UK got VAT but only for local residents there...non-residents/foreigners are exempted. You can either straight away get the exemption from VAT when buying goods at the shop by filling some forms at the cashier and let the shopkeeper handle everything or, you can also claim back the VAT charges at the customs at the airport, but that means you would need to show them the original receipts AND products bought there. If I'm not mistaken, they also have a limit of the amount that can be issued at the airport. But this was around 5 years back la...don't know if they change already.....

Oh...and when I bought online from there (also a couple of times), I wasn't charged VAT, but that saving would normally go to shipping charges.....

hmm.. in this case, if i were to buy online and ship to a local address (my hotel ) how would i claim it?

Don't have to claim...their price would be already without the VAT when they charge you. If you notice my post, it's the same one that I got from the link you posted. When I choose Malaysia in the shipping estimate, they deducted the VAT and became £96. The price will hold as long as the billing address (origin) or, in this case, credit card issuer is foreign. They might charge shipping when you want to sent to local address, but that would be minimal (and sometime free depending on the amount you purchased).

For shipping to a hotel, it might be a good idea to email/ask them first. For some reason, some retailer don't sent to hotels (or some hotel won't accept them).

Sorry, no idea on Osren selling price. I think there are some Osren ppl in LYN too... Just dunno their nick.

Anyway for me, I will go for used item(Provided good condition) or save more for brand new.

Anyway, have you decided on the meet-up date and time?

Always wanted to know what so special about the coating liquid....

Just now took a sniff on Dodo Juice - Infinity Paint Sealant, almost pengsan...

LOL...you know you're not suppose to, but you had to don't you...???

Most coating would have that 'smell'...some stronger than others....some less. In general, it shows how much of the content is solvent and how much is the actual 'coating'. The 22 smells the least solventy....

hmm need to vacuum/clean my car's carpets when i get home later

qing ming sunday yesterday, lotsa dirt/mud after everyone walked through the cemetery oTL

PW those carpets mats FTW!!! Muahahaha.......

ahhh.. now i understand.. that's nearly half the price of what osren is selling.. its still cheaper even if i add 4 meg's pads (£10.79 each), coming to a total of RM657. grrrr.. seriouly need to consider..

btw.. have you bought anything from this side before??

Sunday is pretty tricky for me personally. I'm usually back in Ipoh during the weekend. But if everyone wants to do it on Sunday, then I will need to make prior arrangements

btw, what is the best time? morning or evening?

pw??

PW?

PW = Power Washer

Didn't know mav3rick is also Ipoh kaki.

This 'side'?? You mean 'site'....yeah I got a few stuffs from CYC twice. They're ok. i4detailing got some discounts thought....type DWX when checking out....

pressure washer....

hmm since the dirt's dried up, i can just bring it out to give a few whacking and it'll do. if i want to wash them i'll need to dry them for a day under the sun and that'll be a hassle for non weekends (i just washed my 2 cars yesterday night/this morning starting 11pm until 4am+ LOL!)

heheh...just saying la. Well...everything is about 'time'. I also seldom do it. But when I do and have the time, the PW had worked well so far. I was surprised to see how much dirt the PW was able to 'pull' out from what look to be like a clean mat.....

hmm do you reckon if i need to get a PW myself? although the current gardening hose (with an adjustable spray gun) is able to use that "laser-like" spray that do put out some respectable pressure for my rims haha (rarely uses it as it splashes around the place too damn much and i'll easily get wet from it lol)

but yea, considering i have to wash car in the middle of the night despite having to wake up in a few hours later for work, you can see how tight i am for time

lol.. apologies for the typo..

just checked out i4detailing. for the DAS-6 PRO, even with the discount, its about the same as CYC as it doesnt come with the bag. so it sorts of even up after that.. mann.. this is really poisonous.. must really have the hands on session before i go over so that i can make a more informed decision..

Your call.....muahahaha......

i4detailing has a much better megs G220v offer than CYC though..
