Expect your parcel 3 weeks after shipping.

I wish I saw your post 1 week earlier.

Meister:
Which device exactly

Realme 30A or 50A

noobody:
Singapore post/AliExpress shipping this days requires plenty of patience,be ready to wait as long as 60 days if not the whole 75 days purchase protection,but the good thing is,you can always open a dispute and get full refund.


Cheers

Wow.. That's Sad.
Thank you.


Please who knows where I can get Realme devices in Nigeria here.

Welldone guys,

Just jumping in on this thread, I want to purchase a Realme device on AliExpress using the standard AliExpress shipping.

Has it been going recently?
Are there any problems with AliExpress shipping currently.

I noticed no Nigerian has bought this particular product so my concern. I don't want to wait for too long.

Thanks in advance.

[color=#0000ff] Congratulations! My 90+ days orders are still hanging somewhere o. [/color]

Chai..
Hopefully soon they should arrive.
It seems the ban on incoming flights has been lifted.

Cc Jboixx

Finally, after 87 days.
Arrival at destination country.

jboixxx:
[color=#0000ff]Boss, CPRAM should be avoided at all cost but presently, both CPRAM and Singapore are same o. I've got items dispatched by Singapore since March/April, still hanging somewhere. What I'm thinking is if one can get seller to use Turkish courier, it'd be faster than SG. [/color]

Boss what's the plan for those packages trapped somewhere, I thought we had to wait till June 7 before any sign or hope of entry. But some others have been receiving theirs.

awoo47:

i don't think it's dat long..
shld be lyk 4wks

26 - 36 working days.

precadel:
Oh OK..it's because I don't see the phone on many online hone platforms except Ali...I just had to ask...I also don't think there is a global version

There isn't any.
But to those of us using the Chinese version, are there any constraints?

moses500:
This is the tracking information of my parcel yet it is not in my immediate post office.

Please do you think I should go to post office to claim my parcel.

The tracking information shows that it is in Nigeria.

Immediately..

Delete this post and head down there..

moses500:
Please I do not understand what's is going on any more.

I ordered some items from AliExpress before the Covid 19 lockdown.

Till now I have not received anything.

Went to my post office I was told because the airport is shutdown.

Went to Oshodi post office to check for my parcels, I got insulted there.

What do you think I should do please?

You should track your items to find out their current location.

kingzleyz:
Dis was fast.. Compared to feb and match pple

My thoughts too..

samicine:
Mine just got in. How long do I wait before going to check the post office?

What shipping method was used?

segunmelvin1:
we claim too much entitlement in this country on top order wey u carry your money make

E don do na..

jboixxx:
[color=#0000ff]Who says? And AliExpress is to blame for that not our our economy? When you get more than you're charged at the initial, do you refund the excess to AliExpress/your bank? I'm sure you read the T & Cs of AliExpress before making your purchases. Stop talking as if you're been defrauded by AliExpress or any other person but yourself.

So much ish on this thread these days. Shop for Jumia, nah na AliExpress but now na AliExpress de short-change them..... Hian [/color]

I'm not blaming AE.
Aliexpress is a large scale organization, and every organization like that should have a business continuity plan for the kind of crisis we're in right now. A solid BCP would've fixed the excessive delay problems but it's alright, what do I know.

We know its not their fault it has been stressed enough, we all knew what we were getting into, I have items from Feb&Mar still in transit, I'm not crying about them. Our very own Naija still adding massively to the problem so...
I know AE will modify some of its shipping methods after now, that's for sure.

gidieberry:
I don jam a new comic hotspot, make i enjoy am while it last

Don't really know what's so funny..

We're the ones with packages trapped somewhere. Aliexpress could trade with our money and make more millions with it while we wait. Even if we open dispute we get lesser amounts than we paid.
Joke's on us.

bigrovar:
I had this conversation with a friend recently.. And this use to be my guiding principles for buying TV. This use to be a good strategy some years back (say 2014 maybe even 2015) now adays though, the bigger screen tv all come with smart features and in fact it is nolonger a premium addon for tv, you would be hard pressed to find a tv without some sort of smartness in them. In fact anyone you find is most likely an offbrand no name TV maker (think some no name android phone maker) and you are best to avoid those ones.

Adding smart features to TV has gotten so damn cheap that every manufacturer squeezes one into their set (The cut cost by installing a weak audio production - which is what has lead to the growth of sound bars) Unless you want to get 32 inches -- I don't even think you can find any 40+ screen from any of the major brands without smart features.

In all when buying a tv remember that tv is not something you change easily like a smart phone, try and get something that is at least future proof for about 5-8 years.. Features to watch out for include:

ARC (Audio return channel)
Multiple HDMI Input
CEC- enabled HDMI (usually come with ARC)
Screen with good local dimming and less of blooming (Deep, uniform blacks.)
Excellent low input lag. (good for gaming)
Support for HDR
at least 700 nit brightness

Nice to have features include
Dolby Vision
Wireless Networking and RJ45
High Refresh Rate (120hz) a most if you intend to game with your tv

And for gods sake make sure your tv is 4k.. If you can not afford a 4k, don't buy it now.
Some of the above features you may not need now, but trust me, you will appreciate them as it makes your tv future proof.


Wireless Support

#True. Thank you.
But don't you think 4k is dependant on the screen size you're going for. Dimensionally speaking. You can't fit 4096 by 2160p into anything lesser than 40inches, that's why most manufacturers don't do it.(You eyes won't see the difference).
A 1080p 40inch, might display better imagery than a 75inch 4k display because of things like contrast ratio and the number of pixels per inch.
Basically the bigger the screen the more pixels it needs for a better display.
I think it's dependant on the size of the tv, if I wanted to get a 50inch tv, it must definitely would be 4k, but a 1080p 32 - 40 inch is still not a bad deal. I think...

semid4lyfe:
Neither.

Buy a bigger screen size non-smart Full HD TV, add some money to the change and buy an android TV box.

For Android TV boxes, I recommend the Beelink GTking Pro and UGOOS AM6 Pro.

Hmmm, a very good point to look at, thank you sir.
The one thing I consider greatly tho is the user experience, wondering if the boxes offer optimal performance like the specifically designed OS for the Android tvs.
I'll do my homework before buying anyways.
Thanks.

Guys a quick one before I make a purchase..

Android TV vs regular Smart Tv, which is better?

Also anybody here with experience on the TCL S6500 tv?

romoruyi:
There is unique way you can do that; but u have to study aliexpress very well.

Please share..

Has anyone outside lagos ordered from Jumia recently, how long did it take, with the interstate LD.
Hows it been?

Midex88:
Guys pls What’s the meaning of this

Still in transit.

Midex88:
Bros. You wicked o. Besides I just came across this thread

What shipping method did you use?

Trexate:
Hello folks don't give up on your orders. My 2 orders of March 12th just arrived at destination country today.

This thing be like testimony now..
"Brethren I just want to thank God, my 2 orders from AE just landed today in Nigeria."

awoo47:
youre very funny. When u knw dere lots of issues.
anyways u might be lucky
if not prepare to wait 100days

True story..

fibonacci2526:
To be fair, the below order was even dispatched before the one that arrived yesterday and it is yet to arrive.

Maybe it has something to do with the class/type of package ordered for.
Than one I mentioned earlier, ordered the same time as yours is a phone, what's yours?

fibonacci2526:
My AliExpress order of the 13th march landed yesterday and I got a call from the PO to come pick up today. It was shipped via AES.

I have a package with the same date as yours, same purchase date same dispatch date same AES shipping, I had to recheck sharp sharp for any update but none.
It is well.

.

They keep extending my BP..
It's been 60 days already since the purchase, had 30 days to go now they've added an extra 30 that i didn't ask for to make it 60 more days..

Funny..

lavenderjade:
They cleared my two iphones today too

Great..
Gotten a call yet for any of your items?

Darlinx01:
my package has been despatched to overseas NG/LOS since the17th of march, is there any possibiility its in nigeria but the shipping info is not yet updated i gat to get either the phone or the money ....aliexpress keeps telling me i cant open dispute...i should have patience
abeg any ideas?

Yes.
Have patience.

SpeedRacer:
For a month now there’s no update on my parcel just shows departed country is origin
Tried to open dispute yesterday then no gree and seller keeps giving me this story

At least it has departed the country of Origin..
Best advice would be to just wait for the package, it's not the seller's fault there's nothing he can do.
