As per topic title, I want to ship my graphic card to China, but been asking some companies like MyPost and etc they all reject to accept my order as they said it is not possible to declare and get pass the customs in China. I don't have big quantities, just plan on shipping one for repair because last time I bought it from China also. Can I do FedEx/DHL?

ems/poslaju cannot do?
but then again be prepare to pay tons of delivery charges.

I used Pos Malaysia previously, shipped a modem back to China for refund.

I am fine paying the tax since it's already lost its value now as it is spoiled. Malaysia repair shops I can't trust anymore because all busy fixing mining cards and been put there for very long and not fixing my card.

May I ask how long ago was that? I went after the online ones because they got specific channel for electronic items, but they said it's closed already..

wait, you dont have friends there that can act as an agent on your behalf?, makes me wonder why you are expecting warranty out of the item you bought there unless you are staying there for long period of time.
have you make RMA claim first? they should provide the correct instruction to send the spoil item to them, but of course the delivery of your item to those address is under your responsibility.

Ahhh.. so you had someone there to help you to clear it? I'm not sending over to claim for warranty but more like because no one can repair my graphic card here, been almost half a year but the people charge very expensive and also not repairing, since the people are more focused on repairing mining cards.

Have you contacted china side?

They usually dont repair stuff, just change a new one.

Cost to repair is more than making one

your place got SF ? If got ask them see can help or not ?

Fedex / DHL can, no issue declare as returns, attach invoice.

if you're sending for repair instead of claiming warranty, just suggesting to do it locally, less hassle and cost less I guess? just need to search for people or shop

I suggest giving up and write off the graphic card.
It is not worth the effort to do so due to the tax both way.

a gpu repair is about 50% of the cost of the gpu. There is a few small repair companies making money out from this or taking advantage of the situation

Contacted the person at china, they said another customer from malaysia returned to them also using SF no issue.

Got, I contact already today. SF says used already cannot ship. Only can ship new item and if ship new item need recipient IC. The recipient I contacted him just now, he says he doesnt want to simply give his IC to me... Sien arh go around so big circle

I called FedEx, they said can, but need to beware of the import tax gaogao for electronic items. And need recipient IC... Which I cant get, because the recipient says he doesnt feel comfortable giving me his IC

Local shop tried already.. they all put my card for months and in the end I still need to pick up the card unfixed. They all busy repairing mining cards

Baru beli beberapa bulan lepas ja..

got people want to buy my card for RM500.. but I doubt they just gonna buy and send to repair and sell for higher price only. But I bought that card for RM2.8k also

Card faulty ?

Ship the item and declare secondhand/faulty item
Put low value

When ship back here declare rma coz u not buying, its yours in the first place

Not mandatory IC, just recipient need to do clearing there by him/herself which add couple days to the procedure. As long right name and contact number. Send and returned item, not you sending as a selling shipment. No tax to them. You’re returning right?

I suggest you just get another, its extremely difficult to ship it back into china and those companies are being honest to you, do not do it, you are wasting your money, maybe you need to send 10-20 times then only 1 time will get pass.

China do offer money to certain manufacturer producing products selling oversea, so when things go out they can claim money from the gov, so they will not allow things go out claim money, come back, go out and claim money again.

Even on company level its extremely difficult. Especially if the item is used/second hand. I believe China have very stringent policy on these. Probably worried they will be used as dumping ground.
My company tried sending something back to repair, my vendor told us to never declare it as repair or used.
On a personal level, a seller in aliexpress rather send me a new watch than to have it return.

Do a video and prove to the seller that the graphic card is faulty and request him to send you a new one. He doesn't need the defective card back as it is not economic to repair. Usually they just replace with a new one.

correct, they dont have any ppl to repair anyway, they will just dump your spoil unit and give you a new 1, they just need to make sure you dont scam them.

china always ask people to ship back the item to get it fix / replace,

In fact, they know it is almost impossible to send back to china because of customs/ or shipping fees being more expensive than item, oversea buyers usually just give up..

This is how china do businesss.

Super easy for anything that is going out for china / Super hard for anything to get into china.

That is why china is super rich due to the in flow of money into the country

If you buy anything from China, treat the item as if there is no warranty. This should exclude items which are expensive and and are liable to need service such as graphic cards and smartphones.

TS have your tried to check with those that are able to fix PCB boards instead?

FedEx and other courier companies blocked me from filling up the shipping form when I told them it's used item. They said it's impossible to import used item.

Yah, want to return. But I already used it for a few months sadly. So it's not new anymore..

Is it the reason why..?? No wonder all courier companies stopped me immediately when I told them it's used item.

I tried to send using my own company with company invoice and all. But just like my previous replies, they said impossible to enter China if my price too expensive/the item is used. Which I can't declare as new or used. Since new item is too expensive already..

Bought from a computer shop in Taobao. They said needs to send in to check up to confirm first..

But I don't think it can reach their hands right now with this situation haha

Yah, but shipping foods and clothes seem very easy and fast. No block at all.

Not expecting for warranty to be honest. Just want to get it fixed is what I want. But who knows malaysia here also macam main wayang kulit/taichi with me, never repair my card

Not yet haha, any recommendations?

Well if you figured out a hole we can abuse, please share it, thanks =P
[i mean sending electronic items back into china]

Only way, if you know someone going to China, ask him to carry the card in and post it inside China. But I seriously doubt you will get any good outcome. The seller insisting to have the defective card back (instead of proof that the card is defective) knowing that it is almost impossible to send any used item into China does not give any confidence on his sincerity.

As you said, someone offers to buy the card for RM500. It may be wise to cut your loss.

So guys, I sold my graphic card to an unknown person from FB.. He bought it at Rm450, I know it's quite cheap but at the same time I really am tired after looking high and low for after almost 6 months+...

Mind sharing with us what model of graphic card you bought from China? Are you sure it is genuine and not a Chinese knock-off?

Gigabyte GTX2060, not knock off. Came with official sealed box

You mean an RTX2060? There is no GTX2060 unless it is a fake. China can imitate any box.

For a RTX 2060 the price of RM2.8K you paid for a China supplier with dodgy warranty is very high. You could have purchased for the same price or less from a local supplier.

Nvidia 20 series don’t have GTX only RTX
