QUOTE(xEDynamics @ Mar 24 2011, 12:18 AM) 29.8K JPY (tax included)...u mean Malaysia custom tax ??? Of course you have to be wary of our Kastam and their thanks, i will check that link... If it's the usual 10% + 5% tax, then you will have to pay around RM170+ on tax. This post has been edited by Harddisk: Mar 24 2011, 12:54 AM |

QUOTE(eehtsitna @ Mar 28 2011, 10:38 AM) Just for the record, i received a parcel from Hong Kong 20 days after I place my order. The parcel was shipped using SAL and the best part is its free. I also received unsolicited letters / mails (and e-mails) too from time to time, for free.   |

^ 15.5% of RM700. Do the maths.
Is that just 1 item? If multiple items, maybe itemise them, probably some items are non-taxable? |

QUOTE(WSWai @ Mar 29 2011, 12:04 AM) But if need tax still need to pay the tax, right? The RM50 amount was the service charge PM. Tax have to pay separately, if I'm not mistaken. You can try your luck first by calling PM. Added on March 29, 2011, 12:20 am QUOTE(Reinforce_XI @ Mar 29 2011, 12:08 AM) Hi all just wanna ask a question for those experienced people here. Depends on your luck whether they picked and open up your parcel or not.http://www.1999.co.jp/eng/10137238 Will the item in the link above be confiscated by the our kastam due to being partial nude?

QUOTE(icarus88 @ Apr 4 2011, 01:45 PM) my HLJ shiping is SAL, and they provide tracking number as i post above.. Well, that depends on the 10% tax on your shipment going to be lower than the additional shipping cost or not, if you happen to split the shipment. and at the same time i have another order, small pack with no traking number.... guess this time is the parcel is big so HLJ treat this like.... im not sure Added on April 4, 2011, 1:49 pmstill hav quite a few small 1/700 ships to order from HLJ.... undecide to separate them or joint together coz sure over RM500 if the latter....

But when they happens to tax you, they include the shipping charges into the tax. Meaning if it's RM700, with 10%, that's RM70 of tax, not just tax on the item cost itself.

It's already over, what can I do?Added on April 7, 2011, 5:46 pm QUOTE(BeastX @ Apr 7 2011, 03:19 PM) Big parcel.... exceed SAL requirement.... will be posted as Registered SAL, which might be more expensive and slower than EMS (up to a certain weight) I think you meant SAL Parcel, right? SAL registered/non registered, dimensions are the same.This post has been edited by Harddisk: Apr 7 2011, 05:46 PM |

QUOTE(aKiSuSu @ Jul 30 2011, 06:28 PM) Oh yea, some update here. Where's your tracking number? Did you check?After my previous case with Mandarake that my paypal account has been banned by them due to dispute with missing items, now comes amiami. One of my Registered SAL parcel went missing the first time with AmiAmi so I contacted them and filed a dispute with Paypal, after awhile I got my money back. So recently one of the nendoroid BR STRG that I ordered with them got canceled without notice, I am suspecting AmiAmi black-listed my account...upset like shit atm |

QUOTE(Baboonation @ Dec 21 2017, 11:00 PM) Where do u guys usually buy your tools? I'm in KL for quite some time now, I went to all the popular shops like Gamers Arena, Litt Tak etc. All of them have nice kits, but less tools. There must be some shops out there that have an extensive library of paints, cutters, decals... Can recommend pls? Try Infinite Creation Workshop. Check their business hours. https://www.facebook.com/infinitecreationworkshop/ If you want Godhand, can try ATT: https://www.facebook.com/angeltrendtrading/ ImitationLiger liked this post
