okay thanks for the response.... 2 of my oders left on 24th while the 3rd one left on 26th i.e yesterday.....i will track it on monday via Nipost and see!

if the seller shipped by china post, hong kong post, sing post, nl post and you reside in Lagos, your package will arrive in 10-15 days (not working days just normal days) counting from the very day your package was registered or displayed on the tracking website..

Eg the product I want to buy is free shipping to Nigeria.. so if I put in my default address will it come here successfully?? I'm curious bcoz on the other hand I'm seeing you should use an agent in China to bring it to naija and then you have to pay.... When the original seller is doing a free shipping so please enlighten me

Both, using agents or using the free shipping option, will accomplish the same thing albeit differently.

The agents will get the products faster to you but @ a cost. The free shipping option takes between 14 days to 60 days or less.


I've used free shipping( more than 30 times) and agents ( more than 15 times). The difference is just the time of arrival.

This is my personal experience. Others experiences may differ.

Have a nice day.

PUT in ur default address and make sure ur postal code is correct it will be sent to ur nearest post office... U can use private agents if u so wish alot of them on Nairaland.... But they also have their charges... Difference is time arrival.... I have used HK post before and it took 6 days to arrive.. I use post office for tins I don't need quickly and use agents for tins I need urgently so it's ur choice hope this helped smiley

How do I go about the payment, I have the seller details already.

thank u.
I learnt it's not advisable to use that mode of payment . You have to tell the seller that your mode of payment will be escrow payment ( the seller's reason though ( might be assessed supplier) might be to dodge the escrow 5% fee or you tell him / her that you will take care of it by using Escrow payment method in case things went wrong. to calculate the 5% of the $(cost of products) for example : 5% of $300 = 5/100 x $300= $15. the $15 is the 5% of $300= $15 + $300= $315.

NB:
the price won't be higher just an addition of 5% of your total cost. ( Ymodulus, 2014)

If you're scared of making the payment, you can contact Thespecialone for further assistance on that .

dont worry bro calm down, your item will arrive. if it doesnt you can easily open up a dispute and you will have your money refunded back to you. as for my shopping experience, yanwen post are sometimes fond of giving false tracking details. they are like a small time affiliate to the other companies. its just like an agency, who collects a parcel from the sender, and then they hand it over to a big company like china post and the rest. yanwen post acts as a middle man to your item and those sellers use this method because its cheaper and its basically not registered according to what i learned. so when your items shows arrived in nigeria, dont take their words for it trust me. just relax, it will take at least a 20 days upward for that item to get to you. this is what happens, let me explain to you so next time you wont make this same mistake, when you are looking to purchase an item from any of these merchant site, and its written on the ad free shipping, just simply ask the seller what shipping method they will use if its either registered or non registered, or if the seller is slow to respond and you are in such a hurry, you can easily note, if the shipping cost is below 2 USD. you are most likely going in for the long tin non registered post. but if the item states free shipping and its below 4 USD, and you know the item worth is at least 3 usd, just know its non registered post. and when its non registered post, you'll end up with yanwen post, ec-firstclass post, or non registered china post etc.

TT is called telegraphic transfer (direct) to the seller's acct directly. It helps one boycott the charge on escrow. If you've got the details such as beneficiary name, swift code and all, and trust the seller, i can help you.
