As the guy above has said, get the court involved. Also, make sure you have records of your grade and visual evidence of studentship cos emotions don't win in court.

Technology Market / Re: This Thread Is Only For Aliexpress Shopper by holyboss1: 11:44pm On Jul 05, 2020
mctfopt:



Chat with the seller to actually verify that the $60 is inclusive of shipping to Nigeria, and that they can sell only ONE piece of the item. Many times the sellers are reluctant to sell just a piece even when they stated MOQ (minimum order quantity) of 1. I've bought one piece of item from Alibaba, but I had to chat with seller first and seller asked how many I was buying (seller actually has MOQ as 1) and it had to take some convincing to get seller to sell that 1 and also we negotiated shipping price before the deal was sealed. Alibaba sellers are a different specimen of sellers, most of shady ones will want you to take the conversation to WeChat or WhatsApp (you will have no evidence if deal goes south if you agree), always insist you have neither so all communication will be on the Alibaba portal, also only pay with Trade Assurance order so that you will have buyer's protection, the payment methods include:

1) Credit Card
2) TT
3) Online Bank Payment
4) Online Transfer
5) Western Union
6) Pay Later (for only US citizens suspended for now due to the world's economic downturn brought by Covid19)
7) Boleto

Note: If you pay via a method not on the list or directly
to supplier's personal account, the order will NOT be
protected by Alibaba.com Trade Assurance service.


Alibaba in my opinion is more flexible, I've gotten a seller to locally source for items not in their store and the seller was able to do that for me saving me extra cost in shipping that item from other stores as the seller consolidated the items. You just have to be patient to negotiate, get them to send you a PI (proforma invoice) take some time to source dollar (for big dollar payment you can always approach bank to dollars with the PI, bank can then wire to an account produced by Alibaba to effect the payment). I think it's fun to do all these grin

FYI: majority of sellers prefers shipping to a forwarder in China. The reason is simple, they get to get their money very fast. So get used to saying "I don't have a forwarder in China" when chatting with them about shipping and they ask, " Do you have a forwarder in China?"

This is quite informative.
Unfortunately the $60 does not include shipping.

How do you guys go about acquiring items that sell cheap, but has a high shipping fee?

The item in question costs less than $50 on Aliexpress but ships for $111 at the very least.

Does anyone know of any credible forwarder that can receive it cheaply and forward of at a reasonable price?

Hi guys, it's my first time with aliexpress.
I found a product there selling for $21 but ships for $111.

So I went on Alibaba and found the same item for $60 including shipping cost.

I am however skeptical about alibaba because I have never used it. Is the shipping/order processing similar to that of Alixpress?

Car Talk / Re: Tyre Problem by holyboss1: 11:30pm On Jun 07, 2020
ShenTeh:


Just replace the single bad tyre nah. Simple.

As for your price, jiji, konga and jumia can be used to verify any price anyone is giving to you.
BTW, Maxix is just a brand name.
I thought that changing one would have negative effect since the friction won't be at equilibrium. So it does not matter if the other three are older by 1.5yrs?
Car Talk / Tyre Problem by holyboss1: 10:55pm On Jun 07, 2020
Hello guys,

I bought a set of tyres (4) 1.5years back. One of the tyres (front) has started gives me issue and my vulcaniser recommends a change but I am not financially buoyant at the moment (I use MAXIX 215*65 R15)

Would it be reasonable to change just the one that is giving me issue or I should park the car and save up to buy another set (4).

Pls don't mind my dumb question. It's my first car, hence, first tire issue.

Also, a tyre seller told me Maxix 215*65 is now 38k :I Is this true?

Hope you all have seen the benefit of the stay at home order by the FG.

Now is the time those who had contracted the virus will start showing symptoms which would enable them to get treated.

Cases have been increasing day by day, and if not for this lock down, who knows how many people will have contracted it.


It is advisable to call NCDC or you go there yourself.

Self medication would have been what she had been on.


After the two week's lock down, then we know where we all stand and heading to.

RIP to the diseased.

Despite the lock down, you will still see some persons walking across the road, you still see some bet shops filled/ crowded with people.


I have observed that the problem is not the FG but her citizens.
While driving down today, I saw about of about 700 people gathered at Agodi Gate Ibadan. People only scamper here when soldiers are deployed to the streets. I pray this shii does not consume Nigeria - Oyo state especially.

Politics / Re: Corona Virus: Nigeria Is The Most Useless Country Ever, Nnamdi Kanu by holyboss1: 10:58am On Mar 20, 2020
Earlystar698:
The most useless country in the world where lawmakers beg a supposedly democratically elected president to address them in a time of unprecedented global pandemic. grin grin grin grin

For starters and for the benefit of those intellectually challenged Nigerians:

1) Nigeria is NOT a nation and can never be. What it is according to Chief Obafemi Awolowo, is a mere geopolitical expression created by a Scottish man and christened "Nigeria" by his English concubine, for purely British economic interest. Anybody referring to Nigeria as a nation cannot be regarded as an intelligent being.

2) Jubril Al-Sudani masquerading as Buhari cannot address the hapless British experimental Guineapigs named 'Nigerians' because Abba Kyari and the rest of the cabal are afraid that he will be unmasked during cross examination by journalists. He will be forced to stand for hours, up close and personal as other heads of state around the world have done and continue to do, to answer searching questions about Covid 19. Jubril is a Sudanese citizen, he has no interest if Corona virus kills all inhabitants of Nigeria. What Abba Kyari dictates is what he does.

Sadly Abba Kyari and his fellow handlers of the Zoo Republic will dare not hold an open press conference in the garden of their Aso Rock because that is tantamount to exposing their fake Buhari because they know the heat of the sun will inevitably melt Jubril's makeup and a combination of close proximity of TV camera lens and questions from journalist will complete the process of unraveling the Fulani fraud of the century. Let them try and see, the world is waiting.
