@@Dkens hello i would love to introduce you to a perfume business where you can buy original high quality perfumes at very low prices and retsell them in kenya for excellent profits. let me know if you would be interested in finding out more
Heh that 18% is so much..I’ve shipped with savostore before and I kept on wondering why the price was sooo high..let me try kentex bcz I really have a lot of stuff to buy for my business…aki thank you 🙏 you have saved this mama
This was informative, I have never used Kentex but I have used Amazon over 5 times and only one time or twice they have shipped withing their 14day period intact there was a time I waited for over a month , I'll have to try Kentex the next time I ship .
Bro, how am I finding you today!! Love the video and it’s answered all my questions. I used Safariline Cargo to ship from Dubai but I am currently looking to get stuff from USA. Safariline and other companies I know stopped shipping electronics especially with the new taxation. Have you shipped anything recently? And which company would you recommend? Asking just in case your views have changed since doing this video.
Thank you! Actually a desk setup video is coming up next this Sunday... please check back! But I will also definitely do a specific streaming setup video in future.
Dude! I just watched that other video yesterday morning, I'm planning to buy a laptop from Amazon and that video has helped me a lot, I wasn't sure if people ship to kenya and after watching that video I was more than satisfied. And could you please do a review of your custom built pc? I would really like to see how it works, I have only seen wazungu do pc builds, I've not seen anyone around do that, I'm shy to try it myself but if you could, man! That would mean alot. Thanks
Thanks, good to know the video has been of help. I already made a video about the build here: th-cam.com/video/h2Ix1Yt_v0Y/w-d-xo.html ... I don't know if you've already watched that, but I'll do a follow up video soon. Meanwhile, I'll appreciate it if you use my amazon link to buy your laptop, thanks! amzn.to/2XbwJqb
I actually stopped shipping with Savostore due to their exorbitant pricing. It's just ridiculous. Nowadays I use Statesduka. Their prices are just hard to beat. I've not had any problems with them but their customer service is atrocious. I'll have to point that out
I also used Statesduka for a while thinking that it was a safe heaven. After a few orders they also started sand bagging me with outrageous pricing. Given that their customer service is atrocious as Sami referred to, You are fckd either ways.
@@Dkens Hi, I cannot find Aquantuo warehouse addresses. Does that mean that they have to handle the purchase themselves and then ship the item or what.?
Excellent Video I have 2 questions though:- 1) Do i have to pay any customs and or other levies when my shipment arrives in Kenya 2) Do either of the companies do home delivery or do i have to go collect? Regards
Customs duty is usually included in the shipping cost so you don't pay or follow up on the customs clearance yourself. You can choose to collect from them when it arrives in Nairobi or have it shipped forward to your final destination in Kenya at an additional fee. For Kentex Cargo they use Wells Fargo if I am not mistaken.
Lucky Duck... You are one of the few customers I have come across that has had a positive experience with kentexcargo. In my own experience, kentex committed all the crimes you just placed on SavoStore's doorstep. But what's even worse is the fact that they charged me an extra $100 because of delays in shipping from faults of their own over in US. IF YOU ARE READING THIS, IGNORE BOTH COMPANIES, THEY'LL BOTH LEAVE YOU CRYING
Pole for your experience, but please note that this video is more than a year old now. Though I guess generally shipping goes well for most people, but a few may have issues.
Hi, thanks for a such precise and detail video. New subscriber here. This is what I have been looking for for a long time and you have done well to go a head of my fears and imported computer parts. My question would be, which company did you use to import computer parts above $100 dollars? Did they charge extra for insurance purposes and what was the percentage if they did?
Oi... Dickenns, Can you do a comparison btn States Duka, Kentex cargo and Horizon World Cargo. I have been shipping items with States Duka & truth be told their services are not great. I'd love to hear what's your take on it because am currently on the verge of jumping ship. Nice job, Great channel.👍
These shipping services have becoming quite many I doubt I can be able to use all of them, but I'll try a variety. Currently my top recommendation is Aquantuo.
@@sylviarahabngimawahome8980 Well, as someone who has used Kentex I'd recommend it for your peace of mind. You can make purchase yourself and have items delivered to their warehouse address. Aquantuo has preference of making the purchase for you. Kentex did lose my package once but hey, they did issue a full refund.
Thanks for watching, I might do that with time... but its not difficult, you just use the Kentex warehouse address as your shipping address on the site you're buying from.
Great video Could you offer UK to Kenya video as av noticed distance is shorter and many people have not covered that section alot as USA to Kenya please
I used Globe Flight Kenya to ship an xbox series s from UK. Arrived at their UK warehouse in Southall on 31st March. Shipped from UK to Kenya on Saturday 3rd April. Available for pickup at Nextgen mall on 8th April. Charges were 9.5 Pounds/kg + Kes 2000 service fee.
And how do you make your videos so small, I'm downloading for offline viewing and I'm really impressed on how small in size they are(20-40mb for 720p videos) Other people's videos are 700mb buwana!! How do you do it man?
I’m looking to buy entertainment equipment,Tv and Home Theatre system which I noticed on Best Buy is cheaper,are those items safe for use in Kenya,also thank you for the very informative video
Since most of these gadgets are bulky I suppose, You might consider ocean freight. Shipping such heavy items like home theatres via air can be ridiculously expensive.
I purchased two items on Amazon and they have arrived at Kentex warehouse in the USA. They are to be in Kenya by the January 21. will keep everyone updated. I would also like to know if Kentex shipS from Kenya to the USA?
I want to have a laptop and some office accessories send form the US to Kenya, I wanted to use DHL,,, what information do I need to give the shipping company? I don’t have a P.O. Box address, is it a must if i want them shipped to me so I can collect in Nairobi? Please advise
Hey Dickens.I watched your video and actually bought stuff and they got delivered to kentex cargo warehouse.I have been checking portal Yao they don’t update .Am scared as well as confused .Cause it’s the first time using them. How long did it take for them to ship your stuff to you? Kindly let me know .Thanks in advance
@@Dkens Wish i'd watched your linked video last month. I have shipment with Kentex that left their US warehouse since 28th March 2022 until now no word. Feel like its taking eternity. May be its coz my stuff are urgently needed.
Did kra charge you for shipping??? Is there any charges beside the original cost of the product or receiving taxes outside the price of shipping and cargo
Thank you brother for your information. I have one question. Do i have to pay customs duty or VAT when item arrives kenya? I am trying to ship some used and new clothes to a friend in kenya. Around 7 kgs i would say. Thank you.
3.48 Insurance is tricky. What is the risk factor here @ 5%. I would imagine if I was shipping stuff worth $10000/- I would have to pay 500/- in insurance but there's no clear communication on what it covers or compensation terms.
Hey dude...i found your video and did a "buy and shipment"frok kentex and paid like last week but i have not received any info from them....should i call to confirm whether they have made the oder or i should wait.?
I would double check in terms of drones. I thought drones cannot be shipped. I say this because they are on Savo Store's prohibited list. But I could be wrong. See this link: www.savostore.com/pages/prohibited-items/

Yes they will send... And you can just buy from Amazon and send to their US address. Contact them to confirm.

I would double check in terms of drones. I thought drones cannot be shipped. I say this because they are on Savo Store's prohibited list. But I could be wrong. See this link: www.savostore.com/pages/prohibited-items/
Specs and costs for the beast machine?

Is Shop and Ship cheaper than using Kentex cargo?
I don't think so...
And how do I ship to Usa now? Please help
Ill share if I find any better alternative to the usual post office.
Great video. What is the most expensive shipment you would consider shipping through Kentex?
At this point I think I can trust them with nearly anything... Ive seen them ship quite some expensive stuff
Can Kentex deliver to your personal P.O Box wherever in the country.
They normally deliver via courier
@@Dkens So it will come to my personal PO box
No, usually couriers like Wells Fargo,you go pick your stuff in their office
Who pays for customs fees
Its probably included in their price per kg
I like salihiya.
Also good!
