Haa bro, I am so sorry, I will prefer to keep it as secret please! I have discovered over time that once you mention Shipping Company on nairaland and so many people started using them, their service normally become slow and they always become irresponsible and unreliable due to the high orders they will be receiving from nairalanders. I have change up to 3 shipping company because of that. I decided to keep this one to myself, nothing is special about my shipping company though, because they charge the same rate other shipping company charge which is $5 for normal shipping and N300 for custom clearance while $10 for express.

In case you don't have shipping company that you are using yet, you can try those suggested by Nairalanders in the past like Chrisvicmall (I have used them in the past and found them very reliable then), CHYBKE GLOBAL, ANTHAS, etc.

So, allow me to still be enjoying the uninterrupted full attention and very fast services I am currently enjoying from my new shipping company I am so sorry for been selfish in this regard.

Buying from Alibaba is not that difficult, kindly search through nairaland to read what everybody have wrote in the past concerning buying from Alibaba.

Let me however, provide you with few information based on personal experience.

ALIBABA is mostly a Manufacturers and Suppliers website, which makes products there more cheaper than aliexpress and dhgate.

MINIMUM ORDER QUANTITY: Based on above fact, alibaba don't normally sell per piece as it is obtainable in both aliexpress and dhgate, they sell in MOQ (Minimum Order Quantity) which might be 10pieces, 50pieces, 1000pieces or even 10000pieces depending on the type of products you want to be involved in. You can buy below the MOQ on alibaba, is only that the price will be more higher than meeting their MOQ. You can also buy below the MOQ, if you can convince the Manufacturers or Suppliers that you just want to buy the few pieces as sample with a promise to meet the MOQ in the next order but that mean you will always look for another suppliers every time you want to order for such products. I normally let them realized I cant meet up the MOQ in some cases which the price might be higher than the MOQ but as time goes on, such Suppliers normally reduce the price even without meeting the MOQ once they see you as a regular customer of the product.

PAYMENT: Most of the Manufacturers and Suppliers don't accept escrow thereby, you can't pay through Mastercard or Visa Card. There mode of payment is always through T/T, Western Union, etc. To use T/T, you have to open domiciliary Account with any Nigerian banks to transfer money, you can't use Western Union to send money from Nigeria. But I normally pay through the shipping company I am using or through a friend, which I normally buy goods from, in aliexpress. If you have good relationship with any aliexpress seller, he can help you by just listing some products that worth the money on his store, which you will just order and he will just help you transfer the money to the Manufacturers/Suppliers once he receive it.

SHIPPING: There is no free shipping in ALIBABA, what they normally have is FOB, which is always to transfer your goods to China port before you will be responsible for any other shipping cost to Nigeria. If you are using Air Freight shipping, you can ask the Manufacturers/Suppliers to send the goods to your shipping company address (they always send my goods to my shipping company free of charge) before you will now be responsible for shipping cost to Nigeria.

WARNING: Becareful when buying from ALIBABA because there are many scammers on the site, always ensure that you transact business with a GOLD MEMBER and moreso, I always ensure that any Manufacturer/Supplier I deal with normally have minimum of 4 years Membership on ALIBABA. Ensure you and the supplier really talk extensively about the product and ask question when you are not clear. Always exchange several email and ask for warranty on any product you are buying before buying.

I hope this will help you a little bit in your quest of exploring ALIBABA.
