You can buy products from any of your trusted US online stores like Amazon, Walmart, eBay, etc using your US address provided by Heroshe, they will receive your order, you pay for shipping and have it shipped to Nigeria.
It’s just an easy process:
  1. Sign-up on Heroshe to get your US address.
  2. Shop from your favorite US online store and enter your US address as the shipping address.
  3. Heroshe receives your package at the warehouse.
  4. You pay for shipping.
  5. Heroshe delivers to Nigeria.
Well, as easy as that!
I really love shopping from Amazon, the reason being that, there are awesome items on Amazon, secondly, they’re of good quality and somewhat affordable.
There are some products in most US online stores that don’t get shipped to Nigeria and if they ship to Nigeria, you won’t be comfortable with the shipping costs.
Today, I will be doing a Heroshe review where I will talk about their shipping rates, shipping delivery time, and much more because I believe that’s one of the most important things to find out while choosing a third-party shipping company.
