But darn... it took longer to reach your house from Sepang than from US to M'sia!!!? the main culprit that keeps us receiving late is still Pos Boleh I received a package yesterday Shipped 20/10 Custom cleared 26/10 Reached me 4/11  Pos Boleh.... Belah!  |

I made friends with 2 postmen who deliver around my area. I told them if no one's at home, don't just leave the parcel on the gate unattended.  One of them personally came to my house to deliver this one - my latest parcel  Added on November 6, 2009, 10:10 am QUOTE(jchong @ Nov 6 2009, 10:05 AM) Friends in kastam maybe?

Yup probably they didn't foresee the demand. Ha-ha, glad you managed to get in early and exploited the loop hole - 10x Van Helsing for $24.90 (w/o shipping) is dirt cheap! |
