Collins4u1:
that you don't know how to do it properly doesn't mean I don't... I'm ranked Diamond on aliexpress, if you know what that means.
Bro,

Many people can benefit from your knowledge. If you could please teach those who don't know how to go about it.

Thanks

MetroBaba1:
Dear Op, I order from aliexpress. No exorbitant fees, no extra charges, etc. Nipost or the postal office delivers to me.
To tell you more, I receive calls from the postal office, notifying me of my goods Before delivering, due to strong relationship established.

Sometimes, I tip them off to ensure safety and handling of my goods.

Don't believe craps from people if you've not experience it.

Don't spread false information with no experience to back up your claims.

Take down this post Now
Bro, the fact that you have not experienced it does not mean that this does not happen.

I ordered a Xiaomi Redmi 5 Plus around July/August and was told to pay around 10k as custom fees when I went to collect it at the post office.

I was told that a DN has been placed on the item by customs. The reason for that, I don't know.

Maybe those who are into cargo/shipping business on nairaland can educate us on the types of item that attracts such charges but I doubt cos some of them too benefit from this as stated by the OP.

Anyone with more information on how this works can share.

You can google "dn attached to package by customs" and see some nairaland threads returned amongst the search results.

For those who buy from aliexpress regularly. Have you guys had any experience where you were asked to pay for Customs duty on an item at the post office when you go to pick up.

I ordered a Xiaomi phone recently and when I went to pick up, I was told I will have to pay 10k plus as a DN has been applied to the item by customs.

Can you guys who are experts enlighten us on how to avoid this type of charge. Could it be the shipping method etc.

Thanks

PhonesRe: Infinix Hot S3 Vs Tecno Camon CM - The Battle by koonlay101: 10:14am On Mar 15, 2018
Psoulsport:
I will go for Tenco Camon CM any time any day... The phone is dual cam with front cam 13MP, and other qualities...
Jaculze:
In the latter I stand
In TECNO Camon CM I stand.
Seems the Camon CM is having some sort of followership already.

But truth be told given the two, I will definitely go for the Hot S3. Has almost the same build as the CM but packs more features both in hardware and software.

Compare a 20mp camera to 13, Snapdragon to Mediatek processor, 3GB/4GB RAM to 2GB, 32/64GB ROM to 16GB, 4000mah battery to 3000.

I forgot to mention whooping Android 8 Oreo to 7.0 Nougat.

Common! What are we not saying!

I personally just ordered a Camon CM but I bet if the Hot S3 is already in the Nigerian market, I will cancel the order this instant and order for the Hot S3 instead.
PhonesRe: Infinix Hot S3 Vs Tecno Camon CM - The Battle by koonlay101: 7:43pm On Mar 14, 2018
Infinix obviously did a good homework with this device and it definitely beats the Camon CM hands down no doubt.

The device is not available in Nigeria yet as it was launched in the Indian market. Price is rumored to be at around N55,000.

PhonesRe: My GPS Keeps Turning On Automatically After Turning It Off. by koonlay101: 4:23pm On Jan 29, 2016
Did you buy the phone new or used?

If you bought it used it's likely the previous owner has activated an anti-theft feature on it that forcefully switches on GPS to detect the user's location in case the phone is stolen.

did you added fuel to the car or changed engine oil prior to the engine fault light coming on?
Nope. I did not.

The only thing I did was add coolant to the radiator as it was empty and coolant reservoir cos I noticed it had gone below the low level.

Thanks a lot really appreciate your responses so far. Will appreciate your support in troubleshooting further

i can bet your car original mileage is more than 88k miles, its been rolled back. I'd bet my big toe on that, meanwhile did you hear any 'KPOM' sound in the front, engine or gearbox specifically?
Thanks

I suspected that the mileage has been rolled back as well but I had ran a VIN check on it and the report came clean. As for the Kpom sound, I can't seem to hear any sound or notice anything wrong with the performance of the car except for only the 'check engine' sign that suddenly came on.
Car TalkRe: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by koonlay101: 6:41am On Aug 14, 2015
Top of the morning to you Gazzuzz

I recently just got a 2001 Toyota Sienna CE and everything was in top notch at the point of purchase with 88,393 miles on it. Barely drove it for a couple of days when I noticed the check engine light suddenly came up last night when about parking.

Any ideas?

Appreciate your support.
