Dayum, thinking of getting a nexus 7hd now. Should I get if from US or wait for the Malaysia launch. If I get it from US it will be USD 229, Rm 750 + around Rm 100 shipping fee. Is it worth it ? Or pay rm 150 more for a local set

You got gift code, that's why it's cheaper?

You won't get taxed. But you should get notified to apply for SIRIM. RM100 for 3 units. That one should be unavoidable.

EDIT: Oh I see.. Shipping and handling 24 USD. Didn't see clearly

Dayum. Need sirim ka? Like that I better wait for local set lul. Rm 1299 for the 32Gb LTE seems like a good deal. How much is the 32GB Wi-Fi only. Coz I don't need LTE lol.

For WiFi only unit no need for SIRIM. 3 of my Nexus 7 (2013) are hold up by Kastam and they requested me to apply for SIRIM. I refused and went to Kastam office to deal with the officer directly. He asked me to open up the unit to let  him check if it's able to put in SIM card or use phone function. At the end, he just let go since it's really a WiFi only unit.

The issue with custom is, you'll have to clear it at KLIA. which is so Damn far.

Anyone wanna join my bulk Nexus 7HD original Travel case bulk? The retail price is Usd 19. 99 but amazon is selling it for Usd 17.99. After conversion is Rm 60. Added in shipping should be around Rm 100. I think it will be better to buy the case from US and wait for the actual nexus 7 to be released locally because nexus 7 might get hold up in custom.

Check this out on Amazon:

Not sure. It's the official travel case for Nexus 7 HD. Anyway I'll make my order on Monday or Tuesday. Weird thing tho. The shipping and handling for the cases alone is $34.20 and the import tax fee is $30.44. Then I tried to add another Nexus 7 Full HD. The shipping and handling became 39. 36 and the import tax fee is unchanged . Does this mean I'm only paying rm 15 extra for the Nexus 7? rclxm9.gif
