Funny, but your website is showing not available. However, It's no longer a secret, Nigerians can now shop on ebay and Amazon from their homes and even pay in Naira. However, it is easier to shop on Amazon than on ebay and I only shop on the ebay when I have some Paypal funds.

Now why would someone buy this for 30k when it is not working?

Well I've not yet tried the option of withdrawing directly to my US bank account. I noticed that Paypal said they transaction would not be successful if the name in the bank account does not match the name in your Paypal account. So you just need to check out two things. Do the names in your paypal and bank account match? Secondly, did you use a VPN service to change your ip?

If you've got a million naira and want to look for the best way to make money with it passively, just go for a fixed deposit account. You should also know that not all banks in Nigeria offer the same rate on fixed deposit. For someone with up to a million naira or more, invest in high paying banks. I did a report here: http://www.nabanker.com/cgi-bin/page.pl?b=investment&bn=1&m=4
As at that date, FCMB, Stanbic and Diamond all offered double digit interest rates and for N1m, you could be making about N8000 per month and in a year, around N100,000. Not much but ok for passive investment.

Why don't you simply buy airtime from an ATM? Nowadays, bank branches are almost anywhere and wherever there is a bank, there is most likely an ATM you can use. I'm sure they would not reject your card.

We are still not getting the right answers. Who then owns 1jkobsonline if Akin Alaba has denied being the owner? Has 1kjobsonline.com gone the way of Liberty reserve. The website is no longer online and before it went offline, I had paid in N10,000 to my buyers account and it is still yet to be credited for more than 4 weeks.

The domain name belongs to Akin Alabi and the bank account belongs to Get Altitude Nig Ltd which banks with Skye bank and yet many customers had paid into their account without any proof of service provided or refunds being made. This is a serious issue.

I used Zenith bank visa card and you can use a Nigerian shipping address if you are buying books or dvds. Most of the other good stuff can only be shipped to a US address.

If you've got an Android mobile phone which supports mobile wifi hotspot like the Samsung galaxy y pro duo, you can use it to create a mobile wifi hotspot and use it on any other capable wifi device.

This is a short video on how I was able to configure one and use it on a tablet like the Kindle Fire HD:

Just subscribe to an internet plan and you'll be able to browse on your network everywhere you go with your device.

There is a lot one can do with the Kindle Fire HD tablet. As long as you have the right apps, you would find it very useful. I recently download an app that plays piano from the Amazon appstore and was able to play London Bridge on it. Nice.

Yes you can withdraw from Paypal if you have money in Paypal. Payoneer with offer you a US bank account with which you can make withdrawals from Paypal and then be able to withdraw directly from Payoneer on an ATM in Nigeria. Isn't that lovely?

@ adebajo11, if you are still having problems buying with Amazon, you can contact me and I'll sell you a gift card at the rate of N170 to a $. Just pay in naira. Otherwise, you could just buy with a Zenith bank visa prepaid card(USD). Mine works very well and comes with an sms too.

It is funny that some people are still doubting this. This is a new development and for those who have ears, let them hear. You can now use your Payoneer account to verify your US Paypal account. I've written a post on how I did this here: http://www.multidox.net/blog/7/nigeria/61.html. It is not that you'll add your Payoneer card to Paypal. No!. It is the US bank account that it comes with that you are supposed to add to Paypal.

Nice product. You should add a picture

He needs to go for divine annointing. Misfortunes like that are the work of the evil one.

I recently bought a laptop on Ebay and it has already being shipped to Nigeria. The only bad experience I had is that each time I ship a laptop or two, DHL normally delays it and I have to visit their office to show them proof of payment. I guess they are wary of Yahoo boys. To shop on ebay, you just need to make use of a US shipping address, a Paypal account and a VPN service. Checkout out my post here: http://www.makemoneynigeria.net/cgi-bin/page.pl?b=small-business&bn=4&m=1

@Ultimux, that's what Payoneer Mastercard already is. It now comes with a US bank account which you can use to verify Paypal in Nigeria. The only other thing you'd need is a US VPN service when using Paypal.

To sign up for Payoneer, you should use your normal details in Nigeria.

Most people get blocked because they keep on logging into their account by making use of a Nigeria ip address. The smart way to go about it it to make use of a VPN service.

Actually, Access bank was offering about 14% per annum as at the last time I checked and this is for funds of N1m and above on Fixed deposits.

a1solution: But why must we ship our goods to US before Nigeria. This Amazon and co are really insulting Nigerians.

Because Nigeria has lost reputation as a safe destination for shipping. Besides Amazon would probably cost you more for items they actually ship directly to Nigeria

It's probably because of a problem with your card such as no funds or bank has not activated it yet. Have you ever used the card online apart from at the Amazon store. It may also be that what you want to pay for may be exceeding what is on your card. I use Zenith bank buxd mastercard and access bank visa card and they work quite well. You can also try to see if you can buy a gift card with the card. You can try a $10 gift card

cometozizo: Hey guys , just a sharp one if I buy UBA stock today now , will I be paid dividend at the propose date for dividend payment

It depends when you buy the stock. If you buy it before the books have been closed for the year or dividends have been proposed, you won't get a share of it. Dividends are normally issued out to shareholders whose name appear in the books as at that financial year end for which they have been declared.

Sunderland draws first blood against Chelsea just before the end of first half.

profOke: Pls I have these questions: 1) Are you saying shipping to Myus costs $70 or how many shipping will $70 cater for?
2)How do you engage DHL, please I want to live the question open since you have an experience (I want every details)?

1. $70 is for having a membership/warehouse account with Myus for 1 year.
2. myus ships with dhl when you make a shipment request through your online account. You only pay for the shipping.

Warehousing account cos is fixed while shipping costs via dhl are variable depending on how many times you ship and the weight. I've shared some other details here: multidox.net/blog/3/nigeria/82.html

I guess the offer is targeted at students. But again, it is illegal to collect 2 years rent in Lagos so I don't think any sensible person would pay 2 years rent.

Hi, I am setting up a website related to the financial sector and I need article writers who are knowledgeable in areas related to investments, stocks, real estate and banking products. If you can write good unique articles up to at least 250 words, I am willing to pay at least N1 per word with the option of paying more if your writing improves.
If you are interested, all you need to do is register as a seller on 1kjobsonline.com and then tell me your username so I can offer you writing jobs. All exchanges would be made on that website thereafter.

I guess the reason why Google doesn't bother much about Nigeria is because the country already has a lot of successful adsense publishers. Perhaps they are just trying to promote their brand in countries where they seem weak.

Well, you can go into light importation business. You can start importing mobile phone accessories like faceplates, batteries, phone chargers and so on. You can even go into importation of memory cards and flash drives

Shipping rates for Myus are based on weight and size and you can try out their online shipping rate calculator before or after making your order. Getting a 1 year account(about $70) is better than a pay as you use($10) account if you are a probably going to ship more than 7 times.

Never pay any money forward or in cash if you want to buy. See and inspect the car first, take a test drive before making any payments and use using bank transfers or cheque.
