QUOTE(benny888 @ May 4 2011, 09:42 AM) That is provided he bring in for you. If he sent by post/courier you will still be subjected to customs examination and possible hold up. One trick you can use ask him just to send you the phone with an alternative box and all accessories opened up. In this way it will resemble a set not meant for resale. I use this when I bought a PDA ( worth US500) from ebay and same time under declared it at US300 - the unit I received I noticed was with Msian customs stamp, opened and checked but I need not pay a single sen extra
Added on May 4, 2011, 9:45 amVAT is applicable once you buy in UK irrespective where you wish it to be sent in UK. VAT is not necessary if set is directly exported out from UK. If you buy in UK and declared it at airport leaving the country, you can claim back the VAT paid. I have 2 children in London ( one working and another studying ) - they'd been buying stuffs for me from UK. Infact my daughter said she can buy for me if I can wait till year end when she plan to come back. ive been checking the prices around in UK but im not sure. how much of a VAT refund would i get back if i buy SGS2 in UK? am planing to go there next month to buy it >.< |

QUOTE(strictly @ May 4 2011, 01:02 PM) There's no way u can escape the tax. They even open up gift now. I've already asked my friend about it. His scenario was: He asked his friend in the state to buy an iphone for him. Send it back as gift. held by custom. and had to pay the tax and also the sirim permit. it was rm 215 that time. No chance. But sometimes if u're lucky, u can escape it. it's sort of like.. chance or luck == wouldnt want to bet on that. well i know u cant escape the tax. i would probably have to pay some when i get back from there... im just asking how much would i get back from the VAT coz i duno the pricing... |

QUOTE(oldKyoo @ May 8 2011, 05:14 PM) 200 is like just an estimation larh.... if u walk into it malls, sgp, or those so called "scratch-proof" might cost a wee bit over 100rm, they r quite a shark though are there any SGP screen protectors alreadi in the market for the SGII?
