Do you believe that Konga now knows nothing again about consolidation of multiple items before delivery as they now charge full and separate delivery fees on each of the multiple items you buy on their site?

Imagine I recently wanted to buy 3 separate items from Konga on a single purchase; one is phone battery for N3,800 the other is a pair of jean trouser for N3,500 and the third is USB data cable for N700 and when I was about to check out, I noticed that Konga has added N1,000 each on the items as delivery fee, totalling N3,000 for the delivery charges and that was how I quickly terminated the order.

It seems Konga are failing to realise that they have competitors.

We are enduring the fact that they have recently hiked delivery fees on their items and then come again to notice this recent development.

It's now hightime person began to boycott shopping from Konga if they continue this way.

They even failed to realise that at times people shop for multiple items just because of leverage on delivery fees, but they have now defeated that aim by charging full seperate fees to deliver multiple items made on single purchase.

Would you have gone ahead with the purchase if you were in my shoes?

Use jumia or dealdey, problem solved

CARLOSZ:
Use jumia or dealdey, problem solved

The issue is that it is only Konga that has one of the major items I needed, so I will have to go for only one

That's outrageous. I just randomly selected 3 items on Jumia to see if they've also joined in the madness. I was charged N700 for delivery to my location and N300 to the nearest pick-up station. Konga must be crazy to introduce such outrageous shipping fees.

dear I just tire for Konga. Jumia didn't join this random Konga madness. I ordered 3 different items recently for somebody from Jumia and the items were consolidated and N1,200 was charged as delivery fee for all 3 items and the fee was distributed in fractions to each of the items.

Konga has to cut us some slacks and stop this random madness

That is outrageous!

dollar don high!

because they can and there's no one dat can stop dem

Konga is truly crazy. This is madness of the highest order.

The Reason is CHANGE BY APC

Because they can never be jumia and will never be jumia.

What you people may not understand is konga is a marketplace where we have thousands of sellers or do you think konga own all the products you see that's displayed on their site? Even jumia doesn't! Some merchants are in Lagos and some are not in Lagos.

When you ordered for 5 items it could be from five different merchants. With 5 different order number, every merchant ships differently or do you expect the merchant in Lagos island and one in mushin then the other one in surulere to start hooking up with themselves just because they want to ship your order?

If you order from same seller, you will be charged one shipping fee. If you order from konga itself you will be charged one shipping fee. Try it out and tell me if it doesn't appear that way!

And for those or y'all shouting jumia, jumia charges delivery fee based on weight while konga charges with distance. If you want to see Jumia's craziness on shipping fee, order for a washing machine, fridge and flat screen TV then check out the delivery fee.

By the way I'm not a staff of konga. I'm just a merchant on both platforms so I know how it works.
Adios

Go to the market yourself and do the shopping.

The wind of CHANGE must of gotten to Konga..

This is because all the items on konga are not only sold by Konga. There are thousands of individual sellers on konga and each have their own delivery fees. So if you buy from seller A who sells shoes, he will charge his own delivery fees, If you buy phone battery from seller B, he will charge his own delivery fees. This is why orders get delivered at different times as there is also a self fulfill option for the sellers where they can deliver themselves and get their cash immediately without waiting for Konga to Remit to them

Sellers are allowed to charge for delivery or offer free delivery too. If you buy all your items from a particular seller, you don't get charged multiple delivery.

Thanks for the info I thought I was the only one. Mine was with Jumia they are doing same and sometimes you realize that the delivery charge is even higher than the cost of item bought. I had to engage their delivery men recently and I was not satisfied with the explanation that delivery is charged based on weight and I know this was not so at the beginning. So henceforth I wait until I have the time and I will go to Balogun market to get some of the items I need. For now, no online shopping

Whenever I make an attempt to place an order on Konga.com, I keep getting a standard delivery price of 3000 for just an item. This usually makes me prefer Jumia to Konga.

Are you sure Konga is the seller of all the items?

Konga is a marketplace where different sellers display , sell and ship their sold items to customers individually,

The reason maybe that those items u selected MAY not be fulfilled by Konga, rather 3 different sellers.

Imagine-
Item A- seller is in inyan ipaja
Item A- seller in Ikeja
Item A- seller In badagry

How do you expect a perfect consolidated delivery?

I don't represent Konga and I stopped shopping on Konga for a very long time now,

Just making a realistic sense

To give you the best service

If you order item that Konga is the seller, they we charge you for only single order but if you order item from Chinedu, Muhammad and Bola they we charge you differently and issue different receipt.
Benefit of it that I notice is, because of fast delivery, anyone of them that is ready can shipped is item on is own. But if it is to shipped together they we need to wait for all of them before shipping. So that cause delay shipment. Try to order different item that Konga is the seller they we charge u for single shipment. As a regular customer that what I notice. Hope it help
