My relative use Australia Post. I see their FB like a lot bad comment, so I inform my relative, but they told me they use no problem, so I ok lor (I pray 99 that the parcel do not get lost) ..
I use their Pack and Track International (500g). Do own calculation: http://auspost.com.au/apps/international-p....countryCode=MY

Check both DHL & fedex, both also very expensive. My friend said aus post is useless so didn't bother checking that. Surprised though, so cheap yet can reach in 4days shocking.gif

Maybe issues are within australia only, not sure about that but that's what they say people over there. Sirim I think depends on luck la, but usually companies like DHL & fedex will declare the item earlier & process the import form or whatever they call that for kastam so usually fedex & dhl will always kena taxes based on my experience. I know mobile phone dont have taxes but I am just referring to other items smile.gif

wew that means selles out here made around 200 to 300RM profit per set. More like get thr own N 5 for free eventually haha. But yeah it takes time effort money and risk to do all this smile.gif

take note of sirim too, but not really expensive for sirim so still a huge profit. Screen protectors also you see few of them selling at RM50+, meanwhile I am offering RM38 only (i do make a very small profit out of it) but that should give you an idea on how much the others are earning rolleyes.gif

Guys, wanna ask something about matte screen protectors

Do you find that matte screen protectors affect the clarity and sharpness of the screen? From my previous experience on Samsung i9000, I find that there will be colour artifacts and reduced sharpness if I put on a matte SP
*
Tried matte in the past with my phone & I didn't like it. Hard to see under the sunlight so I replaced it with clear screen protector instead. I don't mind wiping my screen on my shirt often than not being able to see the screen while traveling. Maybe expensive screen protector might give a different experience, I was just using those cheap screen protector from pasar malam so whistling.gif

Anyone know any shops that sell Spigen and/or Diztronic cases? I already know of Techbug.my but they're an online store and my first choice would be to see if there are any stores that sell these. Preferably around Subang Jaya area.

If 1gadget, directD all dont have then I doubt any other shops will be carrying. They dont even sells nexus 5 so I doubt they will be selling accessories for nexus 5 hmm.gif

Not really liking the bulge on the nillkin

Thats like 3x more the price tongue.gif Need to consider price too hahaha, the nillkin casing probably can get around ~RM30.

QUOTE(-kytz- @ Jan 19 2014, 04:26 PM)
I have this case.

It keeps the phone's thin profile but the hard case has sharp edges which would scratch your phone if you're not careful, this happened to me once.
*
Ah I see, thanks for the feedback. Probably will help others to reconsider happy.gif

Actually nillkin makes 3 type of casing for nexus, you guys can take a look. If got sufficient amount of people interested then maybe I can arrange a bulk biggrin.gif

So far nexus 5 seems like a pretty awesome phone(no faulty parts, sensor problems, signal etc), we have quite a lot of users here & so far I think non of them have any issues with their unit (except for that 1 guy iirc). Probably you are not going to use that warranty anyways if you are changing phone often. Only issue I hear is screen breaking (I think around 5 forumers already broke their screen? ). Even if you buy nexus 5 from LG malaysia, you still need to pay for the screen.

So I think just get an ap unit & enjoy your phone la. No point you guys wait, you all wait wait wait then later LG malaysia say they not bringing the phone in you all are going to rage laugh.gif Until now there isn't any news, leaks, pricing etc so looks like its not going to be available any time soon.

I have a feeling that nexus 5's price will hike up a lot if it doesn't comes here officially. Why? because of limited over seas unit and high demand. Off course if it is official then thr r a lot of units. But for now thr r limited.
If this happens, second hand N5 demand also (y)
*
Nah I dont think it would because we can buy it ourself. We can get either from aus (if you have relative) or japan also can via forwarding company. I calculated before buying from japan cost about RM1.4k. They were selling like hotcakes for the past few weeks, if they wanted to increase the price they would have done it already.

True that but then see how many of us bought it around 1750 to 1800RM for a 32GB model... not everyone likes to get into much hassle in asking relatives or friends to help or sending over the money or telling them to make efforts for us or finding a shipping technique. It takes time sad.gif. I had two friends coming over from Australia in January, none of them could help me out as after ordering from playstore also you need to wait till it arrives to ur friends house in Australia + plus ur friend gotta order using his CC etc etc etc. You see for us we can understand what all is happening but for many they would rather just get it from people who are selling it here already.
*
You can get from japan then lo, use forwarding agent. They will handle all that for you plus its cheap. Hassle free but not sure about any hidden charges la since I never try.

Btw for those who still havent reply my PM, please check your inbox. Hopefully can send out all the parcel out by today & arrange COD time for all the other forumers at night.

Any1 knows where to get Neo Hybrid for N5 - and price?
*
If you dont mind waiting, can get from garage sales from the seller certified deller or something like that his nick. Its preorder though so takes about 2 weeks to reach. He selling for RM85. I can arrange bulk for neo hybrid if there is sufficient MOQ but I doubt this is possible plus will probably cost ~RM80 so not much price difference la imo.

Also those who wants to join the next bulk for nillkin magic disk or screen protector, do drop me a PM. Will start the bulk right after CNY, so time to fill up the list smile.gif Previous bulk was successful, you all should be getting your sp today/tomorrow brows.gif

I haven't had the time to test if the sp works for neo hybrid/ultra hybrid yet, so busy with sending out all the parcels & cod so maybe later I will apply the screen protector & share the results. Hopefully no issues with neo hybrid, then I can sell off my ultra hybrid tongue.gif
