Dont worry mate, earlier I didnt have a stake in this, but as you can see in this one, I have also still a stake, plus this shipment has a considerably higher value, something Im paying extra attention to.

Thank you so much havocx for helping us =)

No worries maam, glad to be of service notworthy.gif Gotta 'belanja' my friend when he comes back smile.gif

Have you tired looking at VsHub?

I'm not from VsHub but just thought if it lowers the shipping cost considerably, i might jump in and buy 1 Kindle too! =)

Blaming it on a bad day that's not getting any better icon_rolleyes.gif . Am not using forwarding companies especially one that ive not known of before and does not look to represent their exact methods for shipping and the process they use. Ive got a friend to do that back in the US, him and good ole DHL or Fedex, cuz of their name, rep and package/customs/tax handling experience.

Heya guys just thought I'd put in an update, got a call just now from my friend, here are the things that has arrived at his address at this time or that he had walked in to purchase earlier (*Special Bulk only) cool2.gif

3 x DM 3RB

2 x 2DM



Looking at the tracking numbers, today's shipment ( US 28th October, perhaps by 3am our time on 29th October ) should get us

1 x ASUS N61JQ-XV1 16-Inch Versatile Entertainment Laptop (Dark Brown)
2 x Kindle Leather Cover, Chocolate Brown (Fits 6" Display, Latest Generation Kindle)


Once that reaches, that would mean all the high value items would have reached. rclxm9.gif

We still would need to be waiting for the rest of the items to arrive however sad.gif
These are the items sold in Amazon but by 3rd party vendors.
Delivery estimated dates are as below :

Nov 3rd 2010
1 x CaseCrown Amazon Kindle 3 (Latest Generation) Genuine Leather Premium Case with Multiple Compartments (Pink)
3 x CaseCrown Amazon Kindle 3 (Latest Generation) Genuine Leather Premium Case with Multiple Compartments (Black)
1 x CaseCrown Amazon Kindle 3 (Latest Generation) Genuine Leather Premium Case with Multiple Compartments (Red)
1 x rooCase 3n1 Folio (Black) Leather Case with LED Clip-On Book Light and Earbud for Amazon Kindle Wireless Reading Device
2 x CrazyOnDigital Kindle 3G 3rd Generation 3 AntiGlare Screen Protectors


Nov 4th 2010
1 x Belkin Pleated Kindle Sleeve (Fits 6" Display, 2nd Generation Kindle) Plum - Final Item

Working on that, just to let you know after the call from him, was told that he would not be available to pick up the item on the 4th as he has a meeting,
he'll be working from home on the 5th and will be available to wait for the attempt of redelivery.
Once everything is with him, he'll help pack everything up in one go and go off to Fedex or DHL to have them sent to us.
Will update you guys via PM once I get those details nod.gif

Right then, let me know if there's any further queries, there's still time to add to your orders but lets try and get only Amazon specific items if possible to cut down on the wait time,
would want everything ready to be shipped out by 5th October ! rclxm9.gif

Folks on ETA for all items looks to be at max, Nov 12th. At this time, all Kindle's, Laptops and Wallets are at the US address.
We're only awaiting for some remaining accessories and it can be shipped out.
Unless of course you want your Kindle's first, i can ship those out earlier but then again, the total cost may be higher nod.gif

For yet again Lack of Better Words.

Heh after waiting for 4 hours at Customs in Subang today to clarify and work out documents finally the shipment is released with me having to only pay a little extra. Apparently DHL in US still were in their Halloween Holiday spirit and wrongly calculated on the final shipping duties and taxes hence causing the delay and the confusion here. Had it all been done better on their end, all of us could have received the items since Monday 8th November, the day it touched down at Customs in Subang Airport.

Feast your eyes on 33KG's worth of shipment. drool.gif

Okie at this time however, the items are at home with my wife, ive headed back out to office to clear my work after 'disappearing' for 4 hours just now. I estimate to only be back by 1130pm tonight. Hopefully if you dont mind, ill start with the COD's tommorow, you guys will still be able to enjoy your purchases over the weekend nod.gif

This like to be an amazing end to another successful bulk, for those still interested please let me know and Ill consider if Ill do another Bulk, this time perhaps Ill even add orders for other stuff from Amazon too thumbup.gif

Yes, it can. Perhaps if you can start on the first post, you'll find the details there. Else you can visit Amazon.com.
The Kindle by far is the BEST ebook reader out there so far, in terms of price, what it can read, weight and in short...everything else! smile.gif

Hmm pretty quiet, arranged some COD today for the Kindle, probably everyone is tinkering with it now, dont forget to share your thoughts ya.
Since we're on the Kindle topic, thought I'd share with some of you how the Kandle for Kindle would look like attached to the official Kindle Cover smile.gif

No worries buddy, glad to help, let me know if there's anything else I can help you with in the future. nod.gif That is if im still doing my bulk for Amazon.

QUOTE(mileseven @ Nov 17 2010, 09:44 AM)
yah, got everything from havocx, need to specially thank him when he offer to split and share the unforeseen cost of bigger box packing of my notebook by amazon when shipping back here. he is a very trustworthy person. Nice bulking with him, will bulk again with him many time in the future. smile.gif
*
Yep, that was a suprise to me too, the extra large box, didnt think Amazon would be packing it in something so big. But its all good though, packing your laptop in the larger box guarantees that the inner main Laptop box is free from Dents and Scratches. If I was in the US and receiving that extra large box I would be REALLY happy. Shipping it back to Malaysia though, with a box as large as that, ultimately made a 3.5 kg laptop be calculated as a whooping 10.3KG's! Yowza.

Glad youre enjoying your laptop, really wished I could be there with you when youre opening it, must be a real beauty, 16" with Led screen. drool.gif

Still have time to squeeze in to this Bulk Order, Kindle's getting harder to get because of demand for Christmas, also as Im trying to get ahead of those shipping back their Christmas gifts and all that Im trying to get this bulk in as soon as possible. Details sent to you via PM, let me know if you have any further questions, I suggest directly sending me an SMS via the numbers i sent to you. nod.gif

Dear good sir. Interested in 'tumpang' a kindle leather cover. Can you pm me the price of the normal and lighted one. Thanks.

Dear good man, have already updated you the details in PM, unfortunately may not be able to cut it on the 3rd bulk as that's already ordered and is on its way to KL. Placed the order from Amazon on the 20th and it should be in KL by 1st Nov, quick huh smile.gif

If youre still looking out for it and if there's enough folks looking for one, I might just do a fourth bulk, its not worth it for you for me just to order 1 unit since the cost is prohibitive. Im not making money out of the bulk, I do it only to carry back some of my personal stuff from the US at a shared rate smile.gif

Let me know if youre still interested for Bulk 4.

QUOTE(shy8629 @ Nov 22 2010, 07:14 PM)

Picked up my 2nd Kindle today at the post office today! Was worried at first looking at some dented corners of the outer box but inside was several more layers including the original box to open which made the Kindle extra safe!  thumbup.gif 

I'm using it right now with no problem. Great job again from havocx!  rclxms.gif

Now considering for some Amazon orders with havocx...err when is the closing date for this 3rd bulk? Cheers!  biggrin.gif
*
Awesome stuff youve got there bro, now both you and wifey has one Kindle each smile.gif Glad you like the packaging!
Unfortunately for the 3rd bulk, the orders already been made and its now on its way to my colleagues address, today is the last shipment thats supposed to come in after which ill have it sent back home. Am in HK at this time so may not have time to handle new orders, the 3rd Bulk is already on its way.

If youre still interested let me know though via PM, i may just organise a 4th Bulk and get your stuff and anyone else who's interested in via the next shipment. Just let me know and ill put you in the interested list nod.gif Glad you find my quotes very reasonable, told ya Im not in it for profit nod.gif

That's not quite true, we actually can, as you can see from the scores of folks getting the Kindle's. There's also other sources of how books can be placed on the Kindle such as Project Guttenberg and the like.
Kindle with its wide range of support of formats will also allow you to view other types of prints, such as .mobi files and .pdf's notworthy.gif
So yep while officially we cant purchase Kindle and Kindle books here, there are legal ways to do so smile.gif

havocx, do you have any pics of the Kindle 3 in graphite inside the official covers of various colors? Please and thanks happy.gif"

Heya buddy, sure thing!
This here is a scaled down picture, maybe not so good quality of my buddies Kindle 6" in red within its covers. Its placed next to a 9.7" Kindle i just COD'ed with Mizi earlier in the office today.
One is a picture of it opened with the Kindle DX on top while the other is it closed. Contrast may not be so cool since its taken with an iPhone 4 and the carry bag is also red.
Will try to get better pictures later.
I personally love the Burnt Orange colour smile.gif

For more official photo's taken from Amazon



» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «


You will see and from my experience with at least 3 covers, why I prefer the official one.
The hinges help lock the Kindle in place.



» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «


That alone takes the cake since there is no unsightly extras on the Kindle when youre reading.
Next the soft felt cushion on a hard backing gives it the protection i need within a Leather case.
Finally, it makes the Kindle really REALLY feel like a true book.
I missed that with my other casings earlier, having the Kindle cover makes reading the Kindle with the book feel complete smile.gif
The 6" Kindle is really super nice and super light but being small sometimes you dont feel 'puas' reading until you get to hold it like below.
The official cover not having stuff drapped all over and around it also means that you dont have to content with elastics and flaps covering the Kindle screen while you read.

Notice the flap here ? I personally hate it when things get in the way, I also dont like to see elastics around my screen, i prefer to either use the Kindle
just on its own or with the official covers. And no i dont work for Amazon, i just can see the logic of why they chose the Official Casing as the Official one (and milking us on the price sad.gif )

user posted imageuser posted image

I fear that after time the flap may just remain covering the main face of the Kindle even when its opened. Amazon's official Kindle cover on the other hand does not have such issues smile.gif
Pictured below is the official cover with light by Amazon. Notice no unsightly elastics or flaps ? smile.gif

Hope these helps wink.gif
