Sounds like you bought the seagate 8th external one?
Probably the cheapest one yet there

I've got a friend working in sg
What's the cheapest courier service he can use to ship item to west msia?

got friend work there and back KL quite frequent de. use that gift voucher still consider above 125 threshold?

Seagate 8Tb but the IronWolf internal ones for use in NAS (4 of them)

I have a USD debit card so don't need to worry about the bank conversion rate

Should be eligible, as long as above that limit.

Ironwolf got 3 year warranty right
Saw mkbhd unboxing a boxload of those 10tb ones
You can still claim international warranty, yes?

Which bank did you apply for the USD debit card?
I'm always checking the visa calculator + 2% bank charges to estimate actual price

shopee will ensure satisfaction b4 release money to seller? also the gift card can combine 1?

Yes
You basically just redeem the giftcard codes and they're added to your account

Yeah, 3yr international warranty.

I personally use Lloyds and HSBC offshore - I think Citigold you can link to USD account too but haven't tried yet / checked the charges

Can anyone apply for llyods/hdsc offshore cc?
I'm thinking of getting one since there's some items from certain site that I can't purchase because their payment processing service rejects msian issued credit cards

As long as deposit is enough you can, however the minimums can be quite high. And it's a Debit not credit card

Since a few months ago Lloyds does charge a transaction fee though - they never used to before. I'm sure there's other options out there though for USD denominated cards

What's the minimum value to load into the debit card? Sounds like a lot
What's the conversion rate if I start depositing?
Same as forex rate

Lloyds is something like 30K USD IIRC. Obviously not worth it for purchasing on Amazon alone (especially now that they started charging for USD transactions!) I had a debit card with them for years so seemed logical to use that rather than Malaysian cards. This is a normal offshore bank account with debit card not one of those pre-loaded cards, I'm sure there's better options available if the aim is just to avoid the conversions charge (although conversion RM > USD will have to be paid somewhere)

wow 30k?
Lucky me have RBC US debit

Hi guys, I'm planning to buy an Asus ROG gaming laptop from US, is that recommended by you guys? Should I ship it to SG, or just use https://www.ezipoz.my.post/ instead?
I wonder about the kastam charges and etc.. ><

That's definitely above my paycheck, any other usb debit card with lower deposit?

How did you register for that?

Sure not just buying it locally like lazada? Looks cheaper here

Guys, looks like amazon prime coming to Sg

Do you think they'll reach msia?

I'm sure there's prepaid cards available but then you'd still have to fund those I guess which would also incur a currency conversion somewhere
