I'm not sure whether that would still apply for Newegg 2013 Black Friday.

THis graphic card cost $349.99 USD on Black Friday.
GIGABYTE GV-N670OC-2GD GeForce GTX 670 (original Price is $399.99)
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx...N82E16814125423

That is $50 USD Saving.
But this saving is diminished with:
$25.75 USD (RM85) shipping from USA to MY
$35 USD (RM115.50) for 10% service charge
With this 2 alone, it already eats up the savings...
This is not included the Malaysia custom tax yet. (Probably min RM20 or might be non-dutiable).

From this lowyat posts:
https://forum.lowyat.net/topic/841985

It says computer parts are non-dutiable, but somehow newegg malaysia staff says there are some that are applied unless that article is outdated.

You have to buy the right stuff in Black Friday sales. Not everything is on sale and not everything is jaw dropping prices.

For example I bought a G.Skill Ripjaws 8GB x2 rams during the sale for USD44. Normal price now is USD134. Last year normal price was much higher. This ram from last year until now, nothing can beat the price + delivery I paid for and I think the price I paid can even beat next year normal prices.

This year will be the year for HDD and SSD for sure. I won't be surprise to see 128GB SSD for USD40 or 256GB for USD70. For comparison, last year 120GB SSD cheapest was USD70 but very limited. Newer SSD tech + bigger capacity launches will push the smaller SSD to go for clearance. While last year we see 512GB, this year already will have 1GB SSD. So those 128/256 might see some deep sale for clearance sake.

Black Friday is NOT for new item launches. Latest GPU, CPU etc will not get a big price cut as these are still popular. But older models which are being cleared off in bulk will be the target.

NewEgg Malaysia new business plan:

They decide what to buy, not you. They have offer for Nexus 7 2nd Generation. Other than that, I don't see their relevance since Zotac comes in Malaysia.

RAMs? Wait for Intel to adopt DDR4 and Steamroller APU use GDDR5. Then say goodbye to overpriced DDR3 RAMs.

USD to MYR = USD1 : MYR3.29 (Newegg Malaysia sets it to MYR3.5)
Basically already includes their 10% service charge + bank charges. 3.5 - 3.29 = 0.21%

It would be better for them to set it to MYR3.3 to gain more buyers.

Newegg Malaysia Sales Tax (Duty Tax + Sales Tax)
PowerSupply / UPS (10%)
CPU Coolers / Fans (10%)
headphones / earphones (5% + 10%)
Tablets-Cellphones Case & Covers (20% + 10%)
Tablets-Cellphones Screen Protector (10%)
Cables (15%)
Jewelry (10%)


Shipping Handling Fee (West/East Malaysia)
Processor (RM25 / RM40) = USD7.6/ 12.16
RAM (25 / 40) = USD7.6/ 12.16
SSD HDD (25 /40) = USD7.6/ 12.16
Motheboard ATX (85/100) = USD25.84/ 30.4
Motherboard ITX (55/70) = USD16.72/ 21.28
Graphics Card (85/100) = USD25.84/ 30.4
Mouse/Mouse Pad (39/59) = USD11.85/ 17.93
keyboard (60/80) = USD18.24/ 24.32

Below are some of the highlights we have changed:

1) There would no longer be a 10% service charge on all products.

2) A new tab highlighting the brochure for Newegg Malaysia is in place. So, do give it a try.

3) The currency would be peg at RM 3.5 to a dollar at present.

4) A fix shipping fee would be standardized for all items listed in the shipping and handling tab.

5) Be advised, there is a new tab for items taxable by the Malaysian Custom for your references. So, we encourage you to check them out frequently. Taxable items ie. PSU or coolers.

6) At present, we have two payment method which is PayPal and bank transfer. Customers who wish to pay through PayPal would be charged 5% extra for PayPal services. As such, we encourage our customers to pay through bank transfer to avoid the extra charges.

7) We are updating our FAQ, a shipping list for weight calculation and examples of doing a product calculation. We are also updating on several company policies which would be updated in the FAQ ie. the 30 days policy.


* Effective immediately from September 12, 2013.

heh ASUS as usual, my rule of buying from Newegg is simple really

"if you cant find it in Msia but available in Newegg, get it"

those easier to find like ASUS, Giga, MSI ill usually go local, easier to deal warranty too. but if lets say Powercolor, HIS or EVGA... whistling.gif

no brainer, buy it if you think its worth it
