Hey bro there's no tax imposed on you? Damn i'm still thinking hard if i should buy the Adidas Predator X from PDS cos it's selling very cheap now.. the only thing i'm worried is being taxed la

Sigh cannot think later leh.. cos it's not a small amount if really bad luck enough to kena taxed.. i would be buying the shoe more expensive than i can buy from other shops also leh.. aih but i've asked my cousin to check if SG is selling any at my budget.. if got i'll get from SG.. i really want the classic black color leh..

Can anyone who bought boots from PDS or other sites online share your experience here whether your items were taxed or not? Wanna see what are the odds on taxing boots bought online..

No use la if you check at Adidas stores cos the most they are only having a 10% discount here also.. should check on those sports shops as they tend to give more discounts, based on the owners' liking.. i want i want the Black Predator X!!!

Thanks soundstream for sharing your experience with us.. actually i can get 25% discount @ RM547 from a shop here in Ipoh as i know the owner and bought a few previous Preds from him.. but he only ordered the White/Yellow and he also tried to specially order the classic Black/Red for me but then he said can't get it.. then Giotto told me about PDS selling at £82.61 and i've calculated that it's only RM536 @ a 5.7 rate plus shipping, much cheaper!

Well the thing is i'm really worried that the item will get taxed after i heard my friend kena taxed on his jerseys bought from Kitbag and some parcels sent by his Aunt from US.. cos if kena tax, it might be 30% the max and then i would be stupid to buy the shoe at RM700 already.. but then now you said u bought boots twice n din get taxed.. is there anyone else who bought boots online? I'm worried they will tax my shoe now as it's around Xmas and New Year time..

Oh you're very lucky huh.. don't know why my friend so unlucky kena taxed on jersey sumore USD100!

I thought during festival time they know there will be alot of parcels sent here and there and that's when they wanna tax every item to get more money for the government from there haha.. however what you said does make sense too.. ermm now i feel like ordering tonight liao la haha.. damn still scared la.. RM700 if kena tax!

Guys, after much considerations i finally put my guts into purchasing the Adidas Predator X from PDS after listening to giotto's & soundstream's experiences and advices.. i'll just have to pray hard for the next 5-7 days that the item won't be taxed.. fingers crossed!

Haha super messi, would like to help you but i can't be bias as i've only worn the Adidas Predator for the past 10 years.. so i'll definitely say go for the Predator although i've never tried the other 2 haha.. anyway i know and has felt (by hands) that the AdiPure is damn comfortable with the good cushioning inside.. Nike, nahh i'm an avid fan of Adidas lolx.. anyway since u like Messi so much, why don't u go for the F50i TUNIT for the SPARK?

Haha welcome to the Predator FC! XD

Haha Fabricgas turned Diaby, you better prayed hard for me also.. else i'm gonna look for you if it kena tax! Haha cannot make that kinda of vow la.. my teammates will kill me if i can't score during friendly matches lolx

Yeahhh my Adidas Predator X has been dispatched! Can't wait for my New Year gift to arrive!

While i wait for my baby to endure the long journey, is there anyone who has any recommendations on what type of shoe polishes or stuffs that can help keep my Predator in very good shape for a very long time without losing the softness of the leather soon? I guess i'm gonna visit some shoe shops too and ask for advices and recommendations too

soundstream,

Sure definitely i'll do

I also polished my previous Preds with Aqua Stop, everytime before i play.. it seems to cover the leather with a protection layer so that to prevent more water from soaking in the leather while you play.. it really protected my Preds for sometime i guess but i'm trying to look for more better and more reliable protection now..

Eh you play alot on soft ground? That's only after raining usually.. but when it's a dry pitch, your XTRX suffers the most and the studs will break easily soon.. unless you're having a 2nd pair of FG boots there..

Haven't try yet.. dunno if the new panel designs will be better or the previous 12-panels is still better.. i have the Europass Gloria and it's kinda bouncy.. wow you're rich dude to get the RM320 all by yourself lolx

Expecting my Pred X to arrive tomorrow or this weekends.. fingers crossed!

Haha i thought you bought it by yourself tim.. i got the Europass Gloria at RM279 only from ALI.. check out my team's FB Group page over here

Yeah those RM300+ balls are the best to play with.. it's not painful when you head it and it does go where ever you put it to.. those 1st grade Europass and CL balls are all the same, just that the printings are different.. but this new Jabulani is totally different from the previous version liao.. really wanna try it out also

WHAT... THE... F***???
RM400++ to get the Adidas MI Predator X????
Please tell me this isn't true.....

Oi Diaby!!... tell us there's no such promotion!!!

My dad is a HSBC customer too.. really sh1t man if really can get the Pred X MI for only RM400+.. even if it's RM500+ it's also CHEAPPP... what?? A girl? Powerswerve?? She's doing it and giving her bf as a xmas gift izzit lolx

Haha damn i also feel like getting 1 Powerswerve MI if i have the funds..

Hehe thanks bro.. all those works were done by me alone, remembering and updating every match played..

Why suddenly got a TelurPuyol come out answer a question which is directed to Ballack geh.. you're Ballack meh?? Wahahaha

Haha yeah carlson096, we only play field friendlies on Sundays and futsal friendlies on Monday nights.. if there are competitions around, we might join also and had also won a couple of tourneys luckily hehe.. thanks for viewing and the team should appreciate me for what i've done to promote the team lolx

soundstream, yeah fast fast get the Adidas Pred X MI if the promotion is really true.. let me know when's the dateline too, i might even make one for myself if i'm too envy with yours later hahaha

Tengok itu yeong shui avatar also know la hahaha..

It's RM800+ but after 50% is RM400+ for the Powerswerve MI right? Quite ok what for a customized shoe.. The Powerswerve Power @ RM365 is not MI version izzit?

Haha bro bukankah sudah lepas date of promotion? DIGI until 30th November while HSBC until 31st December? But now January liao lorr bro lolx

After the 50% is how much exactly is the Powerswerve MI? Aih how come they don't do futsal shoes MI gehh.. i want my customized SALA!!!

It's just like you're donating RM15 to AIDS fund and you get a free shoelace lolx.. ish too bad it's Nike.. if Adidas has it i might put it on my Pred X haha

Nahh i dun like to mix Nike wit my genuine Pred stuff haha.. sumore the Pred shoelace is cool what.. got the Predator wordings there lolx!

Aih not yet arrive la bro.. Giotto @ Daiby also said might take longer than usual cos of the slow service of Pos Msia

oscar7,

I can safely confirm you in time that my Adidas Predator X has just arrived from ProDirectSoccer without any tax.. thanks to that giotto @ diabu and soundstream for their useful information and advices.. i finally got my long-waited classical Black/Red colorway Pred X at a very affordable price! (£93.56)

Damn im looking to borrow a DSLR to have a photo session with my new baby before sharing the pics with you guys here hahaha

Haha sure will do mate! So can't get your Powerswerve MI?

Hey guys, my friend's selling a brand new Nike Total 90 Laser II FG (Size UK7/US8) for RM300 (Retail is RM699).. anyone interested can PM me.. i'll show the pics when i get from him later

There's also a brand new Adidas Original Samba Clean White (Size UK7/US7 1/2) for RM200 (Retail is RM359)

Wow good for you bro.. so fast got the chance to try out the latest tech football.. dun think my team gonna fork out more money for another RM300 ball since our Europass Gloria is still in nice shape, even some said not so nice to kick liao as it's too bouncy

Sigh i can't imagine what if i shoot the Jabulani with my new Pred X..

Haha not only you need to look at the surrounding area, but also the skills level of the people who are going to kick the ball too lolx
