Any one have experience ordering PC components like CPU, motherboard, RAM etc from Amazon.com US site? Want to upgrade PC and I notice price from Amazon is 30% cheaper than local price, but am worried it will not pass Kastam.

But I used a freight forwarder service ( Buyandship.com.my) instead of direct shipping. Means, Amazon US -> B&S US address -> HK -> MY doorstep
