if u buy and personally bring it over,
it should not be taxed
however, if you shipping,
there will be problem,
custom might not let you pass
but this i cannot confirm whether is true or not

they assembly at china, how can they not ship from there?

i honestly cannot be sure about this
u may want to ask at sager thread as i believe most of them purchase their laptop online from murco asia
beware if you make the purchase from Ebay, u need to bear the custom fee if there is any...
from my experience, purchase item from ebay is really depends on luck one
apart from authenticity and quality, u dunno if the custom will tear out and check what is inside..

same thing like every item i bought was stamped "gift" on the envelop...

got a letter of declaration attached one ler...
that one sure no worries de la...even custom check also have to let pass..
under GNU license de~

no,sorry but to say u cant
do u understand how ebay seller operates?
Amazon is different thing, yes some of the price are really tempting...
but alas, mostly cannot ship to malaysia~

how ah??
courier to US address and get the courier company to pick up from there?
