how about if we buy some electronic goods from overseas...example cd players, do they charge tax on it?

hi all, want some advice here

I just bought 3 vinyl records from Discogs (seller from Netherlands) & now in shipping status.
all item incl postage is under RM150
i do ask the seller to post the records as gift.

i read at the beginning of this thread, music/CD = 30%
wow madness! is it still valid?




last time i bought a soundcard from ebay with the help from a LYN forumer, the item arrived & i have to collect them at the post office in Pending, Kuching. so i met the kastam lady..since it was afternoon & looks like thse ladies in their lazy mood (luckily this kastam lady i'm dealing with is the same race as me...so we chit chat a little) while she instructed me to open the box...but my luck was at my side that time. she said just pretend to open the box to declare content....but actually i never opened it! so i lepas lah (not sure soundcard/computer parts is taxable or not)

thank you for the clarification.

how about vinyl records (piring hitam)?

i'm currently waiting for my vinyl records to arrive which is less than rm500 per shipping.
is it taxable?

thanks for the clarification

i have asked the sender to put it as gift & stated a very low price on the item.
hopefully it will come through...
