dear all,

i have bought a beauty device from China 1mth ago and opt for air shipping through an agent, after waiting for 1mth, the agent tell me that the item is being confiscated by the custom.now offer a refund of half of the money that i have paid for it.

what i am concern is, the item i bought is less than RM100, but not available in Malaysia, i asked her to get bak the item from custom coz i thought the reason why they withhold the item is for taxing purposes, but the agent told me that we wont be able to get bak the item already without telling me the reason, she say the custom can take whatever they want without reason, i feel something wrong is here.

kindly advice me what can i do to proceed.

thank you

I don't understand the "Into foreign customs" twice. I called PosLaju and then the customs and I was told it's being held by the customs, but they cannot give me the exact details because "my documents haven't arrived" or something - according to the lady I was speaking to.

So...what do I do?
Seriously, USPS/PosLaju is terrible. I'll always opt to use FedEx from now on.

Okay so I called them again, and I was told my package is being held by the customs. I can either get Pos Malaysia to settle and collect it for me or I can go to LCCT myself to declare it.

I told the person on the phone it's a camera and that it shouldn't be taxed - he said yes, and something about the customs just wanting me to declare it. He said there's no tax on camera items but perhaps only on its parts.

So I'll have to go later to get it. Retarded shit I tell you.

I'm thinking to get the item below and send it via comgateway. Will I be taxed, if yes how much?
