Thanks man, I think I needed that.
If that's the case, I guess I have to wait a little longer.
How do I tell them to use the express shipping option incase of next time?

Once your goods gets to NK
Call Judy to confirm it then ask her to ship it by Express.

Hello Fellow Mini Importers
I salute your courage and ability to take risk because importation is the actual definition of RISK.

I experienced something recently while sourcing for supplier of a particular product, I received responses from different suppliers via alibaba sourcing platform but I note 3 suppliers, who do not have store on alibaba, because before I pay a supplier, I will love to research if I am not throwing money into waste bin. These suppliers don't have much online reputations, available information are presented on their various websites. well, I neglected 2 suppliers and discussed with one supplier for days but subsequently I researched and learnt that the supplier seems to be a scam because of this:
http://alibabascam.com/question.php?id=2587

because a buyer was duped or scamed of 1000USD, so I back off some minutes to payment and forward the link via a mail to her and she replied by still protecting the company's image, though she tries to reconvince me but the company appears to be no longer deemed of credibility.

THAT SCENERIO PROMPTS THE QUESTION THIS QUES. WHAT IS THE BEST MEANS OF PAYING A COMPANY/SUPPLIER IN CHINA?

Because she said if I don't TRUST her or her company, I should trust PayPal?
Is PayPal the Best, or TT, Western Union, escrow, etc?

Please I HUMBLY seek for enlightenment from all Importers on NL.

You can use PayPal to pay.
You can also use NonnyKings to send money to seller

If you are buying from aliexpress always read the comments from other buyers.

If you are buying from alibaba make sure you only buy from verified Suppliers

Still scared I can help you verify the company

Hope it helps?

Cheers!

Thanks alot. I used Enterprise Mastercard and I've done what u said and they told me that a certain amount of money has been deducted from my account. But what I'm not sure off is how to verify the account because they said I would be given a code which I've not seen yet. I'm not clear about how and when they will send the 4-digit code to me. Can help me?

always seek for sellers/suppliers that will allow d use of escrow system as a mode of payment. With escrow, you can still have your money refunded if the seller wants to play smart.escrow wil not release your money to them except u receive ur goods in good condition within d time frame and also cornfirm it.

Nice thread. I have tested the mini importation business starting with 10,000. naira and I imported six 5600mah power banks via free shipping which took around three weeks. However I would lobe to continue the biz but with a faster and reliable shipping method which would not cost too much instead of free shipping. I have seen that the op said nonnykings does not help in importing battery items. I feel bad abt that.And pls op, right now am serving in Jos and I would like to continue the biz without free shipping. Can you help me out on how to do it?

No I didn't say NonnyK don't ship battery items.

Hope this help and you can now start fast as possible.

Good luck

Actually, the last time i imported power banks through noniking, there charges for non batteries are the same with battery product. They charged me $4.67/KG + 3 00 custom clearance. Just that there customer service and delivery time was very very bad. So i switched to st. patrick which is faster and there customer service was superb! Noniking is good at express shipping and very bad at normal shipping.

use escrow jejely or PayPal. but if your instinct says scam alert no point paying cox d truth is I have never used escrow cox I've always done my research well enough so its always been PayPal and T/T

Thanks 4 ur quick response.

Sir, hope the good I pay for won't be sent to that addrees? And if it will, how will I get it from US?

Please do not insert a US address if you don't wish to ship your goods there to avoid problem. Let assume now that you paid your seller in china with paypal, you'll be required to input your own preferred shipping address/ billing address, unless you told them specifically where to ship; they'll ship to that US address you entered.

I pay with paypal, so i know what i'm saying. You are required to put your own address or if you want them to ship to an agent in china(like noniking or st. patrick), insert their address as your shipping address. And also send the address to the seller on whatsapp or wechat or any means you use in contacting the- to avoid story.
