Mbenzy: anyone transacting with them is on his/her own, I have sent funds to them for the past 10 days via western union and my account has not been credited. I will take this matter to the law enforcement agencies and will get my cash back this week. I have tried enough. |

Hi everyone.Goodday.I sent something back to China's alisupplier and the seller confirmed order has been recieved but its been over 15 Days now and aliexpress hasn't refunded me.Is there anyway of reaching out to them/their customer's service.Has anyone ever been thru this b4? I hope they haven't forgotten to refund me ooo |
Re: Do It Yourself Importation Guide Free - Season 2 by Nobody: 12:10pm On May 11, 2016 |
jedisco:If the seller said he/she will refund u then they will.I usually pay for mold sha and i send my own design to them so i don't know which one is design fee but my mold fee has once been refunded to me as promised by a supplier but not refunded per sey.It was deducted from the total bill I was supposed to pay cos i used escrow.Gather liver&pay but if not refunded to u as promised;then argue it out with the supplier. Good luck |
Re: Do It Yourself Importation Guide Free - Season 2 by jedisco(m): 3:21pm On May 11, 2016 |
francawilson:Thanks. I'm ready to pay. Is just that he says its per design so I have to be sure of the design before they go ahead as they cannot make mock-ups. So if they do it and I don't like it, then I pay again. Also what customised items did you import as I really need all the experience I can get? |
Re: Do It Yourself Importation Guide Free - Season 2 by Nobody: 5:56pm On May 11, 2016 |
jedisco:It was customized wristwatch.They told me to pay sample fee(mold and something else.Can't remember) and dhl fee so that they will produce a sample and send to me.Someone from NL here helped me design the wristwatch as I want it so i emailed my design to them but i asked them for sample of their past wristwatch which they showed me cos i wanted to confirm they'l be capable of handling it. Ymodulus and David8 and some other guys on this business thread are good at these customized things.On alibaba.Items has MOQ (minimum quantity).I also got a contract to also do customized socks but I was travelling so I told them i can't meet up.Moreover most Alibaba suppliers I contacted told me MOQ for socks is 1500pcs&the school wanted just 500.So I let it go. Before u venture into importation.Knowlege dollar rate and the price of shipping plus cost of produ tion and ur gain.It will help u with ur quotation in ur proposal. 3 Likes |
Re: Do It Yourself Importation Guide Free - Season 2 by jedisco(m): 7:36am On May 13, 2016 |
francawilson: Good points. I would try and contact them. Another issue bothering me is getting the right and cheaper method for shipping. I'm sure after doing it the first time, it would be easier subsequently. |
Re: Do It Yourself Importation Guide Free - Season 2 by Nobody: 9:29am On May 13, 2016 |
jedisco:Shipping is what will eat into ur gain big time.I change dollar at a high rate then pay customs fee any if u're outside Lagos u pay extra to get it shipped.If u can chat with rhe gurus on NL here&if it can be produced here then do it here a nd gain more.Something I got two days ago fro China;I paid thru my nose which I regretted. |

francawilson: Hmm. I'm outside Lagos and looking at about 300pcs of customised school ties. I don't know anywhere I can get it done in Nigeria. I thought there was the option of free shipping or anyone where I can pick it up at the nearest post-office. It's the Customs duty that I don't know how it's calculated. How did you ship yours |
Re: Do It Yourself Importation Guide Free - Season 2 by jedisco(m): 10:29am On May 13, 2016 |
lordmayor4:Have you done something similar before or imported fabric in the past? Also, what method do you use for shipping? |
Re: Do It Yourself Importation Guide Free - Season 2 by lordmayor4(m): 11:46am On May 13, 2016 |
jedisco: Fabric yes and I used container shipment, cos cos was about 2 bales. |
Re: Do It Yourself Importation Guide Free - Season 2 by jedisco(m): 2:32pm On May 13, 2016 |
lordmayor4:That's big. You should be well experienced in this then. For smaller packages like mine, what option do you think is best? Also, the fabric you imported, were they already sewn (i.e shirts, dresses e.t.c) or plain? I'm asking because I'm also looking at importing customised cotton fabric for school uniform or do you know where I can get it in Nigeria? |

I want to use my first bank master card to make payment on alibaba, just want to know their current exchange rate and charges |
Re: Do It Yourself Importation Guide Free - Season 2 by Infinitikoncept(m): 4:09pm On May 13, 2016 |
jedisco:A tie is a light item so air cargo will do. If its a contract you are going for then I advise you get a good graphics designer, check out tie pictures for schools online, look for what suits you well. Tell your graphics guy to design according to the pattern your supplier gave you. He puts it on 3D,ask your supplier if it will be achievable either by monogram or its screen printing, show d school management the 3D design, they approve and u run samples. U will still get air cargo for $5.6-6/kg inclusive clearing. Please I won't answer your question again so don't bother quoting me. 2 Likes |

jedisco:You can get it done here but the quality from china will beat what we get here hands down. The few who can produce sth close after you buy the tie and they work on it may give you prices that will make you jump a bridge without second thought. 1 Like |

jedisco:The biggest advice I got on this thread is ply only the route you know well If I decide to go into furniture today my first task is to take at least two weeks practical training with a good company and learn the pros and con's cox @ d end what I'm rushing after may not be the LA crème LA crème. |

Re: Do It Yourself Importation Guide Free - Season 2 by jedisco(m): 6:20pm On May 13, 2016 |
Infinitikoncept: True. For me, I'm not doing it as a business per se. It's more of something personal. It's a single school. I had previously spoken to people to supply the items knowing full well from where they are imported. However, the prices they were giving me were quite high ( maybe cos I've seen their prices on Alibaba), so I decided to do it myself and also use it as an opportunity to learn. The market people I met had no idea about it. I've done quite some reading on it both here and on other sites and I'm still learning. That's why I want to first start with the ties. |
