There's an item I wish to buy used, but it's really hard to find on Carousell MY. But on Carousell SG, I can easily find 4-5 of it being listed.
I'm wondering, has anyone every bought from a seller on Carousell SG, and has the item shipped to MY? I understand it's risky, but based on my experience with Carousell, so far if the seller has good reviews, the risk of getting conned is low. So I'm thinking of taking the risk.
Also, how much does it cost to ship from SG to MY for a small item that's less than 1kg?

I just delivered one document parcel like- around 28sgd just to send to malaysia, even with MCO it only takes 3-4 days to receive

That's quite expensive. Is it because you opted for express delivery? 3-4 days for international shipping is quite fast.

Most likely I'll just have to hope that someone in MY decides to sell the item then.

Carousell is a bit of a hit & miss. A lot of scams and scammers - especially during the early days of COVID19 and mask shortages. Caveat emptor.

So far I've no issues with it. I just stick to sellers that have a lot of 5 star reviews.

i know right, take watches for instance, there are always deals in their marketplace, whereas in MY scene its all cheap knockoff versions. Are you looking for timepieces too?

No, it's a guitar pedal. New one costs RM800, so I'm trying to find a used one for about RM400. I can easily find it in Carousell SG for $100-$150.
Most likely I have to suck it up and buy a new one lah. Seems like it will cost upwards $25 just for the shipping alone.
