QUOTE(Sypher @ May 28 2012, 05:47 PM) Got a white letter to pick up my items from KLIA, it's collector toys and priced at 250$ usd, do you think, i need to pay taxes? Or would they just let it go ? Because alot of the charge is the shipping. 100$ usd for shipping. yes, tax incurred includes the items's price together with the shipping fees. |

QUOTE(shyni @ Sep 28 2012, 08:16 PM) Alright, but will the package just be sent to me once everything is determined to be okay, or will I have to do anything else? Assuming 1. custom clearance is smooth 2. ur package doesn't go MIA somewhere, you just need to wait for your package to be delivered to your doorstep. |

QUOTE(nao @ Sep 30 2012, 12:22 PM) I need some help/advice. I ordered some t-shirts from Threadless back in June and i've yet to receive my parcel. The delivery that they used is DHL International Standard and apparently no tracking number is provided for this type of delivery. June is a bit too long for international transit from US to MY (assuming the parcel is posted out from US).Anyone know to whom I should ask to enquire about the status of my delivery? I assume that the parcel has arrived in malaysia but for some reason it's not reaching me. Can someone help me? It's my first time ordering stuff from overseas. It might be a bit late, but there's no harm trying to call DHL up to ask about the status. |

QUOTE(nao @ Oct 1 2012, 11:04 PM) Yes, I've thought about calling them before; real life intervene a lot of times to the point of me forgetting about the parcel until recently. The thing is I wasn't given any tracking number for the parcel, only shipping number. How do I bring the subject matter to their attention without any tracking number? If there's no tracking number, it probably means it's not trackable.I suppose you can try to call them and give them your shipping number, see if they have any records about your stuff. But i would say don't put too much hope since it's nearly 4 months ady. |

QUOTE(yeehau86 @ Oct 18 2012, 08:52 PM) Hi guys if your custom clearance is smooth, the the next tracking update should be Customs clearance processing complete.I bought an item from overseas and it has arrived at Malaysia via USPS Express Mail, with the current status is "Customs Clearance" from the tracking website. So do I need to call them and ask or wait for their call / letter? What's the next procedure to do the clearance if my item got stuck there? Thanks. just wait for the update, another way to find out will be through pos malaysia website track and trace page to see the updates. if your item is stuck at custom, you can go to clear it urself or appoint pos malaysia as ur agent to clear your item for a fee (rm49.50 if i'm not mistaken). |

QUOTE(yeehau86 @ Oct 18 2012, 10:26 PM) Thanks for the quick reply, bro. hmm... usually the custom clearance takes one day, max 2-3 days.I have checked at the pos malaysia website, the status is "Arrived at inward OE/Receive item at OE". This has been status quo since 16th October if like that, i suggest you calling them up to be sure if you don't want to wait for online tracking update. next tracking upate from pos malaysia should be 'Departure from inward OE/Send item to domestic location' if there's no custom delay. USPS express mail should reach within one week if there's no custom delay. |
