Package Handling
The Shipping Fee for oversized items like TV, Loudspeakers etc will be calculated based on the volumetric weight multiplied by $8 that is (L x W x H / 166) x $8. This fee is applicable to AIR FREIGHT ALONE. - Not all packages received at Heroshe warehouse will be shipped to Nigeria. If a package is flagged, more info will be required from the customer in order to ship the package to Nigeria.
