It is always based on the size of the package (dimensions) as well as the weight of the package. So I can't really give you any guidance on it.

The last time I spent about USD$1.5k on car parts from the US, the shipping cost for Buyandship was around RM400+

Used to buy a lot from Amazon & US Ebay last time.
During those time, all PC components were tax exempted.
Not sure whether now got tax

goddamn, can the new government put a stop to this nonsense

in fact,we should be INCREASING the threshold to RM 3000.00 for goods bought under personal or received as gift

why first world countries always get it right but Malaysia regressing all the time

Our country is poor.

as long as we don't mimic first world and prepare for it, we will never get there.

If based on 2022 Perintah Duti Kastam, still no tax for either import or export.

all headers under 8471 has 5% SST

good, will pass, warranty also good

It will definitely pass kastam

You just have to pay tax.

Tax for pc is 5% but you will have to pay 10%, extra 5% goes to the courier who becomes your runner

When I buy stuff from amazon, usually shipped by ups.

Plus waited for extra weeks or months lol

hmmmmmmm i plan to get Moondrop from taobao, so can kaotim also xD?

3rd party forwarder can even gaotim flammable.


last time i buy alot Gunpla item ( paint, thinner, all flammable )

Pandai pandai use parcel forwarders la.. ram n ssd still ok, cos they last n nt expensive

Bought plenty of stuff on taobao, shopee, never got tax. They were single item value >RM500 . Bought computer case from Ncase worth RM900 one time ship from Taiwan also no tax.

Only time I got taxed was when I bought 4 copies of games total value >RM400. And the kastam was spot on too, because I did plan to sell some of those games.

sounds pretty reasonable actually, considering its car parts. PC parts are much lighter.

Lol so many misinformation.

Upon checking out, it'll list the total including a "import fees deposit" (if any).

After paying, any extra tax or duties during the shipping Amazon will cover. If less or none, they'll refund to your card.

Any problems or item missing you can return and it'll be covered by Amazon. I've even received my refund without needing to return an item before. Got my money back and kept the item. Probably cost them more to deal with the return.

(This applies to items fulfilled and shipped by Amazon only not third parties sellers on their site)

I just bought a cpu 2 months back during their sales. 0 tax.

Overall cheaper RM500+

Only bought CPU? What about buying mobo etc?

Get those shipping and tax included

I bought many things Liao, if more than they collected they pay, if less they refund, I bought car stuffs normally kena tax like fuck but Amazon settle

OR I use forwarder buyandship, they have delivery duty paid option. They settle taxes for you as long you declare honestly, one price only.
