Good morning All,
Please has anyone bought items from Ali Express from China and got it delivered as scheduled?
Any issue with Nigeria Custom experienced along the way?

NEXT ,Egunsbaba,Bixton etc
Thanks

If you are buying in bulk, it's better you use Nigerian shippers in China. They buy the items for you and ship and clear them. You will only be notified to pick your items in their office.

If the item is not banned on aliexpress you won't have a problem with customs.
Delivering as scheduled? Not in this present Nigeria. It gets to Nigeria from China in 2-3 weeks, then takes 2 months for customs/post office to release it for you.
Na so.
If you are even a regular in the post office and you don't always drop something for them, they may not attend to your item.

I have bought several items from Ali-express, delivery time is between 2 weeks and 3 months depending on store and type of shipping selected. Here in Lagos the post office will charge you handling charges at around 1500 per kg. Recently ali express have recently started delivering directly to me by-passing nipost/ems, so no payment of handling charges for such items.
No issues with customs for small items, don't know for larger heavier items.

Do you need to do a roof parapet?
Are you building on a water logged land?
Try to reduce your building load with the use of polystyrene material.

Was offered the land around 2019 , then there were only carpenters / furniture makers on it

Was not suitable for my objectives then , value paint did justice to it sha . Maybe I should have held and sold later , a little regret

This is sad to see someone practically begging for his own money back just because he is being a gentleman.

Bros, I think at this point you’re being taken for granted by both the contractor AND the middleman.
You also seem to have an exaggerated perception of this “house”. Hope you’ve learnt it counts for nothing.

You should either do what others have done here in such cases with success or use street OT to deal with it, otherwise na voicemail.

I feel your pain and loss.

I understand your point bro... But if only you know how long it took me to get the 100k put together as a civil servant .. I am sure your so called street will help me cry and refund me to go in peace...
Some of us contribute as low as 25k every month from salary just to build a simple structure.. Oga flexyonline... as a street credibility sure guy that 100k is nothing to...please kindly help contribute a token from the 100k in contention left...

Bulk items are better with consolidation if you don't want to take a container by yourself. But shipment could take more than 4months to arrive.
What I know about shipping light weight items is that the cost of shipping makes them expensive. For most items that people order and ship by air freight, they are people in the local markets who have already shipped them in containers and have those items in their store, and are willing to sell less than the total cost of of doing Ali Express and the subsequent cost.

I’ll be doing similar but with automation via voice control via Alexa.

Guess you’re automating with Low Voltage Wiring System?

On the quantity of material required, there's more information needed to get what you need. However, based on my experience on the location of your site, the septic tank and soak away (Cesspool) is going to be reinforced concrete throughout. If that should be the case, then I can give you the cement and reinforcements quantities since that seems to be your concern.

Pls whats the size by feet . Pls kindly help me with the material requirements for this size . Thanks
