Knowing that Black Friday will soon be upon us.. and Amazon as we know it is the King of BlackFriday. But the fear of the unknown holds a lot of us back from buying from them as most of us aren't sure of how to get our desired items delivered to Us right here in Nigeria.

And as such I am trying to have a thread on Nairaland the can remedy that for Us. So if you have ever ordered anything from Amazon or even eBay and had it delivered to you over here in Nigeria pls do share your experience. What method did you use? Even if it's a third-party you used? Or a shipping service you used... On Nairaland or otherwise? How much did it cost you? And if you have ever been scammed by a shipping service do let us know too!

Your contribution will be much appreciated by those in need of these information... Myself included!

Really! I have considered that. What shipping service do you use?

Get a third party seller on nairaland like mayorall to handle shipping for you. If you ship directly custom officers will use you to do Christmas.

The question is have u used this @mayorall and can vouch for him?

DaveHert2:

Oh yeah I use him regularly.

DaveHert2:

Oh yeah I use him regularly. You can see his thread. There are also others and if you are not still comfortable you can use mall for Africa but never do it directly, the duties will be too high for you to pay. The custom officers at NAHCO are all criminals and they connive with DHL and FedEx to cheat and rip off people. They have been threads on nairaland about such.

Alright that's good to know... Hopefully his rates are affordable.

Lolz i figured as much when I tried ordering a TV on Amazon and the custom fee and shipping fee was higher than the actual TV I was getting.

They are worse than the police and there's absolutely no way to know the right duties to pay. Check the custom tariff section on the custom website it doesn't go through. It's really terrible.

I can vouch for him
He's legit
Don't ship directly to Nigeria, the custom duty ll be too high

Please explain more on never doing Mall for Africa directly to reduce shipping costs. Thanks

The custom officers at NAHCO are criminals. There's no way for an average Nigerian to know the right custom duties to pay on products so most times we get scammed and the scamming is done by customs in connivance with the shipping companies like FedEx and UPS. It's best to leave shipping to a third party as it's their business and they know all about the duties and the right duties to pay. Third party shippers like mall for Africa and mayorall.

Thank you. I buy from e.g Amazon and use mall for Africa to ship directly to Abuja and I pick up but the charges are high. How do you shop directly from there at good rates and prompt delivery?

Use mayorall. He's on nairaland.

I use some of these guys that do checkout if I want to buy from Amazon or eBay and so don't pay as much, then I use HeroShe to ship the goods for delivery to my house.
