Hi,

just read the review that best android TV box in the market was Nvidia Shield 2017. Quite hard to buy it at the store, so just check online:

Nvidia Shield TV box 2017 Basic model (only console + remote, without game controller). Purely for streaming video, so choose the one without game controller.

Malaysia seller --> RM1199

Singapore Website --> SGD288 (x3 = RM864)
https://www.qoo10.sg/item/NVIDIA-SHIELD-TV-...nner_no=1305330

Look like the price in malaysia quite expensive compare to sg seller after currency exchange. Would like to ask, if bought from Qoo10, when courier to malaysia, will custom charge taxes? if yes, how many % and does the process
to get clearance from custom very complicated and time consuming?

There is a SG seller in 11street selling for rm1k. That is the best price I found previously. If you buy from sg website still need to pay gst and import tax.

can you provide me the link? check current 11street, a lot of seller but mostly ship from Korea and state no warranty.

Can't find the previous seller BBOX.
But found this:

https://www.11street.my/productdetail/nvidi...r-with-57585864

With shopping card coupon can get for RM991.90

ship from south korea and state warranty need to claim from USA manufacture, not from seller...if ship from south korea, still entitle to GST and custom tax rite?

U can get it direct from amazon with shipping+tax=$235(remote+controller)

Or use forwarder that have amazon prime account..

Warranty is under nvidia usa.

Edit:
If buying from amazon, buyer need to apply for Sirim permit(RM106)

For 11street & Lazada, seller will take care of GST & Import tax. You don't pay extra.
From what I know, wherever you buy it from, there is no local warranty available. Even if there is a local seller, they will not give you warranty for it. Still goes back to Nvidia US. Unfortunately this is the risk for buying (most) stuff which are not distributed locally.

oic, ok thanks bro for your info. as long as everything kaotim at seller side, hassle free on buyer side, then should be ok.

already bought Nvidia Shield 2017 Basic Model (without game controller) on Monday thru Amazon.com. Pricing details:

Items: 179 USD
Shipping and Handling : 20.27 USD (AmazonGlobal Expedited Shipping, 5- 10 working days to arrive)
Imports Fee Deposit: 11.96 USD
TOtal = 211.23 USD (RM844.13 charge by bank, rate at 1USD = RM3.9962)

when you check out, please pay with your malaysia credit card using USD currency instead of RM. coz the exchange rate charge by Amazon.com quite high, 1USD = 4.11 RM (Monday rate). so better pay by USD, then using bank exchange rate plus the administration fees charge by bank, more cheaper, already check by credit card statement, me using Citibank, different bank different admin fees)

for the amazon.com, all the related charge already included in Imports Fee Deposit, no need to pay more, all the custom fees and process will be settle by amazon.com, you just sit at your home waiting for the item to be arrive. if the impors fee deposit insufficient to settle with custom, amazon.com will pay it, if got balance, they will refund the impoirts fee deposit into your amazon account.

Nice. Any issue after the update?

Replied thru PM

Do update once receive the package specially on Sirim application.

will there any problems on the SIRIM application? first time also bought things from Amazon.com, did read on Amazon.com Amazon.com Rules and Regulation before bought it.

Not sure who will apply for sirim permit.
As for tax & shipping, it will be process by Amazon.

thought you bought Nvidia shield before thru AMazon.com. as you are the one that recommended to buy thru amazon.com, anyway now hope my item not stuck in custom

No other issues so far, using expressvpn
Before this amazon video app won't even connect if vpn is on
Only feature missing is the x-ray that seems to be only available on firetv

alamak, read at other thread, SIRIM approval need to settle by buyer. need to pay RM106 to get that sticker before release, if know so troublesome, will not buy from amazon.com.

Damn, so sorry to mislead you.
I bought mine thru forwarder then i notice Amazon also can ship to Malaysia.
Forgot to mention about sirim on my earlier post.
U can apply the permit via online and email to custom.

Not a fan of amazon video but the x-ray feature looks interesting.
Haven't update mine yet, will wait for few days.
R u using the shield remote? Or air mouse?
