fursh: The powerbank I ordered for sometime last month arrived last week but I was quite busy to collect it from Nipost office. I collected it dis mornin and it's workin perfectly.

D seller used singapore post, was thinkin it would take like a month plus to get it cos stuffs wit battery got some issues wit shipment and moreover, I've nt used singapore post before but It took 18days from the day of shipment for the product to get to Nigeria. Quite nice
What's the capacity of the power bank boss?

How fast does it fully charge your blackberry?

[quote author=mr.drizzy]u have a problem .like a really huge one if u dnt understand a statemnt pls dnt quote..when i meant dis is the best flagship device frm tecno .dats cus its the truth.dey are knwn in cost moderation,meaning dis device should cost nting higher dan 45.or did u forget gionee offer same chip just additinal little features for 60k(e6)?.now tell me who is more ignorant[/quote]Your problem is not just ignorance.

You cannot analyse.

Respect for creating a device that isn't even 2GB RAM??

Why will you even call it flagship?

Mr Know-all, so Gionee and Tecno are the only Chinese low-budget manufacturers you know?

Acidosis: You need to visit Alibaba.com

Nigerians really love to be cheated..

See let me tell you, all these bullcrap chips the chinese people package for you in the name of technology is a complete rip off..

The other day, a man bought a 4Gig memory card at the rate of N1600.. and he was like, damn! this thing is cheap..
I just shook my head and laughed..

Do you know the same memory in China is less than N150? Yes N150!

Do not be deceived.. and never let the prices of Samsung & other phones cloud your analysis.
Even if they wont sell @N15K, my N60K cannot enter Tecno's acct in exchange for that crap.
I...better give the destitutes
Here is a man with understanding of the times grin

lordZOUGA: The lack of 4G is not particular to tecno devices. Almost all Chinese devices has this deficiency. Something about lack 4G in China or something of that nature.
True, but come 20th Nov, 2013, Mediatek will release its latest processor MTK6592. It will be clocked at 2ghz.
Will support 16mp rear camera
Will support LTE connectivity

tonjeola: No wahala as its not up to 2kg,guy chat with the seller to reduce the price, one tablet for $420?
mayorall: Abi nah Gold Iphone from China grin.
9free: The thing fear me oooohhh. I don dey think whether na diamond phone....
Ymodulus: lol funny u. i dont know if it is sensitive, so i decided to hide it. Just 1 pieces.
---------------TIP NO 1 ------------------------------
Hahahaha no be so. Na u i dey follow

See let me share to you one very vital information. when you see a price on a product dont, i repeat dont you ever believe thats the real price.
You can bargain the price by
1.you can search for more of the item on aliexpress and see the estimated price or
2. Chat with the seller tell him u want to bargain on price after you don bargain finish. Then order and tell him to adjust the price. from there you pay.

-----------------TIP NO 2--------------------------------
How to USE CHEAP DHL SHIPPING.

Just like above. also bargain with your seller on the shipping. see one secret you should know is that some of those DHL SHIPPING FEE you see on most product are hiked fee by the seller, so always sweet talk your seller and beat down the price.
Thanks bosses!

No be gold iphone o
It's a 6" phablet and quite powerful. I watched the reviews online sef grin

Ymodulus: This is a product i bought the seller adjusted the price. its a suit. AND a shoe.
Thanks boss, you be bargaining master o
How do you do it?? huh
Teash me na sad


tonjeola: On your 1st question, before you "check out" which is the last stage to make payment, you will see the price already adjusted before you check out...you are not the one to adjust the price, but the seller on his/her own side.
once your order is above 2kg, expecting DHL/Custom wahala.
Thanks boss...the item weighs about 0.8kg max. No custom wahala shey?
Phew! grin

Ptars: Place the order then get back to ur chat room and inform the seller. After u have done dis and he replies u dat he has effected the change, go back to ur browser where u placed the order and refreshed the page by pressing ctrl+R. You should the effect changed then you can go ahead with payment. Pls dont go ahead wit payment if the effect isnt changed yet.
Thanks boss


mayorall: Aliexpress will notify you once she changed the price, on the order details, see finances and other total, when you wanna pay you will see the total amount before you make payment.

Custom charge for goods above $500 dollars or $500 dollars or if the goods is up to 500 pieces. Stand to be corrected.
Thanks boss.
The item is only one piece and costs about $420.
No wahala probably shey?

Mehn, I get like 4 bosses niyen.
Hehe grin grin

Hi guys,
Hi mayorall, hi Tonjeola
I wanna buy a phone on aliexpress. I chatted with the seller and asked her to include a black phone case she said it will cost an extra $10 and that after placing the order I should send her a message to include the case and then she'll adjust the price.

1. Please who knows where/how exactly I'll find the adjusted price and how I'll make the final payment so the amount I pay tallies with what we agree and not just with the price on the page at present??

She said for the amount of my order, I may have to pay custom tax: I'm shipping through DHL. Total of $420.

2. Please who knows what custom tax is about and what the rate is in Nigeria?

sapienman: Hello,
Here's the problem with my pc.
After turning it on, before booting, it shows a page with options 'Repair' and 'Start Windows normally.
After choosing either of them, it shows a window that says the pc has some errors and asks if I want to repair it. If I click 'Repair,' it shows a window that says 'Repairing windows.' It continues for hours without any difference. Please what shall I do?
It's a small hp netbook, with intel atom problemrocessor
sapienman: Hello deji2009, after I posted this question last week, you put me through on how to do a system restore in safe mode.
Well, I did that but when the system restarted there was no difference. Till now, it has the same issues! Also, on starting the system, it says the power of the battery is weak.
What do I do?
deji2009: That's correct ! I would advise you take back to factory settings, all data will be lost
if you don't have anything to backup restart it and make sure laptop is plugged to source as
the process can take 45 minutes or longer. Then keep pressing f11 to start recovery manager
system recovery no backup then follow the instructions to finish.

Make sure no usb or anything attached before doing the recovery. This is the easiest solution for you
Thanks for your reply!
Is there no other way to solve the problem without losing the data on the pc?
I have so many files I'll love to backup

deji2009: restart keep pressing f8 go for
safe mode. the icons will b big dont panic
once in safe mode and u can c d desktop
use google to research how you can system restore
it to when it was working. in addition to that restart
d laptop and keep pressing f10 go to diagnostics and
run me a hard drive test.
Thanks a lot boss.
I restarted in safe mode and I also restarted and ran the hard drive test.
During the hard drive test, when the progress gets to 34% it hangs and doesn't proceed.
Also, my pc is not connected to the internet. Can I browse on how to do the system restore on my phone? I use a blackberry

mayorall: That's the estimated delivery time. When it gets to Osogbo, Alfa will call you. Just send him his #100 airtime ashap. Tell him to keep it for you.
Boss, I made a tiny mistake in my last post.
My shipping address is Ile-Ife, Osun State and not Osogbo.
Can this be changed to Lagos, what do you advise?

mayorall: In transit boss.
Thanks boss. I placed my order on Friday, 4th October.
Got my tracking number a week later.
It's almost 3 weeks now. #fingerscrossed


presiade: I in fact collected my package (wrist watches) @ Osogbo, Osun State thru China Post.
Wow! I input my shipping address as Oshogbo. I'm in Lagos though, I expected ASUU strike would be off by now sad
I hope I can defer collecting my item from nipost till a later date, maybe even next year!
Mayorall, do you think I should leave the item in the custody of nipost till I go back to Osun which will be when the strike is called off or shall I change my shipping address to Lagos?
PS: I'll leave Lagos in 2 weeks' time!
