Patrick... we don't want to be lumped as "them Kenyans and Nigerians" when purchasing items from Amazon in a global marketplace..we want in for most items, that is until they setup shop here. On Thu, Oct 8, 2015 at 1:17 PM, Patrick Mathenge via skunkworks < skunkworks@lists.my.co.ke> wrote:
I think what has not been coming out clear here is that when guys put up their stuff on sale on amazon, they have an option of whether they would ship to Kenya/Nigeria or not. That said, not everything you buy can be shipped.. The way to display only those products that can be shipped to Kenya/ Nigeria is through refining your search BEFORE by checking the box "Ship to Kenya and Nigeria" and therefore order within those confines. I found this link <http://techcabal.com/2015/10/06/how-to-ship-from-amazon-to-nigeria-in-10-steps/> useful.

*If they manage to strike a deal with KRA where they tax you straight from amazon and you just pick the goods from posta with no additional fees that'll be great. However, it means we'll probably go back to using "friends & family shipping" as our VAT and Duty rates will probably increase the cost of goods by almost 50% for most stuff. :(*
The biggest challenge with KRA is their (deliberate?) inconsistency. It seems like Duty always varies, depending on who processes the transaction. They need to have a publicly-accessible comprehensive lookup chart/database.
