Are you verily sure the phone isn’t available locally? Siku hizi you buy over there if you really have to. Duty most likely to be about 40 to 50% of the buying price plus any other charges.
was thinking the same, why import a phone when most are available within.
We use aliexpress to get things that are not really available locally like screens and digitizers for exotic phones and parts that cant be found locally lakini simu nunua tu hapa brother
@kadinal Na je akiongea na mushaina amtumie ikiwa spare parts. Day one atumiwe motherboard na screen,day 2 atumiwe housing na battery si hapo amechapa KRA mti.
Wacha ufala mingi. Unasumbua mshina, he wants to move volumes not dismantling single units for you. Nunua simu hapa. Which phone does he want?
What phone model did you want to import?
Na ukikuja nayo kama msafiri ,watakukamua pia ama it can be considered as presents? What if i take it out of the box will it be considered as used?
I bought a phone in August during a sale offer and it cost me 10k then I had to wait for shipping for three weeks and the phone arrived in the country in mid September and tracking stopped at city Square post office customs department this is where the long wait starts , for me I waited for six weeks before I was called by my post office (my post office box is in the counties) to go pick my package I had to pay 2k tax and sign a slip indicating that I have confirmed the contents of the package are intact and no damages on it as it had been opened and resealed.
It was my first time to bring in a phone and I was testing the ‘waters’ lesson learnt is that your patience will be stretched and you ask yourself if the experience is worth it and there are sellers in killimal and Jumia who can bring in the phones within one month but at a small fee and there is another option of Taobao online shopping also for cheaper deals than AliExpress.
Walitaka kakitu
Imported VR and projector back in 2016 but had to pay those fuckers kakitu ndio waachilie
Kama simu ni slim ambia China man asiweke packaging ikuje kama varus.Works best for those with GPO boxes
Na accessories zikuje Kama?
yeah atakuwa amechapa kra mti but i would advice them to look at the youtube channel called strange parts where the guy is in Shenzhen already but he goes through a hustle to make an iphone and a samsung entirely from parts, so wewe hapa kenya nunua tu simu ikiwa complete alafu ikija in parts some may get lost or you may need special tools to assemble in short that is very unviable.
hapo just come with it as a used phone ukuje nayo nikama ndio simu unatumia
Accessories kama gani?Be specific i advice
