QUOTE(hapeace @ May 6 2013, 05:16 PM) even this one small part also need USD6.55 envelope Business integrity matters. what a costly mistake by seller.. but i guess to them USD6.55 is nothing But some Malaysian sellers (other products) will argue day & night to share the postage, or ask you bear it again. |

Overseas selling cheaper, but factor in the shipping + tax.7939 Cargo Train - around rm600. is it worth the price? » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « RRP in M'sia is about RM700+ ... more expensive than 7938 |

QUOTE(aba9785 @ May 9 2013, 03:44 PM) Frankly, 79111 @ rm450 = no. SG can get RM375 +/- RM20, but need to bring ownself (or ask friend). Those with US/Europe contacts may get even cheaper. My calculation is simple: USD99 x 3.2 = RM316.80 For CS, mark up a bit, with/without shipping RM330-380 maybe reasonable (tax not included, but at higher range 380+ maybe inclusive) Landed price <RM400 sounds good deal. Just my 2 cents opinion. |

QUOTE(mryellow19 @ May 9 2013, 04:15 PM) Lol TRU in SG is selling 79111 at SGD 179.90. Not sure about other smaller shops/hypermarkets. I'm not really sure how the shipping and tax calculation works but I always assumed that shipping is the one that is the killer 79111 I found in SG selling ~SGD150 +/- not TRU/Metro/Takashimaya Even if retail SGD180, I can wait Metro 20% sale = SGD144 x 2.5 = RM360. Not yet deduct 5% extra member card discount. e.g. recent I bought 42006 at Metro-SG RRP SGD109.90 Discount 20% (27-28 Apr 2013, 2 days sale, don't know how many years anniversary) = SGD87.92 Discount another 5% member = SGD83.524 x2.5 (actual should be about 2.48) = RM208.81 Of course, as I say, this is own carry. No shipping cost and tax at JB Customs (if they don't stop you) or if your car got kids. Also, need to be at the right place, at the right time Can ask JB friends to help also. Registered Mail from Pos Malaysia should be <RM10. Poslaju more expensive. |

QUOTE(mryellow19 @ May 9 2013, 04:50 PM) Hahahah this i couldn't agree more. Member card is really useful especially when you are in need of discounts hahahaha. Unfortunately, I stay far away from SG and so happened a friend was down under to help look around. Didn't bother to check other shops so grabbed it as SGD180 Sudah beli, just enjoy Afterall, I still have my Technic MOC to do (2 parts-packages just touch down KLIA and into Customs) , which should be sufficient for my 4x mods: i) motorizing 8110 + servo steering ii) replace 8110 steering mechanism iii) add LA to mod 8110 rear dumper + add 2nd remote control IR for it. iv) 8043 combined mod Also, another set + parts coming back from SG today, to combine with the parts above. There will be MOC updates in coming 2-3 weeks time. |

QUOTE(mryellow19 @ May 9 2013, 05:06 PM) Haha yea the consolation is that I'm the early batch Cannot lah. I don't have postage/shipping jalan. Some more can't hand-carry that much, and lazy to deal with locations COD/FFK/etc. Also not going to disturb CS/sales tycoons here Currently just for my personal use only. |

QUOTE(touya_zell @ May 20 2013, 10:48 AM) on this subject, i just wondering The rubber will harden, but even my ~25 years old set, it still can fit into the wheel-rim.lets say if the set got rubber tires rite, wouldn't it be hard (deterioration) after some time? no way to check right, since ady cling wrap everything? Problem is, the plastic wheel-rim becomes brittle and start to crack/break. Box is stored in cool, dry and dark place. For stickers, some can buy replacement from Bricklink. For me, I scan and print out in colour at shops for few RM per A4 size. Can copy paste extra to fill up the entire sheet. Then cut myself. Does not look original or lookalike colour (I'm not in printing/colour separator/designer line), but at least get the idea of the sticker. Then I keep the original in pristine condition for future. QUOTE(aba9785 @ May 20 2013, 10:53 AM) got any good ways to open the 4 corners? Just lift-up the corner, pull slowly. Prepare a pair of scissors and box-cutter/knife. If start to see the paper tear, cut it. most of my box still using the older glue type and i sucks at open it without tearing some of the box... » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « Use double plastic bags to be safe. |
