incident happened in 2009, the year I wrote my senior WAEC.

I was posted to work with an uncle immediately after my secondary school. For the protection of the interest group in this story and some details in it, I will not mention the name of the profession of this uncle but I will henceforth refer to him as uncle Jay.

Uncle Jay is not related to me by blood but I was to work for him for just one year on an official assignment.

One thing about uncle Jay is that he likes girls a lot. There are about 15 to 20 girls living with us in the same house. The girls live with uncle in the story building while I live with my co-workers in the boys quarters.

Uncle Jay spends a lot of money on these girls just to make them happy. He books flights for them to and fro Lagos, pay their school fees and buy things for their families, just to keep them hostage in his house, while enjoying them turn by turn. I'm sure uncle Jay has a register for sleeping with these girls.

Well, it happened that one of the girls just returned from Lagos and instead of using public transport, she called uncle Jay to come pick her.

Uncle left home around 6 pm with one of the girls. They were not supposed to spend more than one hour on that trip. We waited around 8pm, uncle was not back. We called his number but it wasn't going through, called the girl that left with him, the number was switched off, called the girl that he went to pick, and she said that uncle has not gotten to the airport.

That's when we knew that there was a problem. Two of the guys working with me went out with a motorcycle to look for the missing uncle with his girl. You can imagine using motorcycle to look for people that went out with a car.

Uncle Jay was driving a 2008 Toyota corolla. You know what it means to be driving a 2008 corolla in 2009? That's an executive ride then.

When my colleagues returned with no success of sighting uncle anywhere close to where their bike could take them, we had to go to bed and hope to embark on a more thorough search or at least, report to the police in the morning.

In the morning the following day, around 5 am, uncles car horn honked and I, being the youngest in rank among my colleagues have the responsibility of opening the gate for uncle. In fact, my room is next to the entrance gate.

Due to the incident of the last night, one of the girls who was claimed to be uncle's relative and should be in her 30's came down to join me open the gate.

Immediately we opened the gate, the next thing we heard was "DON'T MOVE". That's when I knew it was time to go answer to my maker for the few sins that I have committed on earth (I was a little innocent then anyway )

So, I stood still with the Aunty that came down to open the gate with me. Immediately, the kidnappers-turned-armed-robbers tried to move in to the compound, our two dogs (two black ekukes) started barking and charged at the robbers.

Out of fear, one of the robbers shot twice in the air and that was me standing still, staring at the man shooting in the air. The bullet fire just rested on my body and out of fear, I took to my hills.

I went upstairs where uncle lives and locked the entrance door. It happened that the kidnappers took uncle hostage all through the night together with the girl. Their initial intention was to demand for ransom but somehow they changed their minds and decided to come home to rob uncle and free him.

So, they returned that morning with uncle. Uncle Jay had to call me to come and open the door for them so they can take what they want and go.

I fearfully came down and opened the door and ran back to one of the girl's rooms to hide. They went to uncle's room, took his golds, all the money they saw, his laptops, phones, and all valuables they could see.

And then they left with uncle's car. The closest we got with recovering the car was when scammers called several times that they have found the car, that uncle should pay a certain amount of money to get it back.

It's important to note that we didn't set eyes on any of the dogs for complete two days after the gunshot (ekukes self )

That is how I would have lost my life as a teenager, people.

Have you had a close range with gunshots? Let's hear your experience

Seersam:
Thanks bro, so how can I get access to it?

I have migrated to another website but I can upload the article in Google docs for you to access

[quote author=Kreamie post=85819745][/quote]Bro, I agree with you that he truly is a patient scammer. Phone number is 08021834083

This scammer has been waiting patiently on my inbox since February 23.

First, he wanted to buy my payoneer and then he agreed he would buy the PayPal. Funny enough, he does his research very well.

I refused to tell him the amount that I have. He went ahead to search on nairaland to get the amount that I posted, and then sent that to me.

Sadly, I am old in the game to be scammed by one cunt like this. When he offered 340/$ my eyes popped. I then did my search and was laughing when reading the sad stories.

But, how can one person succeed in scamming many people with the same phone number on the same forum

If this guy uses his time to do legit business, he will make money for pet sake

Guys, I need a little advice please. I have a fiverr gig currently on page 9 of recommended. it has 6 reviews and was created for ATS resume. In January, I converted it to eBook writing but the URL remains ATS resume. Can the URL turn off potential buyers?
I can add the link if you want me to?

It doesn't. Mine has been the way I created it since 2016 even after I have made several changes to the gig title.

The Url will remain like that. It doesn't affect anything

Xbee007:
When you're starting out newly, you do need to buy reviews. One or two is okay. One shouldn't over do it till it becomes obvious.

Buyer request will do you more good than reviews. 1, 2, or 3 reviews don't guarantee sales. I do create new gigs and use my existing buyers through custom offer (since I have already known them and what to expect) to get reviews on those gigs but they still don't rank even after getting 2-3 reviews.

Can 1 to 3 reviews push down a gig with 300 reviews? Even if a gig with 300 reviews has 4.7 ratings, it is still desirable to buyers than a gig with 5.0 rating with just 3 reviews and so is the ranking.

Advice to new sellers is to focus on getting the job through buyers request. Ability to know how to use buyers request is a skill on its own.

I remember getting all my sales on Fiverr from buyers request for months if not years of being on the platform.

It took time before my gigs started ranking on the first page and so is even Google ranking. The older the wine, the sweeter.

OneNaijaMan:
Usually, when sales plummet, the most important people will be your return buyers, that;s why you need to build good relationships and ALWAYS underpromise and Over deliver. It makes people happy to receive their order a day early or days early.

Sometimes you get a false sense of good ranking when you are receiving many orders from repeat clients and you forget to optimise your gigs for the algorithm. Always try and tweak your gig regularly.

Transcription and Wordpress are separate worlds apart. Try and keep your gigs related.

Lastly, I will say, sometimes the levels do not matter in getting alot of sales. Fiverr goes through gig deliveries and also the private feedback they receive from clients and they sometimes boost some gigs. You might see something like - "Rising Talent". That usually helps, so make sure you go back to my first advise, Over deliver!

The only difference in my level 2 and TRS is getting money within 1 week. The orders income is a bit similar, maybe a bit high on TRS because I raised my prices but almost the same amount of orders.

I know demoted sellers that still have so much in their queue. They get demoted because their gigs get late, but people still flood their gig.

I decided to check on this thread after a while. I started off on Fiverr in 2016 by just reading this thread and I must admit that it is the best decision of my life.

I have maintained level 2 for more than 180 days, have few dollars (less than $1000) to meet the requirements of becoming a top rated seller, until some spammers invaded Fiverr, sending random messages of tools that can help me render my service.

It got to a point I started cursing them out of anger (Fiverr later warned me).

Due to the fact that Fiverr automatically blocks their messages and mark it as spam, I do not get to see them or could not reply them because the users have been deactivated.

Fiverr will write that it will not affect my response rate but that's not true as my response rate keeps dropping even as I respond quickly to other legit messages as they come (I have one hour response time).

Right now, I have been demoted to level 1 and the response rate isn't improving at all rather it keeps decreasing.

If it doesn't increase, I am getting demoted again next month for offense I didn't commit. My average rating is 5.0 from seller dashboard and 4.8 from buyer view.

I don't know if I should contact Fiverr support with this issue.

Please, do you think they can help?

I am always afraid to contact those guys because in some cases, they will be looking for what did not lose

famousguy01:
How can I get it from the site, though I find some on aliexpress but I’m not very comfortable with the feedbacks

Bro, I believe the link you provided above to be the same with this one

https://www.ebay.com/itm/Auto-Angle-90-O2-Oxygen-Sensor-Extender-Spacer-for-Decat-Hydrogen-Brass-New/202280854165?epid=5017265579&hash=item2f18e0e295:g:fpQAAOSwXBVavFiL

Because the link you provided says that the item does not ship to Nigeria

Also, can one get it in Nigeria without having to wait for over one month for it to arrive

Everything in the car is still in tact. Now, I will sell it for 1.1 million. Even if the person is using the car for Uber. In less than a year, the person cannot recoup the cost of purchase in selling the car for 1.1 million. Op is just waiting for miracle that will never happen

1. Eliminating cockroaches from your home.

Scientists have proven that cockroach can survive for one month without food but can only survive one week without water

https://www.pestworld.org/news-hub/pest-articles/fascinating-cockroach-facts/

I tried this experiment and it worked for me.

How to naturally eliminate cockroach from your home:

1. Stop storing water in the toilet/bathroom and if you must store water in the bucket, always cover it.

2. Cover your WC always

3. Don't put water in the kitchen basin or plates

The objective is to ensure there's no open water where cockroaches can access.

I tried this and all the cockroaches ran away from my house.

Allowing them access to water enables them breed more
