poyo, it depend on luck, and also ur means of transport, whether its possible to be hidden

Really??? Ok. Will check it out.

Talk to Tony, he's da boss there. Tell him Darren recommended you to his shop.

Thanks for the info htkaki. Hhhmmmm, this Velodyne sub will hold me off any urge to upgrade sub ke?

Ah, mucha thanks. Haihs, looks like hafta find a way to make the stuff look 2nd hand then. Out goes the spare tyre then! If I can drive my hatchback better lah. Got a nice hidden box, enough to put receivers + cables etc, but now there's two amps inside!

Someone recommended me to find an old box and put the stuff inside, hide all the cables, warranty etc so the stuff look like I bought it from a person 2nd hand. So if I got stopped by MY Customs, show off the box and say : " Takde resit lah bang, brg 2nd hand beli dr kawan ni. ", maybe, just maybe, the probability of me getting off scot - free is there lah.

poyo, just to remind u one thing, customs officer is much more smarter than u think they are, trust me, they aint stupid

and, even though its 2nd hand, its still taxable

Aiyoo...

The past 3 years I've driven back to JB, I went to SG about 7-8 times, only stopped by MY Customs twice. Once I was carrying about 60 pieces to mixed clothing, that one I got away lah because the Customs officer was very kind. 2nd time, the see my luggage area, got a 10" sub and a rear strut bar, then simply let me off la. Only thing I had beside me was a sticker kit for Ducati MotoGP rep, that one didn't kena lah.

Well, it's been a while since I've driven to SG, so I dunno how the MY Customs are.

How they classify / rate your 2nd hand stuffs when there's no receipt for it?

kekekke, eh, if avbody bring things in from spore and claim no receipt how? go figure

sometimes hor... no matter how calm i am, cos used to it
sure kena check if i bring things one, everytime i come back empty handed, sure tak kena check one, dunno why...

OK. Will probably go tomorrow.

really envy those stay near JB can easily go over sg to buy cheap stuff
those in KL pulak have to add in petrol+tol and need to play big small dice games with kastam for taxes

This one really hits the nail in the coffin! Hehehe!

upscale is add pixel for any resulotion.....but upconvert is convert from lower resulotion to higher resulotion without adding the pixel
