I bought a branded laptop bag from ebay.us on 20th March 08.
Total cost inclusive of shipping USD85+-
Now i'm waiting for my bag..crossing finger hope tak kene tahan by custom.
The seller use USPS... I track the shipment just now this is the latest status "Your item cleared customs in MALAYSIA at 11:36 AM on March 25, 2008"
Is that mean my item tak kene tax? n i just have wait until the item sampai to my office with a peace of mind?? Anyone???

If cleared, means tak kena tax.

recently i just bought an item from ebay and the seller send the item to me using US Postal Service Priority Mail International Small Flat Rate Box,initially i asked him he said that this method has a tracking number,but currently the seller said that the US post office tell him that this method doesnt have any tracking number..

-can anyone confirm this with me?

- normally how long does it takes to send from US to Selangor?

-does it require signature upon receiving?

-and will they send to me using pos laju or pas daftar or normal mail??

thanks in advance

based on my experience:

- USPS Priority Mail got tracking number.

- duration of delivery from US to malaysia is about half month. depends of how fast the customs clear your item.

- I believe yes

- Pos Malaysia will send using pos daftar.

Just receive a snacks from Asian Food Grocer San Francisco, USA. No matter how you declare your items, the customs will open the package to make sure the declaration in customs form are correct. Later, the customs will cellotape back your package. In my case, no items missing.
