Bro, before proceeding further on the discussion, please bear in mind what we share here is tax information, ie prudent spending within the limits of the law, and NOT how to avoid taxes etc. If its taxable, it has to be tazed. Simple as that. But ya i know where you are coming from, as in you wanna know how to be prudent and stay within the legal limit.
You can check the Customs website for more information on different taxes applied to different goods. You will know from your own enclosures above what section you are being charged with. Follow that and you will be able to find an appendix for all taxable items in Malaysia.
I have shared the link earlier (not sure in this thread or an older thread) but anyway its not too difficult. You can browse the appendix which lists all taxable items etc. Anyway to cut the story short, i do not think boots / gloves fall in the same class as jerseys / clothings, which may explain your friend's case (I may be wrong - please check). Another could be some sites do intentionally lower the amount on the customs declaration forms to stay below the limit. Sites like Subside do that on request too.
On the VAT and discount issue, it is for buyers to actively mail the sellers to get them to send a correct invoice. You should always check the invoice to ensure they reflect the true amount you have paid. Some sites require you to specifically request for removal of VAT for being oversaes, if not they will just charge you (ala the old Subside). It is obvious the officers are in their right to tax you based on the amount reflected in the invoice accompanying the parcel. Any discounts etc if not reflected, cannot be taken into account.
Thanks for the explaination. Will definitely check out the Customs website for more info..You can check the Customs website for more information on different taxes applied to different goods.

I just want to know how to spend prudently within the limits of the law, not to evade it
Now im kinda confused regarding the VAT thingy here. From my knowledge, VAT is only applicable to European countries right? So let's say in future, if i were to order online from UK again can i request them not to charge VAT or i still have to pay VAT but can request to remove it from the invoice?

i believe that they put the VAT included value on your invoice so that it's covered by (a higher) insurance value, just in case it gets lost.
the customs will tax you according to your invoice.
so whatever shown there will be used for calculations.
so if your invoice is wrong, then u should complain to newcastle's shop issit?
Not sure whether i can claim back if i get the correct invoice from NUFC shop. There is no absolute chance right?the customs will tax you according to your invoice.
