Added on July 3, 2012, 11:28 pmYou will need to use Buyforme (HopShopGo) or Assisted purchase (Shipto.com) to preorder Nexus from Malaysia.

I check out shipto.com Assisted purchase and they charge 4.3% on paypal or credit card and then 8% commission. So the total is 12.3% where as HopShopGo charge 10% flat rate for personal item and 7% on prime reward item.

I check shipto.com shipping charges is pretty expensive about USD81 for 1kg. HopShopGo to Malaysia first 0.5Kg is about USD20.75 and every additional 0.5kg is USD3.25 and insurance is .065% of the value of purchase.

I would go with HopShopGo as it is a Paypal company.

just my 2 sen worth.

Thanks for your input.

Somemore, I re-read their assisted purchase terms and it seem they only can help purchasing only the buy now item at ebay. The price at ebay alone is damn high as majority of the seller is targeting buyer from outside USA. Need to buy from google directly.
Will be digging on HopShopGo more later

I used shipito.com
U can buy yourself if you had credit card (malaysia). Register at google check out: checkout.google.com/
I manage to purchase using this method using my Malaysia credit card and shipping address is my Shipito address Suite #

Then U no need to pay those Buyforme or assisted purchased.

WOW... I would have save myself USD24.90 if I had read this before my BuyForMe. HopShopGo also provide me a US shipping address. Great tip.

jackdon

so u ordered 1 for yourself? what is the final cost?

Yea. I ordered 1 myself...Do check out earlier post where I posted a screenshot on my order.
Final cost? Not sure yet.. Postage will cause me USD60 using USPS Priority with insurance. USPS is the only courrier service that will have more chances to escape tax in Thailand.

I choose Oregon because tax free saving more than extra shipping fee.

U do take note in order to use Shipito.com, U need to get your account verify to 70%. Also they will charge USD8.5 if U not sign up for their annual membership.

I never thought can use malaysian credit card to buy device from play store
Is it ok paying to google play with a proxy? Or is there any other way you get to access google play?

so tempted with nexus 7... will wait for it to be launched here.. i think it be launched here early august...

The Nexus 7 Has Surprisingly Bad Display Ghosting - Just Take A Look At These Photos

I think the shipping must be in approved country like US AFAIK. Proxy is just a way of fooling google play that the originating address is in US so if you have a ship to US address then it should not be a problem. Which is why there are services like HopShopGo and Shipto.

jackdon

no offence, but i think in this case, you're better off joining to bulk purchase instead.

i really hope google can find a way to make the black bar at the bootom of the screen dissapear...i found its rather disturbing when playing games...

You already have a Nexus 7?

not yet bro, , i just saw a demo on utube, i saw the black bar at the bottom even when playing games...feel its will be accidently push in high intense screen touching games...

Anyone want to start bulk sale? The only ones left charges RM888 for 8gb, compared to another one (however slot is full) RM740 only.

I'll rather wait for AP set.
Or even official,If it ever come here
