General assignment for tonight.

Abeg somebody should help me find my first post on this thread. I have tried to find it without success.

OK...

officialteemi:
i ordered frm aliexpress 2weeks ago..and is showing DEPARTED COUNTRY OF ORIGIN. bt my p.o called me this morning....lol..

Singapore post or China post?

All these Aliexpress shopping newbies sef
Giving themselves hypertension over nothing.
Anyway, I understand...
Una go learn patience by force...
After this experience, you guys will even want to order more stuffs...

As for me, my smartphone and internet means so much to me.

Bye.

A bird at hand is worth more than two in the bush.

You already got Pharmacy (a very competitive course) and you are trying to leave it for Medicine (another very highly competitive course).

See OP, there are thousands of people trying to get medicine so your chances are quite slim, in fact, the chances of everyone who applies for medicine is generally slim considering the number that applies.

It is better you go for pharmacy.
Forget about combining both, you won't cope. So don't even think in that direction again.

And one more thing, don't cling on to the idea that medicine is this or that. Whatever thing you are imagining about medicine that is making you more inclined in that direction, forget it. The Nigeria system has ruined medical practice and it is quite frustrating for doctors practicing in this country. That is why many are leaving to practice abroad.
So unless Nigerian health sector changes for good within the next 7 years or you intend practicing abroad, I wouldn't advice you to hold on tightly to medicine.

earthsync:
e be like say this op nor know wetin hilarious mean that was a straight forward reply

Welcome to Nairaland.
Three words Nairalanders use most times without knowing the meaning.

1. Epic
2. Hilarious
3. Savage.

Anything can be epic, hilarious or savage depending on which of these words come to their mind first.

JandyJ:
I live in Benin. Not surulere. The item was shipped on the 5th this month. But the tracking number shows the item got to Nigeria September.

Fake tracking number.
Contact seller ASAP.

freebuddy:
I actually thought they all use airplanes to transport the cargo............

You didn't get it...

Perge:
Save yourself the hassle and get the ever trendy XIAOMI REDMI NOTE 4! I was like you before I bought mine. I was thinking it was too old in the market, not until I got hold of this ergonomically crafted piece of tech that has proved itself to be ever reliable even with the new update.

Note 4 will still remain relevant for a long time..

There are no supermen anywhere. What we have are people who have been empowered by money, fame or talent.
Life is in phases.
Nature finally takes its course in the end and not even money can stand in its way and we all arrive at the same point one day...

This sounds too personal.
So old age is now nemisis?

Not professional at all.

iliyande:
thanks for the update, make I kuku go look for a bottle of chill zobo

Na so o..

No MB to use for that abeg, bye.

GrandMufti:
I here say dem get some financial issues. Nipost don apply to acquire dem

Nipost wey dey even struggle?

I give up!
This financial issues no go end soon

Protein0:
it was just luck If it's and item tenable as gift, get it marked as gift

OK...

iliyande:
ok,
meanwhile, the canoe that conveys my 11:11 order never arrive Lagos

Hmmm..My sources tell me that one Singapore post canoe get small problem for high sea and the thing need some repair.
I hope no be your own sha

iliyande:
advice the seller to give the item low price tag in case of those duties.

Yeah...I've used that technique before with Dhl and it worked but the item was just a tablet sha

GrandMufti:
Na so

No time biko

Protein0:
it's by the value of the item or by the quantity.
Normally, items <$500 or 500pieces should be free but this is Nigeria.

OK...thanks

Deicide:
DHL = buy any item of less than $3 ships for $80 +

If I pay that kind of money for shipping and the package doesn't arrive within 24 hours, I will open dispute!

Protein0:
I've not used EMS before but IF the item is expensive and dear, and you can afford duties (in case), risk it. Afterall people still deliberately use DHL and pay those shoddy duties.

OK...how do they calculate those duties sef or is it arbitrary?

iliyande:
never use FedEx and EMS b4 oo

Gptech:
Though I haven't used either before, you'll most likely be playing for such duties, strange to see EMS with free shipping, maybe they are leaving all the customs wahala for you.

Hmmm...OK...

KingsleyCEO:
Are you trying to say stupidity runs in their lineage? Me I am not understanding o.

Do you even know Emperor Ademusiwa of Western Nigeria?

Ahmed0336:
Why u carry dat guy matter for head like afro?

From my observation, Nwamaikpe and Ademusiwa of Western Nigeria are from the same lineage...

Does one need to pay custom duty when you use FedEx or EMS to ship an electronic device from Aliexpress?

I mean does FedEx and EMS shipping encounter all those Dhl wahala?

Iliyande, protein0, noobody, Grandmufti, gptech,

I personally will not take an Mi A1 in place of Note 4(X).
I believe the seller knows the specs of these phones before ordering Note 4.

My guess is that the seller might not even want to keep the Mi A1.
I would not even advice him to keep the MiA1 unless he likes the Android One OS and is comfortable with the 3080mah battery.

Anyway, let's wait to here what the seller wants.

noobody:
I need honest opinions here,

I ordered for a gold redmi note 4,4/64gb from et stores for a client,he unboxed today and got a MI A1 4/64gb(black)which is more expensive,
The client was honest enough to let me know,of which i gave the client two suggestions,

1)we return the phone back to china and the store sends what we originally order for.client disagreed saying the time frame would be too long,and he cant wait for another to be sent,

2)client pays back the balance for the MI A1 and i refund the store the balance,because,i put myself in the shoes of the seller as well,this must have been an honest mistake,and my consceince cant accept for the seller to take such loss,(which the client agreed to.


But i felt i was too selfish with the two options i gave the client,and wish to seek you guys opinion on the matter,so help me out here guys,thanks.

Take option 2.

Let the Client pay the balance and then you refund the seller. The seller will be very grateful.

Sebastine1994:
my elder brother was released from prison last week. few of us went to received him at port Harcourt prison. he is emaciated. although I was just a boy when he was incarcerated. he sent me to school while he was behind bars.
please what advice do you have for a jailbird. he is now 47 years old. we don't have a family, they abandoned him. what business should he go into. should he go back to school or become a pastor.
mind you he has cash.

Thank God for his life.

But how did he manage to send you to school while behind bars? I am honestly curious.
