Dats relatively lower..

Mhen, no one has time to go to banks anymore yo. What about Quickteller direct transfer to account?

tonjeola:
so GTbank better now, but before Access always buy my interest

This thread will help me in knowing the next place I'll bank. For now, i use Ecobank only.

Bought an app from Apple App Store this morning. $8.99

Date: Today
BANK: Ecobank
CARD TYPE: MasterCard
Currency: $
Rate: 212.5 (before commission), 217.5 (After commission).

So bottomline, i got 2 alerts as Ecobank normally does.
First one - 1910.82
Second one - 47.77. (commission)

So far, disappointed in both the S6 and M9. Lets wait and see what full reviews would report...

tumababa:
Called ndidi yesterday and he said I should come today by 12pm. I av called 23 times and 5 sms. No reply and not picking. This is really really annoying and they were not like this when they started!!!!
Totally pissed off!

Lol. You remind me of my clingy ex. Keep Calm.

nymphomaniac:
good thread...bad state of our currency. the rate to the pound is even worse of

Lol. I used to shop on asos every month. But the last time i checked, pounds was 316. Sometime last week. Asos will chill for now. lol.

kandrus:
Interesting.. All purchases online suspended till dollar drops below 200

Lol. You might have to wait for a while. Hopefully it ever happens.

Mote2:

adebayonle:
abeg wats the best battery saver app I can use on my s4

Don't use battery saver apps. Use the stock power saver.

Dieumerci:
Alright. This would be helpful.

I thought it would too, as it will help everyone. Even me.

tizzle1:
it should be around 215 to $1..try gtbank or firstbank,their rates are cheaper

Damn tho! Anyways, I don't know how many dollars i was charged on my card for App Store card registration. But 212.5 naira was debited from my account. And i know that those card reg is usually $1. Well, anyhow tho. I think what would be helpful is to open a thread that everyone can just come in after any purchase and write how much he was charged for a dollar.
While writing this, i already opened the thread, lol. Here - https://www.nairaland.com/2172391/monitoring-dollar-rate-ourselves-closely

tizzle1:
lol , no nah..it is not done that way Abeg, chinos doesn't even get to know how much the shoes cost in total, the thing he does is to receive your package, weigh and then consolidate.in this case it has to be much,if not he'll do the regular $3.95 flat rate charge per one

Lol. Mr. Ndidi told me it depends. Lol. Anyways tho, the pricing looks awesome regardless. Thanks for the assist mate. Cheers!

He ships on Mondays. So if ur items are at his place by Friday and all goes smoothly. The Next Thursday is very possible. So just chalk it down to 4 days after departure. Just being safe.

A quote from Chinos on the 14th of August (Thursday) "Good Morning, if your order was booked on Monday flight to Lagos. Your order is available for pick up. You can pick up today from 9am at my Lagos office above".

and another

"Flight leaves Mondays (once a week), arrive Lagos Tuesday and package/orders available for pick up on Thursday at my Lagos office."

It's not news that the naira is no longer as strong as it was say 6 months ago, if at all we could call that strong. Anyways the purpose of this thread is for us to monitor closely, the actual exchange rate of the dollar and pounds. This is to help most of us that do alot of buying online know where the rate is at or at least have an idea before paying for anything online. Personally, the last time i bought something online (Dec 2014), i was charged $200 on the dot and what i had in mind was somewhere around 185 ish. These goods were already paid for so I couldn't actually go back to the clients and ask for a raise. Lol. (That was a joke incase u missed it). Anyways I ended up losing alot of money but on the bright side, I was Father Christmas to my clients as i bought those things and supplied them out of my own pocket. :p

So here is how this thread would run. (If the idea is ever met with warmth).
When you make a purchase online, of course you divide the amount in the alert you got from ur bank by the amount in dollars or pounds. This is common knowledge, but still. Then u post in the format below

Date: 28th February (or just write today if it is)
BANK: Ecobank
CARD TYPE: MasterCard
Currency: $
Rate: 217.5

Well, there it is. Cheers!

Then it's cool. I need them Nike Roshe and Air Jordan 1 bad. Anybody got Ecobank recent rate abeg?

tizzle1:
$3.95 with the box

Thanks for the reply mate, if you don't mind telling me, how much did the shoes cost? because i heard the invoice not only depends on weight but item price too. Like a $20 and a $100 shoe weighing exactly the same won't cost same to ship.

Has anyone shipped a pair of shoes before, how much did it cost you?

airsaylongcon:
The screens may look similar on the outside but there are often slight differences on the inside. I have i9305 (S3 4G LT) with damaged screen.the scr3en for the i9300 wasnt a perfect fit. I might be wrong tthough for d S4.

Modified
If u r battery and screen are undamaged originals (follow come) we're game. Battery is the deal-maker

femside:
Bro dey don't use d same screen i9505 bord will get hot inside i9500 screen so dey are different screen Bro u can get another bord for ur screen and if u want to sell it like dat I'll buy contact me 08023272214

Now here is the 411. There's a crack (see pic below) on the outer glass but the screen is perfectly fine as you can see. However I have the outer glass replacement, the battery and a COMPLETE body for S4, including the middle frame where the chrome is and even the Home button. Lol. I wanted to totally 'RE-BRAND' the S4 before the board died on me.
Bottomline, If you are interested... Make me the best offer that you can and nothing less because I won't compromise. Cheers!

Chinos, i know u are a busy person, but my advice is that whenever there is a hiccup... You or one of ur associates should keep the thread updated and informed. To avoid people panicking and fighting especially those 2 guys fighting over who has the bigger balls.

The board of my S4 (GT-I9505) has fried. Both 9505 and 9500 and all other models use same screen. Anyone interested in getting the screen of S4 should holla at me. I think they fix the screen for about 25K in Computer Village here in Lagos. So we can talk something out. Cheers!

MrsNaira:
I ji okwu. I shall seriously reconsider... Thanks for the tip

Ajikwam ezigbote okwu. Ehen now. Lol. Cheers!

Ahmed4002:

shesdiamond:

MrsNaira:

shesdiamond:
Called...mm the person Dropped th call on me. and switched off his phone. Lol

Sorry to hear dat, I'm sure Chino would be happy to reply u whenever he comes online. Btw, check ur email.

MrsNaira:
@chinosxl I sent you a mail. I have four different orders with a back order. Two will arrive this week, and the rest will come next week. Pls don't ship yet. I will tell you when you can. Thanks.

MrsNaira. Omo see name oh. Lol.

The one on the right isn't fine. My own 2 cents.

R.I.P BOKO

You no go just act ur film jeje abi? U just want to scatter everywhere...

Why can't we just behave ourselves? People who fight on the Internet are cowards anyways...

shesdiamond:
please what's the mode of payment. And thing I need to know?.. thank you.

When the item(s) get to their office in houston. Email them with your full details and details of the shipment. Then they'll reply you with an invoice which you have to pay. Anyways tho, just call Mr. Ndidi (08030837047) for full details. Really nice guy! Spoke to him this morning, and that's why i could give you some info now.

shesdiamond:
Chinosxl hey? Can I ship an item. Particularly makeup? Altho It's 4 sites. Can they all get to me at ones? Hope you understand my question.

Yes, you consolidate. all of them would be put into 1 box.

Avatar:
Nope , it doesn't on Samsung when you flash the official firmware via Odin , ( talking from experience ).

tayoast:
Flashing will surely wipe ALL data on phone memory. You're advised to back up your valuable data.

No, flashing on ODIN only wipes recovery, system, data and cache partitions. sdcard partition is safe. So no, it won't wipe ur internal memory. But there is no harm in backing up.

chidi4eze:
Please does dis lilopop os come with fm radio for Samsung s5..sm-G900h.. And will the upgrade wipe everything on my fone... Any side effects on my fone.. And finally please I need d link to download it and the procedure tanx

If the phone didn't have fm radio function previously, a new software won't change dat. it's like asking if a new software can add camera to ur phone or make ur screen bigger. lol

pj3400:

SkydaDGreat:
