Sprumbabafather: this I dont understand ..the scarcasm seems to ve hidden the message Can you please throw more light on it....Cos yday i ve asked abt roofing sheets made in lagos and possible gimmicks by sellers....are you in anyway referring to this and what happened in 84? Do u ve a review abt this... to be honest I m skeptical abt the whole ish now ...I ve tried to follow up with some of the reviewers to ascertain if they really bought the material they claimed...cos some reviewers were posting for the 3rd time and all 3 times were just abt reviews.... we all know how some reviews re made .. the Alibaba and amazon review style . I ve messaged @Kenosas who gave a review of buying in lagos and installin in benin while residing in finland without hassles...but unfortunately i ve not recieved any reply. I dont know how the property section works...abeg make una talk the koko i nor wan come dey run after anybody. what surprises me is that the company/seller have refused to do a pay on delivery method but wants me to pay 1.5M to an account base on trust... I was willing to pay for the transport and 10-20% upfront and pay the balance once the guage is confirmed in Benin... I also asked if they could set a verification with the bank so the bank can withhold the money until i confirm the guage but they refused and insist on payin a 1.5M upfront. To me (I may be very wrong ) I'd expect the company to accept this since they will still be in possession of the materials in benin until i confirm the guage and the length. How do you guys deal with such companies/sellers? I ve had horrible experience of recent and my distrust level is at an all time high please i need ur suggestions on how to go about this...I ve done my woodwork and running against time. oga @spyder @mufutau and @EgunMogaji and other ogas them abeg una get experience buying from these companies in lagos? 1 Like |

Cindino20: verily verily I say unto you, if its not mufutau that gave you somebody's contact on here, you are most likely to pay into the account of someone who will collect your money and buy a small car to flex with girls, while telling you all sorts of lies. 1 Like |

Cindino20: Are you in Nigeria? If yes, go to a local factory in Benin and "chin up" on the price differential. I think Algean Aluminium in Benin should be up to the task but ask around or go to Asaba Aluminium company, do the payment at the factory and get a receipt and guarantee; from my experience such local companies will deliver. I used a factory in Warri as it is local for easy follow up. If you factor in the logistics cost, the price differential may not be that much at the end of the day. Paying 1.5m into an account possibly an individual account following some spurious review on Nairaland is a risk I will not take. But it's your money. But again, nothing beats due diligence and the ability to follow up if anything goes wrong. This is why I settle for local companies and chin-up on price differential with Lagos. If the project is in Lagos, it's Lagos companies, if the project is in Ibadan, it's Ibadan companies and if it is in Delta/Edo it's BENDEL companies. This way has worked for me over the years. It may work for you too. 6 Likes |

Cindino20: I’m gearing up to do my first hands on roofing job so I don’t have any experience to share yet. I’ll ping KolaShangOne for advice. As far as reviews, it’s good that you’re skittish. We’ve seen outright frauds in this section in the past. 1 Like |

peterphd: people will gladly pay if the hardware store sells reliable stuffs and affordable prices. we normally get most building materials and home improvement stuffs from the Bauhaus. It is very easy...u visit their site ..see the price or call them for enquiries but this is almost missing in all sectors in Nigeria. Dealing with such stores are usually much easier as they deliver to your sites and you can easily make enquires by calling their hotlines and check for prices online. They re trustworthy and normally ve a name to protect and ideally will not try to short change you. I dont get how we do buisness in Nigeria...Take for example..the prices of materials re usually omitted from the webpage of some companies. They dont reply messages sent via contact forms...when you even call the listed numbers ...it is often private phone numbers and the responder may be driving and tell you to call back The ease of doing business is something we need to work on... 6 Likes 1 Share |

Cindino20: My friend go and sit down. You want them to display prices online for Buharri to yank fuel prices up in the morning and dollar prices rise in the evening, who has the time to be changing price for you every minute. And if a startup is doing secretary and driver with manager same tine to cut costs you will complain, but if he hires a secretary and build the cost into your unit prices you start screaming that the company is charging higher. Better soup, na money. |

Sprumbabafather: Wow! yo...its just an opinion. I m sitting down sir Calm down....Its a suggestion..it makes life easier for the customer and also for the company/seller and if well managed can optimise profit for the business. today most people rely on information from the internet and nairaland is a testament to that so a reputable company with an online presence can key into that customer base. 3 Likes |

money121: I normally don’t write recommendations but, based on my recent satisfactory experience, I would certainly do more business with Money121. I had earlier contacted a major Alu company in Enugu for measurements and price quote on the Long span roofing of my duplex After extensive evaluation of various Enugu and Lagos based sources, I went with his company based on price, 100% Aluminum (versus Alu/zinc, etc), assurances about true gauge, and discussions with a prior customer. I paid to the parent company, and my order was cut and promptly shipped for later installation by my local people. On arrival, I verified the gauge with my digital caliper and the various cut-stack sizes with a laser meter (Yes, Twinskenny is on my project). My only regret is not ordering 0.55 gauge (instead of 0.45) for more tensile strength; unlike Alu/zinc, pure aluminum is more supple. Again, based on the price, materials quality, and business ethics experience, I will absolutely engage Money121 on further roofing needs. 1 Like |
