beqs101: Thanks to Mr Ezeh ‎​foя opening this thread and to everyone who has contributed cuz,it has really helped me and everyone venturing into importation biz. Plz I wanna ask,has anyone shopped at everbuying.com? If yes, how was the experience?

Thanks

have not used that, I only use escrow sites
my choice though

4. Tell the seller your desired shipping method, he'd adjust the price.
Note, hk, sw and cn posts are free but some sellers collect money to use them. If you want to buy something and the seller wants to collect money, leave it and search for other stores. You'd see the ones with free shipping.
5. You pay the seller for all the services you need. AliExpress is just a third party that holds the transaction money until the buyer confirms receipt of the goods or services.

Hope this helps

bizmania:
4. The shipping placed on aliexpress are too expensive! I want to try china air express or hk post! So, will aliexpress allow me pay product fee alone? Cos I can see that they have already added up evrything together!

5. Is it d seller that will help me ship 2ru hk post or it's aliexpress that I'll do that? And pls how much is d price/ per kg (or do they have a fixed shipping price) and is it d seller I will pay for this hk post transaction or is it d shipping company or aliexpress?.... Thanks in anticipation! And pls! Can UBA Afrikard be used? I know d questions are numerous but pls bear with me! Tnks

bizmania:
1. Must I register with aliexpress to start?
2. It's a must that I will pay directly to aliexpress due to the escrow stuff abi?
3.if I negotiate with d seller, how will I inform aliexpress that d seller has reduced d price for me! Cos I found out that d goods have a fixed price on them already!

1. You must register
2. Yeah, its necessary cos if you pay outside, you stand a risk of losing your money.
The escrow is actually used to deposit the money into your alibaba account until you have received your goods in good condition, that's when they'd release it to the seller
3. After negotiations, place your order and tell the seller to adjust the price. Don't pay until he adjusts to your agreed price

@bizmania,wanna attend to your long questions one after the other

Annie09: Hello pple, pls i want to know if it is possible to buy from different stores in aliexpress and still have the goods shipped in one package. Thanks in anticipation

yeah, it's possible but you have to chat with your sellers first

okumbe:

what do u mean by when the network has no issue? hope the zip postal code is the general nigerian one (234)

network can be funny some times you know.
And if it is, it can disrupt your payment. You know when things like that happens, alibaba tends to suspect your account.
As for the post code, I'll post the links. Brb

ib_concepts: hi every1 here...pls can any1 gve me a store on Alibaba/express I cud get flat boat shoes for females...I await your response...thanks

Don't be deceived bro, I've been using gtb naira Mastercard for years now and trust me, I've never had any token. And all my transactions are quickly done with ease

franxis:

One thing you must do first before going ahead with ur card to purchase anythin online is to request for a token device(used to generate numbers for most online transcations), internet banking service all from your bank, when u have them ready register ur card thru ur internet banking portal if its a mastercard register for mastercard secure code and if its a visa.. Verified by visa.. If u ignore this process and o ahead to buy things online u run the risk of losin ur money

britnex: Pls i wanna start dis biz pls hw do i get a 1st bank mastercard dat i can use for d purchase again how do I make my payment to them n wats tracking all aboutdas how do i track. Does it need a bigger software?

go to the bank and tell them what you want, I've posted how to purchase up there.
As for tracking, you don't need any software. Just follow the link above and track your order.
Note; you can even use a java phone for it
