I'm going to order some stuff but I'm not too familiar with online shopping.

Between Play-asia & Lik-sang, which is better? Do both send stuff to Malaysia shore?

Thanks

Both Play-Asia & Lik-sang send item to Malaysia.

I prefer Play-Asia. Their price are cheaper. And they offer free shipping for most of their items (IINM, Lik-Sang only offer free shipping for Games / Handhelds console). Bought from Play-Asia few times before and I like their service.

U can also check out YesAsia.

Right thanks. Play-asia is indeed cheaper. I got XMC component video cable for USD19.00 as oppose to Lik-sang's USD29.00 of the very same unit.

just wonder, when it ship to MAlaysia.
wont we got tax on it?~!

Usually if the item is under RM 500, you won't get taxed. If you kena tax, then you're very unlucky. Some forumer even managed to bring in Xbox 360 console and didn't kena tax.

havent tried lik-sang before.
play-asia and yes-asia are good...
no tax so far. *touch wood*

Play-Asia.

Lik-Sang very leceh...needs PAY PAL and won't accept credit card.

Play-Asia free delivery deliver nicely to my door step.

yaya got free coupon also


check out aki from signature

bought from P-A & YesAsia.
P-A fast & reliable. free shipping via airmail (insured). i look at the postage P-A have to pay (inclusive of insurance) on the packets & parcels, and i feel very grateful to be 'subsidized'. bonus- stickers & coupon

YesAsia is a little slower when processing their order. Some games (especially the budgetted titles) are cheaper than P-A. also free airmail shipping (i believe also insured). didn't print the postage on the packet, so dunno how much was the postage fees. bonus - 1 issue of GameWave mag

dun forget superufo too

well, i bought stuff from lik-sang before, items arrived safely... but based on the info in here, I just ordered something from play-asia... fingers x'ed! Free shipping is nice

dunno if this will help..but i used to order stuff using DHL (not video games)...DHL staff told me that for personal items that below RM2000 no tax But the only problem is kastam always simpan ur stuff lama2 especially if u using normal mail order...for inspection lah itulah inilah...... but that was like 1 year ago..so now i really dunno..

The problem is... DHL, UPS, FEDEX, all so expensive... depending on the country of origin, it could be even more expensive than paying tax... but of course it's alot faster...

It all depend on luck. I have order many2 time from play-asia only once it took more than 10 days (20 days to be exact) to receive the goods. So far no tax yet. (Well the most i order RM360.00). But i realise, if i order game, usually the package will be open and the gamebox also been rip. But no damage to the game. As for accesories. None have been open so far. Plus all this is normal shipping.

You mean the game's shrinkwrap plasic has been ripped?

He says its normal shipping. Probably the airbubble mail from PA which is free...not the DHL/Fedex kind...

Still I want to hear about the gamebox. Having it open is fine. Having it open and then have something ripped inside isn't my cup of tea.

^i think he meant the P-A delivery cardbox open/resealed.

received all my airmail bubble parcels with no problems. 1 of them went through an official Kastam inspection though. it was opened & resealed with tapes & stickers; "Dibuka Untuk Pemeriksaan" "Dibungkus Semula" "Dilepaskan" content of the parcel was not 'molested' in any way
