No surprise there, with the mindset of local businessman & local consumers. There's no way they can made a fortune from between.

In terms of price and shipping been a Lelong buyer since 2009 I think its better than Lazada, and any other online shopping site good price and got seller ratings which is like ebay so some disputes case can easily solved unlike lazada

Yes, Rakuten Global have option to ship to Malaysia and other countries, this site is basically a mirror of Rakuten.jp but some shop they only preferred Japan post EMS which is expensive so not really my primary site to shopping unless for rare and cheap deal This post has been edited by nazrul90: Mar 15 2016, 08:29 PM
