To all lyn member
Notice that International Seller selling things Cheaper than malaysia DEALER ** After convert malaysia RINGGIT for sure ** Guess is TAX Problem.. For example : Imported car lol...
Since latest Samsung TV has been released , would prefer to buy Samsung 9000 55" (UN55C9000) / (UA55C9000) Series through internet
Dealer Malaysia selling : 22-25k at LEAST
USA Dealer selling : 3-4k USD = 10k-13k , Unnegotiable Yet Any lyn member can Recommend any Online website that selling Electronic Stuff , Especially TV ?
Thanks u

well you risk the warranty and some TV may have different frequency on channel your TV may not receive local channel + I doubt there is warranty... also the risk of getting taxed...

What makes you think that using those UPS/DHL/FEDEX can bypass customs??  also, the risk of transporting such a fragile panel across the Atlantic would be very very high, and I believe you did not see how those courier employees handles their packages....

Local sammy, panny or other companies will not even repair stuff that they not sell. 110V vs 240V is a concern, u would need a proper transformer. If ur luck is bad item will be sent for JBE/SIRIM approval and item gets stuck there for ages and sometimes not approved. If taxed it is normally 26.5%. Weigh the pros and cons and decide. Believe it or not sets do develop problems.
