Top Foreign Online Shopping Sites that Ship to Nigeria from Abroad (International)
1. AliExpress | www.aliexpress.com
AliExpress.com is an online retail service made up of small businesses in China and elsewhere offering products to international online buyers. It is owned by Alibaba. AliExpress is the most visited e-commerce website in Russia and was the 10th most popular website in Brazil. It facilitates small businesses to sell to customers all over the world, and one can find almost anything for sale. It is more accurately compared to eBay, as sellers are independent, using AliExpress as a host to sell to consumers and other businesses. If you browse some of the products on AliExpress, you’ll probably notice right away that many of the prices are really low and wonder why. There are two different distinct possibilities, both of which you’ll find in abundance on the site. First, there’s the possibility that you’re buying directly from a manufacturer, which reduces the cost of selling to you. The second possibility that an item is extremely cheap is that it’s either counterfeit or fraudulent (or semi-fraudulent, as in the case of the Infinix Note 2 LTE). But all the same, there are loads of products to shop on AliExpress — you’d find consumer electronics, mobile phones, gadgets, fashion items etc. They also ship to any part of the world. If you are relatively new to shopping online on AliExpress, I think you should read the guide below for step by step guide on how to buy things there.
