Hi guys, would like to check with ya'll.

I'm planning to place 10 HG's from HLJ, would there be any additional tax or interference from our customs even if it's for personal use?

All your advice are much appreciated! notworthy.gif

High chances, better split into two shipments.

Make sure you buy different HGs.

Ya 10 different HG's, not sure which is more expensive though. Twice the shipping cost from HLJ (if I split into two as per advised by Mushy) or the tax incurred from our customs if it exceeds their policy/R&R.

Is the total with shipping over RM500?

Yes, but final cost yet to be revealed by HLJ, back-order. Assume total goods around MYR410, and shipping from MYR168 (lowest) to MYR385 (highest).

bro back order doesnt mean you can get them at anytime soon, i also back ordered mine for over a year now still at the same state.

so unless manufacturer like bandai announce a reissue, else your order will be forever back order...

so you can chill and wait for the time being, who knows may  be somebody suddenly gone and policy change?

Oh damn, a YEAR!? shocking.gif wow didn't expect this!! They won't just inform you that the order will be cancelled instead?

Anyways thanks guys for the input!!

2 scenarios:

1. Single shipping with total over RM500 and big box. High possibility of getting checked by custom. Tax around 10% + 6% gst. Usually stopped at KLIA. At this point you can either go claim it yourself or have pos malaysia handle it for you at a fee. You will still need to collect at the nearest poslaju office.

2. 2 shipping at total below RM500 and small box each. Low probability of getting checked by custom and no hassle to collect and pay extra. Cost of shipping might be expensive.

Here you'll need to calculate the total you'll be paying for both scenarios and then compare it.

Anyway, you are using the private warehouse, right?
I usually just ship total below rm500 and the rest wait for next month salary.
Also most normal HGs have reproductions. There's no reason to buy bulk over rm500 unless it is a sales or extreme price cuts.

Yep, using the private warehouse.

Not sure if the 10 units of HG's I'm planning to get are normal, but can't seem to find them from the major online shops in Msia. (Gundam Seed Destiny HG's).

With HLJ you can still cancel your items. I once ordered a back ordered item but after 2 months still it isn't available. Cancelled it and ordered a newer version that came out.
