Thanks,I was wondering if Speedaf is an option.Their price might be reasonable. I don't know if somebody here has any experience with them.
Use Speedaf cuz of timeline of delivery which is better than that of NIPOST.

Talking about cost, difference might not be much cuz it's a national delivery, not regional or intracity. EMS will charge you about N4200 as at the last time I used it. Speedaf from Lagos to Delta is 3500, so, Ibadan to Delta would be around 4k+.

As I said, I'll go with Speedaf cuz of timeline. My items are always safe with NIPOST.

Yeah I bought one about 3 weeks ago. Almost all electronics goes through NIPOST.

Ask the seller to declare it as books or other thing than phone. Else it will be lost or stolen.

Hi guys,sorry for the off topic I'm based in Abeokuta and I want to send a phone to a nairalander located in Delta state .At the moment, I'm leaning towards using nipost but it's a phone although a non working one ,
still the package could be vandalized
What's the most cost effective way to send the package.Thanks


If I were you, I won't send the phone through either Nipost or Speedaf. Rather, I'd make use of transport company because their delivery is prompt and safer( parcels normally ed in their record and receipt issued) ,and depending on location, majority of them do deliver in less than 24hrs (talking from experience).

Moreover, discuss with buyer the importance of using such transport company and how much he would have to pay for Waybill. In my experience, Waybill from my location in Lagos to Delta state is 3k and items normally get to owners at most the following day.
You can locate and use any of such company around if you so wish.

Good morning everyone, Happy New Year!
I am so happy to be here because this issue has been bothering me for about 3 weeks now.
I want to purchase a drone (Dji mini 3; it was even with a free 128 GB memory card 😭 ), I placed the order but I couldn't make payment because I didn't know the master card wouldn't work and the money was in my sister's because I don't have an ATM card.
She had a little issue with her bank also because she exceeded her daily limit, so my transaction was pending.
She rectified the issue, but something funny πŸ˜„ happened.
I placed the order Dec12, the price was $512 and #407,000...
For people who use Aliiexpress very well, you are aware there is a 20-day span to make payment.
I had about 4 days for the order to expire, and then; I noticed that when I placed the order, the dollar was around 790 and then it was 904 when I was trying to make payment, so it was still $512 but changed to #460,000.
That's a lot of increment, yeah?
Now, that particular store doesn't have that product anymore, another store has it but it's still approximately $512 and #460,000.
Then, I noticed that there is $80 off if one is using a Gtbank or Uba dollar master card.
So my point is I'll keep saving till I get 460k because I have 420 at the moment but everything I am hearing about this shipping and delivery is scary because this is all my money πŸ’΅ oh..lol...
And then, do you think that $80 dollars off is feasible?
Please, just advise me, the prices of drones in Nigeria are too high.
If there is a WhatsApp group, I don't mind being added 09017278285
Thank you.

Don't ship your drone with normal shipping. I'll suggest to get a third party shipper. Your device may likely be seized by the customs citing one useless security infringement that is non existent in our constitution or outrightly stolen. The third party shippers know how to navigate the customs wahala and duty.


GTB dollar card offered some of my friends up to $50 during the Christmas sales, dunno if it's still giving such a discount now.


I once bought a DJI drone off Alibaba, three years ago, crashed it on my second time using it smiley

Had to send it back to China for repairs (saw hell as many courier companies refused to take it citing fears it'll be stolen or seized). And had a seamless return (of course using a third party shipper) when it's fixed. Drone still flying smiley

On the second paragraph, gtbank only makes the offer available during major AliExpress sales. Right now, there's nothing like that.

I when they first introduced it a couple of years ago during one of AliExpress' sales, and shortly after naira card stopped working completely, the offer ended with the sales.

I guess they're trying to woo more customers.

Nice strategy!

Hello. Can you provide more information on the third party shipping? How's it done? How do you pick a third party shipper? Is it insured like AliExpress standard shipping?

Also, what is the best payment method to use now for payment on AliExpress?

Sorry for the many questions.

Third party shippers are just logistics companies not d with AliExpress or Alibaba.

Are they secured like AliExpress shippers? Well, yes and no, it depends on the logistics company you use. But I've never lost a dime using many different logistic companies based in China; I may just be lucky.


There are many fintech companies that can facilitate payments for USD transactions. They include and not limited to Klasha, Bitnob, Chipper Cash, etc or you can open a dollar and get your dollars in the black market and deposit in your dollar . There are also individuals here that can help you make payment (do your own research on that).

OK. Thank you for the clarification. But I'm wondering, how will I get the third party shipping company to pick up and deliver an order I place?

Before you make the order, you will chat up the seller and inform them that you have a shipper in China and then give the seller the shipper's address to send your package(s) to.

This is standard practice in Alibaba, in AliExpress some sellers may agree to ship to your shipper in China, while others will not. AliExpress sellers often like to leave logistics for AliExpress to handle as they are insured, in the event of loss, AliExpress covers the cost of the item. Thus, many sellers in AliExpress are hesitant to use third party shippers, but Alibaba sellers (usually accustomed to big buyers) are accustomed to buyers having shippers, so no biggie here.

That said, I've used third party shipper in both AliExpress and Alibaba. The highest a seller can say is no, I'll chat up another seller that may likely say yes.
