It's normally 10% right? If kena taxed, will it bring any trouble to you? I will reconsider that if it's too troublesome for you  biggrin.gif

Depend on what you want to buy. If too heavy then you are paying most of the shipping cost. Also for the tax, not always 10%, you need to check with custom.

So for my V4, strictly photography stuffs only.

Fyi

Cannot tahan already, i simply bought some stuff from b&h direct.
It is now on its way after checking the ups tracking.

1 zoom lense, 2 filters, 2 pack sensor cleaner swab, 1 lense cleaning kit, and a eye fi 8gb card. Total about rm1k.

This is my test purchase, if all goes well, definitely will not be my last!

Bought saturday early morning today package left america, on track to reach me thursday, that day after tomorrow! Me so excited, feel like i am gonna get a present!
Wanted to buy bag and tripod/mono but i think those will be taxed so buy later la.

Hehe... Will report if i am taxed.

Also how do you split the shipping fees??
*
hmmm, no true or wrong way, but i can only share my own logic.

Initial calculation:
1. For small small item like SD card, filter, i will charge US$4 per item.
2. After deduct the small item shipping from the total shipping cost, I will equally divided the remaining shipping cost for those big items like camera, lenses.
3. The most important, the buyer are ok with the proposed shipping cost.

Final calculation:
4. If there are more buyer to share the cost, all the shipping cost will be readjusted and lower further.

Thats why you will see initial shipping for 1 SD is US$4 but at final they only pay US$2.5 in some cases.

Hope this helps smile.gif
