I asked my family member in London to buy some designer hand bags and courier it to me in Malaysia. May I know:
1) The recommended courier company. 2) How do they charge the courier fee for London to my home address in Puchong ? 3) Will there be any issue or tax with the Malaysian custom for lady's designer hang bags like Gucci, LV etc ? Thank you. |

QUOTE(solsekuin44 @ Jul 31 2010, 10:38 AM) Right? I was surprised knowing that they do reply asap I'm not sure whether it is still worth it to buy the designer handbag in London judging from the high logistic cost and taxes.  So, you are going to buy handbags yeah? Share with us here.. By the way, 20% import duty + 10% sales tax = 32% total ? 10% sales tax is calculated on the total sum after 20% import duty or before import duty ? |

QUOTE(StrawberryGirL @ Jul 31 2010, 12:05 PM) for your information above, i guess is after 20% import duty. It's 20% + 10%. Not sure the 10% sales tax is base on after duty price or before duty price though.so far, i didn't tried purchase bag at UK website before so i do not know how there gonna charge the taxes  for US, last time before i start my spree, i forget to declare my item in to lower then RM 500 So i kena tax by custom for my 2 coach bag and a victoria secret bag which is cost me RM 260+  Which forwarders your are using in UK ? My family member is buying directly from the boutique in London and courier it over to Malaysia. QUOTE(solsekuin44 @ Jul 31 2010, 12:24 PM) I don't know too.. I haven't found a place to buy cheaper bags, takut fake lagi.. Hehe.. For Gucci or LV, my sis told me Paris is cheapest.Is it worth buying bags from US?  How many percent cheaper than in Msia? |
