cheapest is 16000 yen, from google finance rate is around rm503, would kena tax already
i guess i would see what do local store offer only decide
Just wanted to ask, BiJ allows you the option to mark down the declared value of the parcel, has anyone tried it before and will our Malaysian customs catch on to this?

Was thinking of ordering from BiJ and getting them to declare the overall value (inclusive of shipping) to below RM500 in order to avoid tax.

As per my understanding.

Yes you can declare the overall value lower, but if your parcel is lost you can only claim the declared value.

But i read somewhere one member mentioned that even RM300 also kena tax...

Via agent mostly they would say have to tax and still need pay agent commision somemore?

Which means most of the time have to go by yourself and that would have higher probability that they might not charge you.

Yep, in BiJ's FAQ, it does mentioned that if it's lost, you can only claim back via insurance the declared value.

I've heard cases where ppl get taxed even though it's below RM500, while others are not taxed although it's over RM500. Seems to depend on luck.
For me, I follow the general rule of thumb that below RM500 won't tax while above RM500 will tax, as that seems to be what the black and white says.
So far I haven't tried buying anything over RM500 from overseas but I did buy some stuff below RM500 and all weren't taxed.

I was thinking, and I'm assuming that you are referring to a situation where customs decide to random check and open my parcel despite being less than RM500? Then they can check online to see how much the figure is really worth.

Otherwise, if they just look at my parcel without opening it (which is what I assume they do to parcels below RM500, unless the parcel is in some other way triggering their suspicions), how would they know whether the figure inside is really the declared value or not?

Maybe depends on what item and how much stated in the declaration. If big box but declared too low then suspicious already. Or the item description was too vague

I have an idea. If u get love letter, you take a photo of your otaku room, might as well have a naked daki cover hanging like a wall scroll, take picture of your room and print in A3 paper size. Yup, A3. Bring it there and go "Im a collector, not a seller/trader. Buying it because it's my hobby, spare my pitiful wallet because i eat grass 3 meals a day to be able to afford this".
And then go on and kneel on the floor and beg if necessary. brows.gif
