went to check out the Orient special FET0H001B today, tried it on but found it less attractive...

1- black crown top seems fragile.. easily get scratch & reveal the silver base as its stainless steel
2- color too dull compare to the picture online

for the price MYR 780 my friend commented better get a seiko..

im really stuck now...

orient are entry level watches, Orient Star are up class and this yr model do offer hacking.
most Seiko and Orient at entry level do not hack.

@cloner do you want hacking?

found a decent piece there with no worries of shipping... but obviously they have charged in the shipping cost into their selling price

guys just wanna share my experience purchasing with Orient & shipito.. a very unpleasant one i may say..

- initially the watch purchase after discount was 301 USD
- as Orient does not accept direct international purchase the only way is to go through shipito as per Orients web site info
- after the 8.50usd deposit for new account, this fee that fee bla bla..
- total cost for a 301 USD watch came up to 128 USD
- total 429 USD

that's like hell RM400 for nothing... shishhh

I understand U are furious but I didn't get the summary.
cost of watch from OrientUSA = USD$301

Shipto fees breakdown
- account creation  US$8.50
- Shipping fees US$119.50!!!!!!!!!!!

not worth it cannot cancel order? Didn't someone method a cheaper alternative?
*
Patryn33

- account creation 8.50 *paid by paypal
- then your account will have a limit of spending $75
- either you upgrade your acc with more $$, or upload documents *ie Form duno wat 1569 need to sign infront of public notary etc bla bla just to get your limit raised 60%... the watch price is $301 !!!

Or
- you may add credit to your shipito acc, option displayed credit card / paypal / wire transfer
- tried using paypal but return message was *sorry service is unavailable, kindly use wire transfer

WHICH

they charge $16 + 4.3% on total money transfered

shipment $35

they charge a 4.3% + 8% on your total purchase amount as well...

honestly i lost count here... but when i clicked the total.. it sum up to USD $429 ........

& i did cancel the order.. $424 was refunded & they charge USD $5 on admin fee... duuh rclxub.gif rclxub.gif
