Depends on the abx branch I guess
Kuantan also no problem and always on time

The KL, PJ and Subang ones are terrible. Will never use them again, their fb page full of complaints.

Placed order last week and all my items already shipped from warehouse. I choose 'zhi song' btw.
Status has been 已发货 for a few days, but I don't know whether that means it's shipped from china warehouse to Malaysia or whether it's in Malaysia ady delivering to my house. It seems the 'zhi song' delivery uses COE but no way to contact them. Do they switch to other carriers like skynet when the item reach Malaysia?

This is the only update I got by tracking on COE, wow so much details =.=
But still nothing on skynet

I've used 'ji yun' in the past I don't remember it being so complicated.
Hope 'zhi song' is smoother and I can get my items soon lol.

Click on the online customer services, ask them to give u the track code, give the information which they ask for.

I have the tracking code already, on COE website it shows that it's in Malaysia, in Taobao app it shows that it's already delivering, talk to customer service they say sending to custom, track on skynet nothing. One tracking number track on 4 different service get 4 different results haha

I thought my parcel kena charge import duty because stuck at custom for 3days clearance...And my parcel total cost rm1500..I didn't know that there will be charged if items more than rm500..damn worried after read previous comments..Luckily  I received the parcel  without kena import duty😊😊😊😊 personally I prefer use ABX in Ipoh because that uncle will call me  if I'm not in the house  and he will try his best to redelivery my parcel on the same day! Thumbs up !  I already fed up with skynet & airpark.

Wait for package more than RM500 will get taxed? I bought some accessories and did some bulk with other forumers totaling up to more than RM500 sad.gif

got update today, apparently parcel already left China custom 3 days ago and now already in malaysia for delivery. But when track with airpak "no record"  sweat.gif

I think if airpak no record then high chance it's not yet being delivered, sometimes the taobao cs just tell you what you want to hear lol.

Btw do u know whether if the parcel is more than RM500 it'll be taxed or not?

It can also be airpak haven't update on their side, don't speculate.
equal to or more than 500 will kena GST
There is also import duty depend on item category.
*
Could be, but speaking from experience the taobao cs always push the responsibility to local carrier.
Now 0% GST so safe la kan? Import duty how they calculate? I just bought some phone accessories, total about RM600++

I'm really not sure about import duty, never made purchases over RM500 before. But reading from the posts here a lot of ppl recommend not to make purchase over RM500 in a single order. Maybe just pray customs officer is having a good day when they go through yours  biggrin.gif

How do they know the value of the items in the package? Do they check by opening the packages one by one or do they just check the consignment note on the package?

If im not mistaken shipper has to declare value of the items

Ah okok, then how are we supposed to pay the import tax? I say online just pay it to the carrier delivery driver when they deliver the package is that correct?
