if only i had 1k to part with.
wouldnt mind buying that.
thats like really really a limited edition item.

wear and keep also got
rarer and more fave one keep la.
i guess depends on the person actually.

acabugs is my friend and is 100% reliable

i got the switzerland home also that has the dual layer mesh i think.
similiar right?

actually the value of your total shipment seems quite low.
i believe kitbag auto-upgraded your shipment thats why u got the UPS option.

anyway back to the topic, the amount of your shipment and the weight of your shipment seems pretty low.
so i think the best option would be for you to go to the UPS office and check out the customs form for yourself.
make sure you read the details on being taxed.

rm209 is not alot. they do charge rm50 for their handling fee for paying the customs tax for you first.
i believe another guy had a problem similiar to this and he went to sort it out at the office, and got off without paying.
cant remember exactly what happend.
so just check the form, dont worry cos they have everything in black and white.

hmmmmm how can they refuse to give it to you?
they are claiming to charge u for something but no proof of it?
that's conmen.
everything need proof of purchase - receipt.

the invoice of what?

yes there is a customs form that will show you the amount being taxed.
the breakdown of your shipment value + insurance value + shipping value.
then u can see what made the total be over rm500.

about the issue of the shipping charges, this one u should try to talk to kitbag.
UPS just handles kitbags shipments.
so u tell kitbag that you wanted the normal shipping and now u have to pay for tax because they used UPS for your shipment.

i dont think what catergory matters. cos jerseys will kena 30%.
thus your CIF (which means consignment + insurance + freight) is rm577.51.
the 30% is rm173 + the service charge of rm50 = rm223.
which is right isnt it?

one thing to note is that UPS charges kitbag varying from different factors such as weight, freight value and maybe time. not sure exactly.
but when you pay kitbag, it's already a discounted shipping price.
but UPS may charge kitbag differently. so that is the amount stated on their airway bill (yours being rm222.30)
your case is really unique being so low in value and weight but so high in shipping charges.

so i think it's wrong to assume that the freight charges will be the same as on the invoice issued by kitbag.
cos they are just giving us value for money.
i do alot of kitbag shipments and havent kena before.

as shown by odieseven, you can see that the shipment was a time-value shipment.
being guaranteed to arrive by a certain time, thus being more expensive.
most likely yours was similiar.
best thing you can do is complain to kitbag and tell them that you didnt wanna use UPS in the first place.
and now that they did it for you, you kena taxed.

but wheres the lines?

yeah i also noticed that the last few shipments of mine, the freight value is quite low like yours - around rm60.
i also use UPS express shipping option.
so duno why he kena so painful.

in malaysia not worth the risk of using royal mail.
it's not actually royal mail's fault, just the stupid pos malaysia

happy birthday dude!

well there are many factors that come into play when they put pricing for the jersey.
cost of rental for the shop, workers, overheads, shipping, printing, marketing, royalties ......
the list can go on and on. that's why the jerseys are overpriced.

i'd think that the real cost of producing a jersey would be around maybe rm50?
quality control is also there. rejected ones need to be paid for right?
so that is also factored into the cost being charged to the customer.

anyways where did u find the good shop?
they seem to have a good range of jerseys.
u should share share

zomfg what is that?

the 3star jersey?

how did u ship four of those?!!!!!!

didnt shipping cost u a bomb?
haha how u shipped it over?
