So I finally took the dive and decided to get custom earphones..

This; however, means that I had to get an ear impression - and I have to ship it to the manufacturer, which in this case is in China (not even sure Mainland or not - where the hell is Zhuhai? ).

I need help on how to go about doing this.


I'm aware PosLaju has international shipping services offered too, yes? At least, that's what I saw on their website.

Although for the few times I've used PosLaju (both to post and when receiving parcels) they were reliable and I have absolutely no complains, I'm not so sure when it comes to the international scene. I'm probably willing to pay a bit more and have an ease of mind and use other courier services (i.e DHL, FedEx).

But I have no idea how to ship via DHL/FedEx, really.. I know for PosLaju you have to just fill up a form and submit the parcel at a PosLaju counter, but how does it work for FedEx?

Any help/suggestion/advice is greatly appreciated. I'm very excited for my custom built monitors, and I want everything to be as smooth-sailing as possible.

Use skynet!!!huhuhu...

I have used Pos Laju to send something to my Friend In Philippines.

Zhuhai is at Guangdong

you Can refer to Google Map

So i think you Should use Poslaju if you want to Cheapness and to use Fedex and so on if u want Reliability and Security.

As For Sending using Fedex or so on, i think you just have to go to their Center and fill in some forms?

Also if you want even cheaper rates you can Use Pos Daftar but it takes longer to arrive, like 1 week like that... But its very very cheap

I was thinking of using FedEx for their reliability and how fast they can ship, but god..navigating around the site and even trying to register for an account just to ship is so damn hard. Even then, there are so many steps to shipping.

I might just use PosLaju..this really is because I can easily just go to a nearby post office and drop my package off. Having to request for a pickup or to travel to FedEx's building is just blah.

So far I am seeing International PosLaju and Pospriority Express as options.. Not sure what's the difference. >_>

Yo boss, I think you can ask bahathir, he's done it for quite a number of time if I'm not mistaken.

Alright, thanks for the tip.

No prob bro, getting UM mage izzit?

Yeah..

Not recommended, the service is the worst ever i've experienced..

Gd stuff man, after you got the quote for the price including shipping, can you PM me as well, might want to grab one as well if I hv the moolah~ then may be we can share the shipping charge

just use poslaju..the malaysian carrier would be by poslaju, but for international shipping, the carrier (from malaysia to overseas) normally fedex/dhl and some by pos malaysia. then once reach to the country, the carrier will be the local post company. as far as the tracking is concern, using poslaju wont be a problem. but for posdaftar tracking will be a bit lengthy and tedious. you can check the posdaftar rate based on weight at :

Posdaftar is RM36 I think, for 0.5kg parcels.. But it takes 13 days to reach.

Poslaju is RM63 but takes only 3 - 5 days to reach.. I think I'll be settling for Poslaju. It may be more costly, but I don't want to wait that long.


And I think you might be a bit late, cause I'm already going to ship out the impressions tomorrow..

Thanks for this explanation, very helpful! I'll be using Poslaju, Posdaftar takes way too long.

you can try asking the ppl at Boxes Etc.. they can give you the recommendations you need, plus if you go through them you can ask them to pack your item up nicely for you

Haha alrite, looks like I'm tad late, gotta stick with my headphones for the time being xD Gd luck boss.

Hi hi....

The best for reliability is international courier company but the price will be main concern.

What are you sending, PM me and will help you out...

No need to go to anywhere, international courier company will pick up from yr place.. FOC
