Hello

If you buy from overseas, does not matter any website, will most definitely be taxed.

1) laptops are expensive items in nature

2) Customs like to hold or "target" electronic items such as laptops, hand phones, sometimes gps.

You may get away if you can give a valid reason such as it has been used, or etc. However, the probability is VERY LOW especially for electronics stuff.





Just want to inform you all my experience

Last time I had purchased action figures from overseas. Custom gave me call and tell me the amount that I need to pay. If not mistaken, I was charged 15% of the purchase price of the value the seller declare for tax +RM25 for handling fee. Being a newbie at that time, I agree to it. I had to faxed and sms to confirmed the payment of tax and handling fee. 2 Days later, the items were sent to my doorstep and i need to pay on the spot (they were using Kanggaroo service)

Wonder if the seller declare very low value, I just need to pay 15% of the value stated or do customs have a "standard value of items"?

Ya, I agreed with Nanakopy87.

Definitely not possible to check if no tracking number

What you can do is inform the seller about this and see whether there is a solution to this.
