Hi Guys, I contacted BBTS and according to them, they'll declare the exact value of the items being ordered in the shipment. Can any1 share with me your experience in purchasing tf stuff from BBTS such as packaging, timeliness and do they declare lower value that actual item shipped (as I'm concerned with custom tax for shipment > RM500)? Your feedback is much appreciated. Many thanks.

QUOTE(zachary22_77 @ Jun 15 2011, 02:10 PM) Bro, BBTS doesn't underdeclare value but they can mark the item as gift. They can't underdeclare value as it's illegal & they are a big business. Their packing is top notch, they use thick bubble wraps & pack the items nicely in big box. On timeliness, it depends on the shipping method you choose. They offer the normal non trackable USPS First Class Mail or trackable USPS Express Mail. I personally only used USPS Express Mail from BBTS & it takes around a week to arrive from USA. Thanks bro for the info. Do I need to request to mark as gift or will BBTS automatically mark as gift? So far, have you purchased anything with total value > RM500? I plan to make purchase > RM500 but not sure how to escape being taxed by custom in msia. Any advice?

QUOTE(zachary22_77 @ Jun 15 2011, 02:32 PM) There's a section in 'Account Settings' under 'Customs Declaration' where you can set all your orders to be declared as gifts. So far I've always kept my purchases under RM500 total including shipping to avoid Customs. Worked well I guess for purchases over RM500, we wait & see the taikuns of this forum to answer with their latest Clear Protector hauls  Noted, thanks bro for the advice. Any taikun here wanna share their experience of hauling from BBTS with total value > RM500? Any tax penalty when items arrived in M'sia?

QUOTE(Thunderclash @ Jun 20 2011, 04:12 PM) More pictures.     Quick review: ProsPlastic quality is pretty good for a third party product. When excessive force is exerted to twist the joints, there were no stressmarks or whatsoever. Gold chrome is almost the same color as the SOC chrome. Very well done. ConsPlastic is of a slightly different color compared to the SOC version. Not very obvious though. Other than that, not many flaws found. Pretty solid. Nice pics and review bro. Just a quick question. Does attaching the gold chrome wings seem to scrap off the chrome of SOC rodimus wings?

QUOTE(Thunderclash @ Jun 20 2011, 05:02 PM) Apparently attaching it didn't cause any scratches nor the chrome peeling off. A plus point.  Good to know that. Thanks.
