Any order exceeded RM500 will kena tax, this was my experience with online shopping delivering from overseas.

HI..was wondering, if the purchased item is below rm500, we do not pay anything (custom tax n bla bla) extra charges right? the items will be delivered to mailing address, right?

reason I ask, wanted to buy something from ASOS (first time buyer) and it says FREE DELIVERY if total purchase over GBP30. From your experience, what is the limit amount in GBP (I know the amount fluctuate) so that I will not be born by the custom tax or whatnot.

Many thanks in advance.

I was indeed slapped with a customs tax. I believe it was because the amount was huge (over RM900) asos.com decided to deliver to me via expedited shipping method which has caught customs’ attention, just like any other shipment delivered by Fedex or DHL.

Oh well, lesson learned.

Hi,

how much the total purchase you paid in GBP? cos I want to make sure I did not exceed that limit.

Many thanks.

Made a purchase totalling £82.95 = rm446++, custom hold and slap on rm300++ in freight, so my total CIF is more than Rm500.

Now aramex is asking for rm100+ payment sst and their service charge.

I just don't understand how they are charging me tax on amount that wasn't spent. Has anyone experienced this before?

OH MY GOD!!!!...CIF alone could cost more than the item itself. Hmmm...I think I should limit my item below than GBP50.

Thanks for the reply
