oh..

meaning the postman came ur house but noone was there to collect it, thus retention by poslaju, not custom

if anyone wanna buy or knows anyone who is looking for non grade infinite justice 1/100 please let me know ya^^

was just wondering, i received a miss call from customs (after googling the number 03- 87872704 it appeared as KL customs)

why would the customs call me? (i am expecting a parcel from amiami and on the tracking it says Arrived at inward OE/Receive item at OE. BUT the item costs only RM74)

^ probably they wanted you to open it up?

JIalat lor...
really kena custom tahan....
just received the call.....but how come?
i thought the parcel from amiami.jp has everything written on the box? (the price, the shipping and everything...it is definitely below RM500....duh, definitely below RM200 also....=_=)

the custom just main tembak randomly hold back the parcel ka?
*ISH VERY SAD AND FRUSTRATED*

They probably want you to open and check..... Anything other than tobacco and alcohol is tax free, if CIF is below RM500... fight for your rights...

^^ update us on the status.

harddisk>> will do. ^^

i asked pos laju to help and they said they wanted to charge RM49.50 =_=
oh well, i'll just go there and collect it. Definitely fighting for my rights if they want to charge me tax. (RM74...and they want to charge tax....*facepalm*)

^ the more I see it, the more I feared my current shipment gonna get stopped. Though they are not "toys" or figures, but it's costing close to RM600, excluding freight charges. *sweat*

^^ I wish I had one that passed through.... with more than RM500... Once bitten twice shy.... vow "kas_tam" will never get me again, luck holds for 2010...

my experience...mostly if u go can nego with them wan

^ went yesterday, no nego at all. He just punch the numbers away.

And your tax calculation?.... share share your experience for others...

^
necklace: amount + 10%
phone straps: (amount + 10%) + 5%
tabung wang: (amount + 10%) + 5%

I heard he said, "metal composition" might be cheaper or something woh. I also not sure. Anyhow, I think the taxable amount is on the items only, not inclusive of the freight? Unless he has divided the freight cost amongst the items and charge the tax on top of the final figure.

Added on June 23, 2010, 9:02 pmbro, wat is CIF? got any written instruction said below rm500 no need tax?

^ CIF = Item value + freight charges. Or it's called "landed cost" in another term.

No tax on RM500 and below is an agreeable amount, even the officer that attended to me at Kastam there agreed to it. I guess you have to refer to the taxation textbook in order to find out about it.

Should be available on major book stores.
