So I have always wanted to buy an extended battery for my phone. Problem was that providers of such batteries (Anker, zerolemon and hyperion) were not shipping to Kenya. My only option was to ask someone in the US to send it to me however I did not know anyone who was willing to assist me in that way.
Later as I was surfing Ktalk I learned that there were local agencies who could ship for you at a fee. The likes of vitumob and savostore. I gave Vitumob a try but they were too expensive as i had to pay more than double the price of the battery. Then I found kentexcargo through discussions here at Ktalk. Kentexcargo was a bit cheaper than vitu mob and they looked legit to me so I decided to give them a try in any case the monetary value of the battery was worth the risk.
So on 19/06/2015 I contacted them with the Amazon URL of the battery i wanted to buy via email. They got back to me immediately with details of the process together with an invoice. I paid via MPESA paybill on the same day 19/06. They informed me that it would take 15-21 days. On friday, 03/07/2015 they sent me an email informing me that my battery had arrived. Since I dont live near Nairobi I called them and asked them to send it to me via a local courier service which they did but I had to pay for that. the package arrived this past saturday exactly two weeks after I ordered.
What I ordered is what I got and there was a return policy if it was not exactly the same. i have no complaints. I give Kentexcargo an A for quality of service as well as customer relations. I would like to thank @Luther12 @ol monk who assisted me with information. CC @123tokambio @nairobilay @kijanamrefu @shocks @danji1 @demshyna @Okiya @The.Black.Templar @Lifeist @WuTang @The truth
