Good morning.
Please what are the possibilities of receiving a package(Order From Aliexpress) here in Nigeria, if shipped from China by Sea.

The product is Lithium ion phosphate battery of about 5kg.

I guess it will take more than 100days if I will ever receive it.

Any One with experience on receiving parcel sent by Sea? Please Share with Us. Thank you.

jaycole:

Check more options and see if there's anyone with tracking

Adegbem01:

we can, aliexpress customer care is very active, we just need to do it in mass, they will definitely listen, speedaf is the way to go now, just that speedaf don't ship anything battery for now and they are only in china.
if we keep the pressure, they can always find a way to commit to speedaf and help make the company take on more responsibilty

I've not been able to get past the bot lately.
How can I get past the bot to chat with a customer care agent

wow.. this seller has bad reviews on the diyforum,
its best to ask these questions before buying, asking after purchase....what exactly do you hope to achieve?

lithium ion..are you sure. lithium phosphate is safer...and am fairly certain your battery is lithium phosphate not lithium ion

PoorUgly:


I did all that, though I didn't threat. I even shot a video of the unboxing right there on the counter. Took pictures too.

AliExpress has refunded me the money but still I miss that tablet and I wish the person that stole this is caught arrested and removed from the logistics line.

Because this experience is like one step forward 2 backwards.

Boss na Nigeria we dey, i feel your pain sha, Happy you got your money back

I messaged a seller..
Since my order have been stucked at dispatched to overseas for 55 days now...
And this is the reply I got

Good day guys

Pls, this will be my 1st time buying off aliexpress,
I want to purchase Samsung note 10+ with charger from a seller but I have no idea how to purchase from aliexpress.

What's the current official exchange rate and how long will it take to get to me.

Another thing I need to know, pls put me through..

the seller is a good guy judging by this reply, so exactly what they suggested, file a dispute after 60days.

Exchange rate depends on your bank.
How long it'll take depends on the shipping method used.

Most banks have a limit of $100 dollars, Access bank has a limit of $300
Since the phone is 495, you'll have to contact the seller to split payment so that you can pay with multiple cards or use a service like barter(They use a much higher rate though - around 570)

Ask the seller to mark it as Gift and devalue it

Icolosis:

Pls whats the exchange rate for GTbank and which shipper is the fastest on the platform.

Shimmaa:

Don't know exactly, the exchange rate is not static, can change within minutes

Aliexpress Cainio(Speedaf) is the fastest (Not Cainio standard for special goods)
Most times it is shown as Aliexpress standard shipping for sellers on the Mainland
But since it is a phone you're buying, AESS will most likely be SingPost which can take forever

Okay


What advice do you have for someone who wants to be buying in bulk and sell in retail here in Nigeria

did anyone notice prices of things on AliExpress going up by 20% or is it just me?!?

Shimmaa:




Okay

Aliexpress is not the best for bulk buying, expecially of big and expensive things like phones.

I don't know where retailers in Nigeria get theirs but you can check Alibaba and 1688.
Bear in mind it's not as straight foward as Aliexpress. You'll have to employ agents for this and that.

They're about to start paying VAT to Nigeria, I was waiting for something like this to happen.

jboixxx:
Send a mail to the pmg and copy cpc. Check their respective sites for the email addresses.

Thanks.

Yeah!

kachi19:

And they are trying to use more expensive but reliable delivery services.

Keep shopping. If you enter gold or platinum member your prices will be 10% or more cheaper. That's what I enjoy.

Thanks for this�

Chai! You dey quite lucky ó, as customs dem no just reason your matter. E be like say the yuletide don disorient dem small, so dem no get time for una package.

Na this kain luck person dey tap into. Unfortunately all fi gers no dey equal.

Congrats on escaping customs wàhálà.



It only got to the destination country but was not delivered to the recipient. So I don't think that counts against you.

Usually in worst case scenario, inquest may be sent to NIPOST from China to trace the termination of an item. In such instances, they trace it as far as the last stop and if it is found out that it was truly not delivered, then you have no problems.
