How much is this LX5 unit after conversion and including postage?
Is the saving worth it because no warranty and need to use converter to change?
Thanks.

For those who want to buy lenses please make sure you can collect from Setia Alam.
The reason is Poslaju dont accept parcel with Cameras, Lenses, Mobile Phones or any high value Electronic Gadgets...

Philipcs,

Meanwhile, I am sarawakian, can use poslaju to deliver to me or not?  I think it shouldn't be a problem, just that you have to get the item insured by topping up some money.  No worries

I asked to add insurance but Poslaju just dont accept camera lenses. sad.gif
Unless i dont declare as lenses but very risky. I will try to call TNT or Nation Wide and ask them will they accept camera lenses and how much if add insurance.

Shipping fee is US$14.70 for this lens. See the shipping cost break down below:

Ok, I got the solution now with GDExpress.
They accept camera lenses and below are the charges:

Item less than 500g to Sarawak : RM20
Bubble wrap box : RM6
Insurance coverage : 3% of the item's value.

If you getting this lens, you need to pay RM26 for courier fee&box + RM18 for insurance coverage. Total is RM44

After Item Arrived My Hand, Courier Service within Malaysia
FYI, Poslaju DO NOT accept parcel containing camera, lenses, mobile phone and those high value fragile gadget. Small item like SD Card, Filter is OK still.
So I have contacted GD Express and they are accepting parcel containing cameras and lenses, with optional insurance coverage.

Below are the estimated charges:
Item less than 500g to East Malaysia : RM20
Item less than 500g to West Malaysia : RM16
Box with Bubble wrap to protect the item : RM6 (Small size), the bigger the more expensive.
Optional Insurance coverage : 3% of the item's value.

QUOTE
Example of shipping fee from Klang to Negeri Sembilan:
Item: Panasonic Leica DG Summilux 25mm f1.4
Value of the Item: RM1600
Shipping Fee by GD Express: RM16
Box with bubble wrap: RM6
Optional Insurance coverage: 3% of RM1600 = RM48

Total shipping cost from Klang to Negeri Sembilan - RM16 + RM6 + RM48 = RM70

Bro, I think a bit too expensive for GDexpress.  Maybe just use poslaju only.  Don't have to declare it as lens that's all.  Can combine shipment with my lexar SD cards.  Just remember  to use bubble wrap and poslaju shipping bag for safety purposes.  Normally people don't dare to open out the poslaju shipping bag (bcs once open cannot be sealed anymore)

Sure, if you willing to take the risk, i am ok to send via Poslaju without declare.
But this sealed bag only allow for flat or document, not the square boxes leh.
Also i am not profession seller so i DONT have bubble wrap at home.

Poslaju do selling boxes too but i am not sure about the price.

Most of the time I use poslaju to deliver, so I am very clear.  Use those plastic sealed bag is fine for parcel too because we are paying for parcel rate instead of document.  So it shouldn't be a problem.  Meanwhile, i don't recommend to use box, because I've bad experience with poslaju. Due to most of time people who are working in airport (airasia) will open up the box and take the valuable item from it.  I've lost 2 item by putting inside box with declaration somemore.  Even tough you declare or pay insurance, it also takes you ages to claim those lost.  I've been waiting for 2 years just to claim.  Now still waiting for their cheque.  vmad.gif

Meanwhile, I've a lot of bubble wrap at home.  If you don't mind, I can send them to you.  Maybe I will be getting more item from B&H Photo in near future because some of the items are really hard to get or find in Malaysia. Although you can find it locally, not worth it or expensive.  How is that sounds to you??
Thanks for your precious time.

Thanks for explanation.
Sure, your proposal and idea sound great smile.gif

Bro, although I am not your customer,  I would like to leave a comment on domestic postage service.

FYI, poslaju does accept postng of camera and lenses. At least in my place, and you can actually declare them as lenses. Just dont forget to ask them stick the 'Fragile' sticker.

Poslaju are selling boxes too, starting from RM 2. There are two types of boxes, one type is the prepaid Poslaju (you need to pay alot more but you dont need to worry bout your Poslaju anymore because it's aleady included in the price of the box). Another would be just buying the box.

Well, as for me, I usually use poslaju to ship my lenses to customers.

Use the prepaid poslaju envelope (small, RM 6 ) for things like filters or memory cards because the envelope has bubble padding inside, so it's safer. plus, poslaju is already paid, so practically you got the envelope for free smile.gif

Haha, just some info for you.

Hi Bro,
Thanks a lot for your advise, really appreciated!
Do you go to Poslaju office to send lenses or Pos Malaysia office?
I went to 2 Pos Malaysia Office, they dont want to accept my package sad.gif

I have even sent lens more than a thousand ringgit through poslaju, there was no problem. they accepted and the package arrived safely. if you want insurance, go to Pusat Poslaju, if you are not bothered about that, can go to any pos malaysia office. so really, GD express is overpriced.

QUOTE(chiahau @ Nov 18 2012, 07:01 PM)
Wrap it very tightly, bubble wrap at least 2 layers for safety and most importantly, don't ever write camera or anything close to it.

Just write camera accessories or Glass, if you are so paranoid. The person will then warn you, if its broken, it's not their fault.

I worked in a camera shop for at least 6 months, none of my products were ever rejected by Pos Office  laugh.gif

Great! Now i can argue with them already. But i am not sure the Pos Malaysia in i-City and Setia Alam dont want to accept my package once i mentioned is Camera Lens.

Thanks a lot man biggrin.gif
