I see a lot of cheap electronics on the US used items market, and I would like to buy a lot of them.

But I have a lot of questions:
What is the cost of shipping and clearing items bought from US? I heard the shipping cost might make it even more expensive than the ones here in Nigeria

Anyone that ships items from the US should please help me with firsthand information.

Actively taking orders,

Cheers

Please I have questions I'd like you or anyone else with experience to answer:

- Do you know anyone that has bought TV from Alibaba?

- How was the experience?

- Is the price difference worth the stress?

- Is it the same quality of the ones we have here?

- Are the low price even real, or there's a catch?

- Is it where our local TV dealers source their stock?

There's a lot of cheap TVs there that boast of the same quality as the ones sold here at significantly higher prices, and I'm tempted to buy a replacement from there.

Hello

This new kdp policy for Nigerians to update their tax info.

How should we go about it?

Just tell them you don't have TIN and allow them cut their tax
Or you still fill in your TIN if you have any

Business › Re: What Are The Better Alternative To Chipper Cash Virtual Cards? by Tickles001(m): 4:25pm On Sep 18, 2025

Valkingtheboss:
As a Nigerian who constantly has to renew online subscriptions, it has been a struggle finding a card that works. For some time now, ChipperCash has been my go to app for virtual cards, especially for payments on Apple Music, eBay, and other online services. However, the app no longer seems reliable, and the naira-to-dollar rate is much higher than the official rate.

Does anyone have an idea of another platform where I can get reliable service and a better rate? You can suggest in the comments.

Geegpay virtual card is the ultimate

Buy things with "Choice" tag. They'll lump them together and ship to you. Choice packages have free shipping.

Okay. Thanks for the info

I want to buy random things from AliExpress. Most of them has high shipping cost, while a few are free. Is there a way I can lump everything to be shipped together and reduce shipping cost? Or any better suggestions to cut cost.

Family › Re: My Dad Wants To Settle Me With 7 Million, I Need Advice. by Tickles001(m): 2:22pm On Apr 15, 2025*

relaxfun:
A little back story.

Due to some ugly circumstances, i dropped out of school in 2019 and I've been at home since then, periodically picking up one or two low paying jobs. 2 years ago, I decided to learning a tech skill. I taught myself C++ programming language and I'm currently teaching myself mathematics aggressively, studying for min of 8 hours daily.

For the past two years, I've mostly always been in my room, I can be in our house for more than two weeks, without stepping a foot out of our door due to how engrossed in studying I always am. My goal is to learn C++, DSA , And Math to an undergraduate level then use my skills to apply for scholarships to study abroad, and probably work in a hedge fund company as a quantitative trader in the future. For those who know what leetcode is, i can currently solve most leetcode (hard) problems in less than 40 minutes.

Now, I'll be 24 in August, and my dad is worried that I'm wasting my life away because I've refused to pickup any real job or learn a trade, his worried that I'm already getting old, always reminding me that people my age are already getting married. Now he wants me to leave his house to go look for my own place to stay, and has offered me 7 million naira to go start life else where.

Now I plan to move out of Lagos to PH or Akwa Ibom, then use part of the money to start up a computer business center, where I'll be doing typing, printing, lamination, jamb registration, GCE/WAEC registrations, etc. One of the reasons I chose this is because I've worked in a place like this before and I have experience in how to run such a place. Another reason is that, this business would give me time to also study and sharpen my Math/Programming skills. I plan to rent a shop that is big enough so that I can also be sleeping/living there.

Now I seriously need advicing because this is such a turning point in my life and the next few years is going to make or break me because there is no room for any disastrous bad decision

Don't open any computer business centre. Don't even dare.
Put the whole seven million in stanbic money market funds and be getting like 100k every month.

Move to ph or any other city of your choice and start life from scratch like a nobody, while sustaining yourself with the 100k.

Do real odd jobs, squat with someone, attempt to stand on your feet without tampering with the 7million.

The aim is to expose yourself to the harsh reality of the outside world, learn to survive on small funds, know more people and gather enough real life experience that you'll need to make any headway in business.

While at it.You'll meet and work with people in different businesses, and get first hand information. Then you carefully choose the business you think aligns with you.

As a starter, avoid every business that the bulk of the startup cost goes into buying equipment and renting shop. It's usually difficult to break even early enough.
Choose a business that costs below a million to start, and that doesn't necessary require a shop or lots of equipment.

If crypto is your thing. A lot can happen for you if you trade wisely.

If you get the account details early enough, you can start investing immediately so that you have value for your deposit the same tomorrow and earn the interest, including the interest for the weekend, but if you get the details in the afternoon, you can wait to start investing on Monday
because deposits made on Friday afternoon and Monday morning have value and earn interest on Monday.

I so much appreciate this information 🙏

N5 million for every 3 months which translates to N1.7m monthly is enough for you and your family to survive in Naija.

As for me I earn 250k and am surviving very well

Even if they do. It won't be enforced.
Some states banned open grazing but cows still roam around, even inside govt property and nobody says or does anything about it.

missidy:
Can't one fence the farm? Or do these herdsmen force their way into fenced property too?

To fence about 3 acres of farm land that you probably leased will cost you, adding to the cost of the actual farming.
I tried fencing with bamboo and they keep taking it down every single night.
My neighbour, a smaller farm had a dwarf fence about 5blocks high. The cows break through the fence portion by portion until there's no meaningful barriers left of it.

The worst is they come at night. You'd just get there in the morning to see the havoc.

Even if they didn't eat the crops. They'll still pass through the farm repeatedly, trampling on the crops. Talking from experience

I've always said this same thing.

Women are a hundred times more wicked and vengeful than men, but they're just too powerless to act it out.

All men would be chained in dungeons and made to live like animals if women had upper hand.

Without adding a lot of things like what? Juju?

Yes, but not just that. You'll have to deal with morally bankrupt rivals and competitors. Have a lot of outlaws populating your innermost circle. Get entangled with most corrupt police officers.
All that is necessary to push yourself to the top as a producer.

I'm sure most people won't want to live like that

helinues:
Try crypto trading

As long as you are not greedy, slow and steady, you will be hitting

Crypto is closer to making you a dollar millionaire in Les than a decade.
If you want to enjoy crypto. Don't be greedy and over expecting. Avoid the round number trap and always take what you can.
Better gain slowly and never lose than gain bountiful and lose everything.
Lastly, never make crypto your main source of income especially in the beginning. Be mindful that the nearest road to PTSD is paved with crypto.

Suicideboy:
Meth production

Production doesn't cost much

You can start making in your house , sell to dealers in your area

Within 6 months, you're a big boy

Well, I heard this is also a money machine if you are street wise. But it won't get you where you want without adding a lot of things you don't want. Choose this as your last option.

So after everything, I went home that evening and took 3 cipro tab, next day, my groin was extremely painful and the lymph nodes on my groin swelled. Two days later I developed a mild fever, accompanied by a light headache, bitter mouth and 4 day's later I had sore throat, and swollen lymph nodes on my both under jaws and front of my right ear. Until now my throat is still sore.

From the symptoms you're having. It's very likely you've got viral infection, might even be more than one disease. It's certainly not chicken pox.
Test for herpes, HPV, hepatitis and hiv. I suspect the first one. It may be too early for labs to pick it up, so I recommend you take the lady an test her of the four diseases I mentioned. I'm sure a good lab will detect the one she has and that tells you the one you have.
PS. Viral infections don't have cure. Stay away from any pussy for now, so you won't put someone else in the same problem.
I won't bother talking about your sexual misconduct. But I'll just tell you to follow up with necessary and timely actions.
