@madrush

only you can take this decision. as we don't know the cost of the item or how desperately u need it..etc

Cost was about $680. Seller valuated at $250 (That was what brought the initial 110k duties). Apparently customs opened the item, determined the actual value and increased the duties to 306k.

If you have a penchant for some risk taking, you can try what I once did in similar circumstance. I refused to pay the duties and the package was returned to sender. I filed a dispute and got refunded. While this stunt may not end up as mine did, it's just something worth considering should you see paying this hefty sum as something you can't do.

Thanks. I ended up paying the 306k. Just wasn't ready for the hassle. Big mistake not checking the shipping method before paying. Never made that mistake in all my years with Aliexpress. Never again.

Good day guys. I have a pending Aliexpress shipment using DHL (It was a mistake, I didn't even check until after placing the order). Anyways as expected, I was charged custom duties (About 110k). I got a link via SMS to make the payment on their official payment portal. I tried paying several times but was unsuccessful, only for me to check back this morning and I'm seeing an almost 300% increase in the charges (Now 306k custom duties to pay), which is honestly ridiculous. Is this normal? I can't even get them on call via their customer care line and they're not very responsive via mails. I'd appreciate any assistance I can get on this. Thanks.

Yup. But the exchange rate still comes to mind. Because the new rules for Banks selling Forex doesn't cover personal shopping from what I can understand. And black market is still over ₦500

Damn... Omo, this is frustrating I swear. Thanks

I think standard chartered Bank does $200 and maybe Alat but be wary of the exchange rate

Okay, thank you. Will opening a domiciliary with any of the major banks totally solve this issue. I don't think I have a way of accessing Standard Chartered or Alat for now and I don't like the rates I'm seeing at all.

Hello... Good morning guys. I've been off for a while and have lost track of a lot. I'm about to order something and I'd like to know if any bank currently offers over $100 limit on transactions. Thank you

Please ooo, y'all be very careful abeg, like someone earlier said, I know a lot of us are desperate right now, but please be cautious in whatever you do. For person to dey lose money when nor dey this period nor nice at all. So for anybody offering you assistance, I'm not saying don't get involved o, but go in with one leg. Follow your instincts, the moment you get any suspicion of scam, run!!! Don't wait to just see whether you were right or wrong. (If it sounds even just a little bit like a scam, it most likely is a scam, simple) All these help being offered here like water, nor be so things easy real life, just know that one.

Seems things are slowly getting back to normal. I made four orders; June 15th, June 16th, July 22nd and July 26th. Within the last few days, all have arrived Nigeria, I'm yet to receive any of them though, I'm in Delta. This week or next week, I should get them. I've been using aliexpress for some time now so I never really panicked. Followed this thread in silence while I waited, but I have to say, it was frustrating at times. I think the worst is behind us. My guess is within 3-5 months, normalcy will resume. For now, I'm still ordering more items without worry. From the looks of things, orders now are taking a month or less. That's massive improvement in my books. Plus I don't really get this NIPOST slander going on here. As far as Nigerian systems go, NIPOST is actually one of the more functional ones. I've had only positives with them all through; so far at least. Can't really blame them, the pandemic did much worse to even more established systems, so they've actually done quite well in my opinion.

Please... Can anyone estimate the data consumption of this game for me.? Like a rough estimate of how much data about 1-2hours of game play would consume. Absolutely love pes on PC, about to delve into android next... Thanks

Anyone using this currently. Can't find a review on any Nigerian forum. How's the performance. I don't care about the battery life
