Guys, I have a problem.
I ordered just some cables (RCA, Toslink, etc) from Monoprice.com, totalling to about USD$180 (about US$70 shipping) However, UPS called me this morning (5 minutes ago) and said that I have to pay a tax of RM280?!!! I seriously went, "WTF?" because I do not know that I will be charged almost 50% tax! Now, what do I do? |

QUOTE(RzaX @ Aug 26 2010, 10:22 AM) I think it's tax + UPS service fee. I think previous replies to this thread mentioned the same problem with UPS exorbitant fees. Maybe you can deal with UPS to pick the item yourself at the Kastam to lessen their "service fees"? They already took the liberty of taking out the item from Kastam department already, I think. What kind of 'service fee' are they charging.. RM180? |
