StRichard:
I have 3 items dispatched on 21/11/2018, I have not seen them till today.

Is it a small item? Like from China packet?
Please check the post office o, e fit be say e don arrive and you no no.

kripen:
Pls what I don't really understand is that after paying custom duty must they(nipost) still collect money from you. Do they collect money base on the amount one bought an item or the size/weight of the item.

Pls ur candid response and suggestion.

Thanks

Now it is not everything that you buy that you'll have issues with customs. I've bought so many things and the highest the post office have charged me is N700 and it was because the item was heavy. On few occasions, N500, while majority of the time, N200. There was one time I paid N100...it was an earpiece. In some places like Oau campus, it's usually N500 flat (last I checked).
I don't know about customs here.

Some people that bought phones have talked about customs slamming them to pay 4k, 9k, 2,5, etc., while others have been lucky and paid just N500.


***Now to your question...let's say there's custom charge, and it's 2k for instance, that's what you'll be paying because na for that same post office you go pay am. You won't pay something different.
In my location, one of the post office staff said they charge based on weight. I've not bought something of 50k, so I can't say.

kripen:
I mean some people here in nairaland. My issue is that when anything happens you are on your own. Them not having an office in Nigeria is a draw back to many people people who would have petronise them.

Nothing bad usually happens. That's why you need to check ratings, read the comments of other people, and also read the comments of Nigerians (there's usually a comment section for fellow Nigerians that have bought the item.
It's also important to message the seller privately (there's a section for that), and ask him very important questions.

I've bought many things there. Infact I have something I bought since 27th of November that's yet to arrive. I no dey fear because if the item doesn't come, my money will be refunded.

Anyone with an item shipped on the 10th of December here?
Abi dem put my phone for the plane wey carry Emiliano Sala ni?

Godvilla:
15 to 60 days but it's very risky and not advisable to use free shipping method. A Lil 1k won't tear ur pocket to use registered air mail or Aliexpress standard shipping. I prefer the former though.

It all depends on the item you know...
There're items of 10k and above that can come with free shipping. It'll be somehow telling a buyer to opt for the option where they have to pay a shipping fee.
Sometimes the only option to pay for shipping might be DHL and FedEx.

odinga1of:
My mum say na house rent money she take de buy me phone so.........£400 from Italy.

Try again.

What's the assurance level of finding missing phones?

Don't miss this chance of making money

youngelder:
I'm asking for the customs charge to be paid.... i read somewhere where someone complained that he was charged between 70 - 80k for an item worth about $400

i don't know.
Please contact that *noobody" above to assist you.

Abrahamdgreat:
??

I heard one would have to take it back to that post office that it was collected from.
I heard that from there, one would know what to do.

Op, you didnt provide a link to this post.

Birniwa:
Sorry that was actually an unexpected error. Please text ALLOW to that number again, you'll deactivate the service. It meant that your line was not active on the service before.

I'm sorry for the inconvenience.

Let me get you clearly, should we text ''Allow'' or text ''stop''?
I texted ''allow'' and i got ''You have been removed from full DND''.
I'm confused here.

Has INEC starting notifying successful applicants for their AD-HOC staff for the next elections? Anybody with useful information or update should please share.

Read up and see.

youngelder:
Say between 30- 50 Dollars?

Check the rating, read comments, message the seller privately.

Compare and contrast.

kripen:
Thanks for your response. my fear as a new buyer is that I am afraid of complaint I am getting from some ppl and the boot is desert boot(military boot) and hope it will not be seized by customs.

when you mean "complaints from some people," do you mean some people there on Ali Express?
What is the rating of the product?
Focus on products that are 4.7 or 4.8 upwards.

You can also send a private message to the seller and ask some questions.

youngelder:
What of for a quadcopter (drone)?

I dont know.
How much is it?

kripen:
Pls, I want you to help out, I want to buy an item in Aliexpress. Can you assist? If I am buying a boot(shoes) do I need to pay again after paying shipping fee.

If there is anyone that can help me order the boot I will appreciate and pay the person.

After paying for the boot and paying for the shipping fee, the next place you'll pay will be at the post office.
N200 or N500 depending on location

Hello Seun...
I'm sure you'll be wondering why I had to send this message here. I have to apologize because I know it's absurd kind of. It seems there's no direct place to get the nairaland technicians here that's why.

I have an account with the name "hausa" that I've been using for sometime, but I discovered I can't help it because whenever I log in, I see lots and lots of mentions that aren't directed to me. This became frustrating that I had to be using this current moniker. Although I've been using this for quite some time, I want to return to the old moniker "hausa".

Kindly help me fix this problem... thanks.
Nairaland is the best.

henry007:
Bought it on Jumia.

OK

henry007:
So sad.

Aliexpress is and has always been for people with the patience of 10 people combined.

I lost that virtue. The last time i shopped on Aliexpress was in 2016.

How did you get the Pocophone?

Maxcoded:
That's over two months shipping; damn.

All the same, congratulations

Cheap item, China Post Ordinary Packet plus shipping method.
Not free though.

hello Mandy...
Are you in Sokoto?

Maxcoded:
Bros, I totally agree with the seller.

I'm a seller too on fiverr.com and I know how critical a single dispute can damage your credibility. You are actually a very nice person; somebody like GrandMufti won't think twice before opening the dispute ... NO OFFENSE O

Please just go with what I suggested so you can favor the seller a little... If you don't know how to go about the PayPal ish, I can create time and post the steps here on this thread

Hello Maxcoded...
The package eventually came. I got a call today to come collect it at the post office. It was an 11/11 purchase.
There was no need to do the PayPal stuff in the end.

Thanks for your help...
I also thank everyone that contributed at the time.

henry007:
Wow. That's really sad.

Unfortunately it was after I made the purchase that I joined here.
Probably would've bought it at a cheaper exchange rate if I'd come earlier.

Maxcoded:
Sorry bro

Tried sending out the steps yesterday, but the antispam bot banned me for 24hrs; maybe some flagged keywords in the write up.

You can message me on WhatsApp, I will forward it to you
