Satellite TV TechnologyRe: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by Icolosis(m): 10:38pm On Jun 09, 2024
Good evening guys.

I need a battery and inverter to just power my laptop(macbook pro with 45watts charger) and phone, nothing more.
The power here is pretty decent just that I need backup power to be able to keep working on my laptop during Nepa downtime and on the days they move mad for example this recent strike.

what battery and inverter specifications would serve well for my needs.
Also can I go for a lead-acid deep cycle battery since I don't have much power needs.

Just wait a while for it to be updated to Unsuccessful delivery then you can collect it at your post office. I guess it's taking this extra time because of your destination.

Also thanks for the access bank info, I'll go and get the card. My Poco X3 pro 8/256 GB I was supposed to get for 125k, I paid 145k through barter but e no pain me too much because some weeks after person dash me 20k grin grin.
It was a good deal overall because it's 150k and above in Nigeria.
Same with mine I paid 140k for poco x3 pro 8/256GB at $245. Then just few days later I read about Access card on this platform. The thing pain me die. Something I should have paid 115k with access, I paid 140k with barter huh huh

When I got the phone, I felt like asking the seller to refund me so that I'll refund him back grin grin grin

Nothing new, still departed country of origin

ajabani4allah:
Tracking of this order showed "Departed country of origin" the next thing I saw about after two days is "Out for delivery"
Has anyone experience such scenario and has his order delivered?
Technology MarketRe: This Thread Is Only For Aliexpress Shopper by Icolosis(m): 9:02am On Jan 31, 2022
I opened dispute for a parcel that has tracking status "Failed delivery attempt" since December 24th 2021 and AliExpress ruled it invalid. I've gone to post office countless times and they said they don't have it.

I searched through their records and even mail bags but did not find it.

I even got my phone this January and that one was no where to be found.

How can I appeal this?

Does barter still work? Look at what I'm getting here. Exchange rate isn't shown
Yes it still works. They don't show the exchange rate again since CBN - Abokifx wahala. You need to contact customer support if you want to know the rate or just fund blindly.

I bet it's something around ₦580

Hello,

Please who has experience on shopping phones on Aliexpress? Are the phones genuine that is OEM? Can anyone point me to a trusted seller? Much appreciated.
You'll find fake and original phones on AliExpress. If the price is too good to be true then it isn't.

For example Mi 11 Ultra is 450 to 500k but the last product is advertised as 45k. No be juju be that grin

Just that and AliExpress Standard Shipping as far as I know

That's not Speedaf. Actually, Cainaio will hand it over to Speedaf. They're two different companies.
Yeah I know. The point is, if you chose that shipping method you'll get it by speedaf

Should I fill in my address instead of Post office address that has been on My AliExpress account for Years, since it seems speedaf is the one handling most deliveries irrespective of Shipping option chosen...
You know, so that it can be delivered to my House directly instead of going to Pickup @ PO


Something Surprised recently, I bought some very small items from AE, chose free shipping, the cheapest of all options (even the Highest or Premium option was less than $3)
It said it would be delivered around March, so I ordered and commot mind, only to check my mail today that item is at post office... That's about 14 days or Thereabout it took, and it was delivered by speedaf too

Does speedaf handle all AE Shipping and deliveries now?
Use your house address, you do not live at the post office grin grin

Nope, speedaf does not handle all AE shipping and deliveries. Delivery method still choke, speedaf is just one of AliExpress standard shipping method

When you say access bank card must it be master card or visa cause I want to order a phone around 105k and I have a visa card.
Any access bank debit card for a regular account.

Also have it at the back of your mind that you'll be charged higher the naira amount you see on aliexpress.

Forget the price in Naira, multiply the amount in dollars by your banks exchange rate

Please can soemone direct me on how to shop on Aliexpress from Lagos Nigeria.. Thanks
Download the app and sign up.

Search and find the product you want and add it to cart.

Go to your cart, select the product, chose your desired variant if applicable and desired shipping method (I advise AliExpress standard shipping but if you know what you're doing you can chose anyone you prefer) and checkout.

Enter your address, you will have to lookup your postal/zip code on Google.

Enter card details and select pay now.

Then relax and wait for your order

So, I think my items have arrived from aliexpress but I'm still very very confused. I got a message this morning from AFRIKASTKNG saying 'Your waybill NO.NG1035....... Delivers today....' Now, the thing is, I ordered two items which was sent via aliexpress standard shipping and was later upgraded to combined delivery. These items have thesame tracking number. First, how will I know which item they are talking about?

Secondly, I checked my tracking details and the last update for the two items is 'arrived at delivery sorting center' yet it doesn't seem to have arrived in Port Harcourt which is my destination. What to do?

I honestly don't know how to post a picture on nairaland. Would've done so. This is my first time of shopping from aliexpress.
Combined delivery means the two or more packages have been put into one bigger package and is now being delivered as one. So you'll be getting the two items at the same time.

Track with [url]speedaf.com/ng-en[/url] to the see the up to date movement od your package

AliExpress told the seller to refund me sharply, the seller later refund me. Two weeks after the refund I got a call from postal service that I have a parcel in their office.

Please, if i want to buy the same item from a store, is there a way to make the seller charge me a single fee for all of them.

Like, a single fee for 4 the same watch.
You mean like for a watch of $5, the seller will charge you same $5 total for 4 pieces of the same watch?

So I ordered multiple small packets for my babe, about 30.


All were given the NG...E tracking number, I was thinking they'd combine some and upgrade it to NG...R only for them to upgrade them to RB...SG.

E dey pain me like this.

Anybody got a RB...SG order recently? How long did it take? Cos I already made mouth to her that it'll arrive within 2 weeks.
Ah upgrade NG...E packages to Singpost??
Wahala ooo.

Me that anytime I want to order and I know it'll get NG...E tracking I usually just buy something else I might not even need just so they'll be upgraded to NG...R

This new development is worrisome oo

Please, how does one get to use the Speedaff option... Is it through Aliexpress Standard Shipping?
Yes AliExpress Standard Shipping is mostly Speedaf especially for small items, but it can be Singpost too especially for big and expensive items and for sellers in Hongkong.

Cainio is also Speedaf except Cainio for special goods

Thanks bro, that was exactly what I was worried about, none of the trackers are picking it up except Ninja and nothing has happened for two weeks.
I paid $20 for AESS but the seller uploaded a different tracking number to AliExpress and then privately sent me this one claiming system error ( which is funny cause I've had instances where tracking numbers were changed, why isn't this one being charged?)
Feels like I'm being scammed but the seller has thousands of followers and a good rating. Hm.
Wow, $20 for AESS? That's very expensive.
What are you shipping?

So the tracking number on the Order details and the one the seller sent you are different?

Good morning house, has anyone here ever had an item shipped with FLYT EXPRESS?
How was your experience with it please?
I've never heard of it before self, but I think Speedaf is the only courier that handles delivery of items from China all the way to the final reciepient.

All others are just SingPost wey disguise grin grin

They will hand it over to Nipost when it get's to Nigeria.
Even if it moves from China to Nigeria in one day, It'll enter the hands of Nipost that will take forever to deliver it to you.

I may be wrong though

Icolosis how's the POCO X3 Pro battery life?
I have not started using the phone. I want to flash Indonesia ROM to get rid of google apps(Phone, contacts and calender)
To do that I have to unlock bootloader and to unlock bootloader I have to wait 168 hours(7 days)

Flashing ROMs will clear all your data so I don't want to start using the phone now, then have to clear all data and start over again after one week.

I'll know if the battery lasts from Saturday
