Shipping electronics to Ghana is not a good idea. Shipping basic items to Ghana is not cost effective either. Just bring cash to Ghana and buy everything new.
It’s a matter of choice. If you want to buy the same TV at double the price that up to you. My TV is here and working fine.
I shipped 14 boxes for the price of 1 TV here in Ghana 🇬🇭 and they were just in storage. Isn’t that cost effective?
@@kinzababe1
Actually, televisions in Ghana are less expensive. I've been in Ghana for 5 years now. I've bought tvs in the USA and Ghana. It's never cost effective to ship basic items to Ghana especially televisions and other 110AC electronics.
@@Shady_love233
Imports cost more. Buy other more local brands built for 220 AC
Maybe America but uk they take good care of it. But you pay.
I also shipped more stuff from Baltimore to Ghana because we are also coming home to the motherland. I just subscribed to your channel. Thank you so much for sharing
Thanks for subbing!
Don’t ship household appliances to Africa because it’s way cheaper
That was a smart move my sister!
Electronics prices in Ghana are pre-2015 prices, which means they’re exorbitantly very high. I found a Samsung TV in the US for $1,300 and with taxes about $1,506 which was an equivalent of 16,861 Cedis at the time. I came home and went to the electronics stores in Accra and that exact TV was selling for 49,999 Cedis. I came back and went straight to store to get it simply because I’ll save me about 30,000 Cedis give or take
With Digital Television these days, you don’t need to worry about NTSC or PAL regional settings anymore. If you get a reliable shipper, I say do the proper calculations and make your decision. You made the right decision sis
Really, no more Pal Or NTSC ??????
Thank you kinza babe for helping us to see things actually do make it to the motherland safe and tvs we’re not broken. I love your transparency. Helping those of us who haven’t made the move yet.
Thank you for watching I glad I could help 😊
Thank you ! ❤
Thank you for sharing.
Thank you for watching I really appreciate it 🙏🇬🇭🇬🇭
You have a right to your opinion dear no worries at least you being honest and that’s what we need.
Wow thank you so much for showing this much appreciation
Thank for watching !
Imports from the USA will always be expensive. I guess that big tv didn't work. Ghana has 220 AC the USA has 110 AC. A step down is needed for electronics.
I did not pay high duty prices my shipping company took care of clearing my boxes and It was door to door. I’m using a voltage regulator that I bought for Melcom and my TVs are still working. It was cost effective for me but it might not be for someone else. This is my experience ❤
@@kinzababe1
Okay, if that works for you.
So true
Not all U.S. electronics require 110-115 only. I have several items that are multi voltage like my Xbox series X for instance. I’ve used it in Gambia, Zambia and now Kenya and it’s still working great with no transformer.
🙏 thank you 🙏 some people but the wrong information out there and scared them from shipping items.
Kinza Babe your right, is good to ship your things to Ghana, enjoyed your self
Thank you for watching
Great video. Sister😃
Thank you my brother 🙏🙏
Sister am glad that u are resting in the Motherland Ghana 🇬🇭, am a Ghanaian leaving in USA by God's grace I have a view years ahead of me, I will join u, stay peace n enjoy
Thank you for your support 🙏
My Sister, I hope you have plenty of step-downs. If not you will burn your electronics up! As you know and many people have found out. the hard way. The power outlets are 220 volts in Ghana. The only thing that would ship to Ghana is a clothes dryer, they are already 220. Electronics and appliances are cheaper in Ghana, especially with the current exchange rate. Custom duties in Ghana are through the roof especially if you are shipping a car in. A friend wanted to ship his 2023 Lexus SUV, duties would have been $47,000! You fared well , but the horror stories at the port abound!
I will do another video on the cost of electronic and the voltage here in Ghana 🇬🇭. Read the other comments. Thank you for watching stay tuned .
Yeah,Africa has 220 Voltage just like it is today n Europe
Not all U.S. electronics require 110-115 only. I have several items that are multi voltage like my Xbox series X for instance. I’ve used it in Gambia, Zambia and now Kenya and it’s still working great with no transformer.
That is not correct electronics in Ghana are various expensive, and they're not high-quality electronics.. Ppl all know about steps down...
I hope you don’t think it’s strange that outside North America 🇺🇸 the electric ⚡️ voltage has different power supply especially being in Africa.
It’s just common sense to educate yourself about what’s happening outside what you might call your comfort zone.
Congratulations on moving to the motherland in Ghana I’m next I purchased land there as well looking forward on traveling there in the fall. Many blessings to you and yours 🇧🇧🇺🇸😊🇬🇭💐🥳👍🏽
It's a good idea to provide info inside the video or description. That's how you get subscribers.
Thank you for watching
Wow very nice house
Thank you for watching I appreciate it ❤
Welcome home
Enjoy your settlement
Thank you 🙏
Cats love boxes 😅
Yes they do! Thank you for watching 🙏
Be careful over there. "The grass isn't always greener on the otherside"
Thank you 🙏
Pessimist. Stay in your Oppressive captivity.
Why keep it ia secret? Just give a shout out to the company in florida!
It not a secret email for contact info.
This is what I want to do.when I leave Tanzania I’m going to go and count all my items and list them. Coming to Ghana Happy for you.😊
You got this!
What shipping company did you use? Your kittens are adorable
I used Black star shipping company but when you do a search you will not find it another company with similar names come up. To save the confusion just email me for the contact info. Email is in the description. Thank you 🙏 for watching and subscribing ❤
Please how do I reach out
Is the electrical wired 110 for your US appliances? Please be careful to not blow them up.😊
Thank you for watching. I got voltage stabilizer so my electronics is safe.
@@Shady_love233 it will be safe. I plan to ship two large tv’s myself to ghana .
Kinda Babe was your TV a smart TV? I want to know if it’s possible with high pricing of data.😊
Thank you for watching yes it’s a smart TV and the prices is higher in Ghana
So, did your US spec TV's work in Ghana and receive local broadcasts?
American TVs works in Ghana 🇬🇭 you just need a voltage regulator which I bought at Melcom
Does the American electrical voltage same as the one in Ghana. ? Are the plugs the same ? I cannot buy any American electronics and bring them with me to South Africa
All you need is a voltage regulator or a step down regulator for the circuit
Thanks for watching ❤
The voltage oh Ghana is 220V on 60 Hz. The US is 110V on 50Hz. You’d need a step down transformer to use US electronic products.
You need a voltage regulator please watch my other video explaining the voltage and with my TV playing here in Ghana 🇬🇭
I aways wondered what the result was after delivery and how it was delivered to the house.Thank you for this video
Glad it was helpful!
You can actually wire your house for 110 volts
Shipping things to Africa they have shops for everything
Yes but also had these things that I need and was way more more affordable than buying them again from Africa. This was my choice and if I had it to do all over again I would have even shipped the rest of my stuff I have in storage in America.
@@kinzababe1 ok i understand its because i know some one from America who didn't ship anything brought only his clothes,he bought everything in Africa but understand what saying thanks
Hi sister, great job I would like to know if you know anyone here in the uk that can do delivery Ghana to Uk. I do want to buy small things in Ghana which is about 2 or 3kg if you can help on this from someone you know. Many thanks
I don’t know anyone in UK the do shipping but I’ll ask. I’ll let you know. Thanks for watching 🙏
Was it easier for you to move from your home country to the US, or from the US to Ghana?
My home country is part of the US so I had no problem at all . Thank you for watching.
Hi will you talk about the cost, taxes, shipping co. Thank You
There is no taxes it was door to door everything including in the cost. There is to much factors that affect the cost.
How long did it take from start to finish and if you don’t mind sharing … what was your total cost?
What was the total cost and shipping time?
Thank you for watching. I don’t like to give cost online. It’s too much to factor the costs. What it cost me could be totally different for someone else. It took 6 weeks to reach Ghana. If you want more info please email me it is in the description.
How long did it take you to get your items?
It took about 6 weeks. Thank you for watching.
I have my belongings in storage in Fort Myers, does your contact cover that area? I am on my way back to the US from David Panama, then to Ghana. I will be shipping, so let me know more about your contact please.
Dm me at kinzaagency@yahoo.com for more info.
Our stuff are in a u-haul in Fort Lauderdale. We can share a 40-footer container and split the cost. It will be most cost-effective for both of us. Let me know.
Your things are very expensive, how long did it take to get your packages. This one company said using them it will take two months.
It was around six weeks from the time it left Tampa. That’s what he told me and that’s how long it took.
I didn't hear her share the cost. How much was it to ship the items?
Thanks for sharing sis I am learning from your experience. How did you package your TV's ?
Thanks for watching I am happy to know that someone is benefiting from my content. I both the boxes from U haul and I used bubble wrap. Then I wrapped it again in plastic wrap.
@kinzababe1 Thank you sis it's very helpful . I live in Minneapolis. There are few guys here who offer the same shipping services
I think you need to be mindful of voltage differences when you are shipping electronic gadgets from USA to Ghana. You would require a step down adapter.
@@donnbiggie Thank you so much
@@donnbiggieThank you so much for watching. My TVs are working great I got a voltage regulator from Melcom.
who did you use to send your things to Ghana?
Please email for contact information. Email is in the description 🙏
We love you fam
Thank you for watching I really appreciate it!
OMG if I live in Florida there is no way am living in Ghana, why would I live sunshine state.
Thank you 🙏 for sharing. Everyone has their own perspective.
She shipped bowls? 😳 You must have had a free ride on someone else's container.
Thank you 🙏 for watching
How much was the shipment and how long please?
Dm me for details about pricing. Kinzaagency@yahoo.com
I don’t have yahoo
A lot I have to say. Im from GA. I'd like to go there but I fear the language barrier for ONE. but yeah I rather SELL everything BEFORE leaving. And why is it higher in GHANA for a tv lol ??
The infrastructure is NOT better than AMERICA .. in my opinion .. if AFRICA, JAMAICA, NIGERIA and all those other regions infrastructure was better than America they would never feel the need to move here or make money here just to take it back to their hometown ..
See, we need to switch thats all. America has the infrastructure but bad leaders. Africa lacks infrastructure, NO IT DOESN'T ??? ok why are there poor areas in the WEALTHIEST country on the EARTH lmao .. that doesnt even make sense .. if africa was so rich not one location there should be poor or lacking .. period ..
Like I was saying, Africa has better freedom. Or does it? but yeah, I'd like to move but I want a shower head, running water, my own lot of land, shelter, solar power, etc. I've seen videos of ppl shower with buckets, it doesnt have to be that way when you can these things in other countries online .. but I digress..
Thank you for watching? I just want to say please visit the continent of Africa..
@@kinzababe1 yupp n I plan on it, but I don't want to pick the wrong location, thanks for responding
Put a stop to it,there are armed robbers watching u
Thank you 🙏
What's the contact info for the shipping?
Dm me kinzaagency@yahoo.com for contact information.

Thank you for watching! I am not a Gun person so I can’t answer that question. I don’t go hunting.

Hello good night, u just have to find a shipping company in ur state that ship internationally look up a few to get the best shipping rate… An get ready to grease the palms of a customs agent in Ghana too get your container there very money hungry!
Was it door to door ?
Yes it was door to door 🎉
You are lucky!
Shipping from St Thomas to SC every thing breakable was broken and they opened certain boxes thieved the content replacing it with cement ornaments.
The insurance wanted the receipt for every item. So I’m really glad that was a good experience for you.
