QUOTE(itekderp @ Jan 31 2016, 12:45 PM) You'll pay tax in 90% cases if you buy from end, even if your purchase below 500. End has some fked up arrangements with fedex, they will never count actual postage paid and just use the freight schedule. Lots of other better choices around if you don't mind slower delivery. Listen to this. Quoted for truth. Haha

QUOTE(wira1979 @ Jan 31 2016, 10:49 AM) Have a look at Slam Jam Socialism. They have the Blaze Croc at discounted prices and I think they have an extra 10% off this weekend. Their shipping is reasonable and they charge in EUR. I would've bought the Blaze Croc if I hadn't just bought 2 sneakers last month. Just checked the website. Too bad doesn't have my size. What did you get for the 2 sneakers?

How many % of tax usually incurred ? Do you have other recommendation?

QUOTE(dopamine @ Jan 31 2016, 06:37 PM) How many % of tax usually incurred ? Do you have other recommendation? Quite a lot, since the freight schedule cost is crazy. Had a shipment costing rm300 during free shipping, they calculated shipping at rm500 due to end's big ass boxes. Ended up paying nearly rm80 in tax. So I've boycotted end since then. Never had a shipment come from them which is tax free. Would recommend hanon as above poster mentioned, they deduct vat which gives them an advantage over size. Also their sales can be quite crazy. Got a couple great deals from them.

Zalora i would say is more reliable. I believe they are authorized seller for Nike's. They have some Roshe as well. Returns are easy. They ship via gdex, so don't expect your shoebox to be in great condition. Can check out al-ikhsan as well. But monochrome roshe's and flyknits are hard to come by la. Good luck.

Chucks will never be as comfy and lightweight as the boost.

In the past year I've bought sneakers from End, Hanon, eBay, Amazon UK and Asos. I've always made sure that all my purchases were below RM500 in total (goods + shipping). Maybe I was lucky but so far I didn't have to pay taxes on any of my orders. I believe it's all about not drawing attention to your shipment. 1 or 2 sneakers in a compact box is safer than say 3 shirts that are shipped in a huge ass container.

You just answered your own question They do stock airmax, flyknit but of past seasons and sometimes at very good deals I.e free flyknit 5.0 below rm200 You can read earlier pages of this thread which we covered about factory outlet shopping etc

if buying sneakers just for fashion, then anything will be alright. if for serious running, I recommend a very good site that gives serious reviews on running shoes, you'd be surprised that many flashy brands got thrashed, they spent their own $$$ to buy the shoes for testing, sometimes they even cut open the shoes to check the component materials. Some big name brands got criticized heavily for not being honest!!! Really worth checking this out for serious runners: http://www.solereview.com/list-of-performance-reviews/The current highest rated products are Saucony Ride 7, New Balance 1500 V1, Nike Air Pegasus 31, Brooks Adrenaline GTS 14, and those Adidas Boost series.
