Lazada many seller selling kindles cheaper than Amazon

Lol

Last year I check only Singapore can leh

slowpoke. not all anyway. koloz.

bought my paperwhite via shopee. Cheaper from amazon US. Main thing is ads free.

its weird, even now and then when im searching for a tech stuff in shopee/lazada sometimes its ship from japan. sometimes even cheapest which is mind boggling.few years ago even thing like comp periphel ship from japan its almost close to none

Slow. I have been buying stationary from amazon japan for quite some time already.

Still Singapore get more than us. Two locations almost same distance but one gets everything while another one limited goods. Never understand the rationale. Did we get sanction by USA for some items or something?

fixed

Rebd dvd will kena rampas kastam anot

mcm pedro pascal

Come 1April there will be import tax for <rm500?

Delivery fee how much?

ok Amazon promoter

anybody know what is the procedure going forward when april 1st the parcel value less than Rm500 also kena tax, if we buy from say amazon japan or oterh 3rd party sites, how arh?

soft on demand got?

got what must buy?

Really? Cheaper mer?

Delivery free?

I guess maybe if Japan nak ship to Pelabuhan Klang, they must go through SG first? I dunno lol.

theres an estimated import fees already included inside the costing when you checking out for amazon jp

last time dont have this. i think proper calculation once item arrived will be charged.

recently bought an item from US they charged me duty tax to pay during receiving lol

Even Singapore already has this since last year when Singapore Amazon ship everything to Malaysia

Now Japan Amazon ship everything to Malaysia, it implemented the same thing

I believe Amazon already strike a deal with Government in tax department

Actually now compared to last year, we are considers to be able to get everything from Japan Amazon

Check it out

means duty tax pay during cod style? damn.....have to factor in the tax to see if worth it to buy a not d...

true but recently i couldnt trace the exact courier delivery to my house,
just got a call only, but yeah delivery less than a week from japan

yeps, means more cost passed down to consumer

and there was i thinking its one of the cheaper methods to get JP stuff haiz. shouldve bought more last time lol

assuming its the same process, yeah

good news is amazon JP shipping is still much more affordable than other amazon. im looking at amazon US where item shipping = or > than total item bought kek

Really can order from Japan? I wanna order PS2 slim used. Can be done and how much total tax include if sent over to MY?

At least PeeH-BeeN is doing some work now !!!!

unlike puas everyday racing to the sky.

Not saying Unity are doing best, but if opposition can get their act together and be a good check and balance, gomen would work best.

But opposition everyday, doing sampah work, RnR issues no.1, KPI is attend weddings and funerals, say menu rahmah can cause autism then 17min criticize budget with intro but no constructive comments and no shadow budget.

tenga

u will forget puisi

the shipping is more expensive than the item i want to buy lol..

No. The tax already add during when you check out

This is good

No shocking tax

Yes because tax prepaid so shipping is damn fast now


The good thing about prepaid import tax is we are no longer get shocking tax memo to pay tax for release

Amazon already guaranteed the tax.

Yes can go Amazon Japan to check it out

It's not PH

Already started since last year with Amazon Singapore
It's just a continuity because Amazon struck deal with Malaysia tax departmenr

yeah but its still vague to me, not fully confirmed

it says specifically "Import Fees Deposit"

sounds alot like it can change

interesting. why do you want a kindle?
my dad gave my daughter a kindle for her birthday but we never use it.

all the ebooks need to buy through amazon india which is a bit of a hassle. and i couldnt really understand why i would want to read it on a kindle instead of just on my phone.

The only thing can change is overpaid. They will give you back the money

It's already confirmed that's the tax.

They already have deal with the government

Same like Lazada

You no longer worried about tax.

Should start a group Amazon JP order thread.

why? got any different?

Free shipping?

Normal stuff cause we are not developed country so they only want to entertain developed country and get business from there. We are kind of not trustworthy when it comes to online shopping. Lol.

guys, the account between amazon.com and amazon.co.jp is separate?

yes, neeed to create new account

Thank you. I just wanna buy Steam Controller (used).

only way to find out, ill be buying it soon anyway once confirmed all the goods

Most of the time it is cheaper even after including delivery

Please update.

I bought from Amazon Singapore and the item arrived without any problem on tax. It's just like buying from Lazada lol
And arrive very quickly from USA.

US yahudi price...affiliated also yahudi....

Since when? 2015?

Not sure exactly when. But for i have been using for few years already.

No free shipping. Shipping start from 800 yen.

If you want free shipping try amazon.sg. But the price would be different.

You don't realise the changes?

More stuff are available to purchase and includes import tax.

Cheap. Is Amazon jp fully in Japanese?

Adui, everything is in English leh

Just go amazon.co.jp and see yourself la

When searched, it become Japanese.

this morning i just bought something costing Yen14,007 with my cc.... a few hours later, bank apps notify Yen140.07 was charged to my cc. Am I gonna get just some plastic bag/box (without the actual stuff that I purchased) in the parcel?

Or you can use translate with browser

Lol good luck

As usual to be safe, make sure sold by Amazon

I will stick to Amazon us. Stuff I want not available on Amazon JP.

oh no...the 'sold by' is not written as 'Amazon' but some Japanese wording which translate to 'Matsumoto Online'.

Got link to the item?

This link

The shop link

Its a used item..I think only 1 item left which I have bought and its not showing on the store of seller anymore.

click on the japanese flag next to search bar in browser to change to english

It's new seller without feedback.

High chance you kena scam

You need to contact Amazon

Fyi, when I deal with Amazon USA, it's pretty good. They will just refund.

My setting already English. When search it still Japanese lol

ahh..okay, I'll request xancel and refund.

Ya I will be wary if the seller is new and zero feedback.

Are first time buy from Amazon?

yep...first time buy from Amazon.

So I gave it a go and ordered my first item from Amazon Japan (mobile phone).

Summing up my experience:

11-Sep:
Ordered the item on Amazon JP (Amazon seller)

12-Sep:
Package left the carrier facility (I assume the warehouse) - JAPAN

13-Sep:
(1AM) Item was flown to Hong Kong
(8AM) Item arrived in Subang
(9AM) DHL informed me to process and submit SIRIM clearance
(12NN) Submitted the form from SIRIM website and informed SIRIM officer via WhatsApp.
(2PM) SIRIM officer approved the form and documents
(2:30PM) Paid SIRIM RM40 to get the Clearance letter
(2:30PM) Submitted the clearance letter to DHL via Email (and waiting for response)

So now, I'm waiting for DHL to acknowledge the clearance letter so they can send the parcel.


Side note for those asking why I purchased from Amazon Japan:
1. The phone model is not available in Malaysia
2. It is available in Amazon US and Amazon UK but wayyyyy more expensive. The price difference is RM1,000.

What phone? Sounds like good deal. Sharp Aquous R7?
Import tax already calculated inside the purchase price right?

confirm can use malaysia simcard? last time i bought 1, need to use some kind of bypass, not sure now

and sirim only rm40? i paid around rm100 last time when i bought from expansys

But does amazon Japan have all the products that is in amazon US?

Don't have

But it has some special Japanese stuff

Don't worry, it should be a legit seller. I encountered before the same thing, pricing show in Amazon JP and card charged is decimal different. But in the end statement still comes the actual cost converted to ringgit.

- It's a Motorola Edge 40 as I am a fan of Moto.
- Yes, import tax is already included in the calculation when you pay Amazon.
You could still pay a bit more OR get a refund if Amazon miscalculated the import tax. Based on my experience with Amazon US, I still received a tax refund because they charged me more than they should.

(I am still waiting for DHL whether I need to pay additional tax for this imported item)

All phones these days are global units unless you buy a CDMA phone (which is very rare since even Verizon Wireless in the US are using CDMA/GSM phones).
This is not my first time buying an imported phone so there should be no issue using Malaysia SIM.

What phone did you buy and why do you need to bypass?
RM100? Did you login to SIRIM and submit the application yourself?


Btw, if DHL is your courier, they will give you 2 options:

Option 1: You apply the SIRIM Clearance yourself -- which what I did. Login to SIRIM, submit all the documents and pay RM40.
Option 2: You let DHL do the "dirty work" which is not even difficult. You still need to send the all the document and they will submit the documents on your behalf.
How much will they charge? RM40 (for the clearance letter) + RM100 (DHL service fee) = RM140 LOL

Glad to know that, then I can start using Amazon Japan instead of going through proxy.

Already surf the website.

Hambar.

Nothing interest me to buy from that website

any import tax or sst?

one of the most effective way to __________________ ____________ if u know what I meant

If you buy from Amazon, they will add "Import Fees Deposit" from the total amount.
The calculation of import fees is based on the receiving country. Take note it is JUST AN ESTIMATE. So either you get back a few ringgits or pay more if the calculation is not right.

So to answer your question, yes it has import tax/SST which is already included in the total amount you paid to Amazon.

why so complicated one via amazon? I have bought countless of electronic devices from china never kena tax

Thanks for the info, didn't remember the model, it was back in 2016 i think, guess now already no need, i only sent email to sirim last time, good to know there's a system now.

What is complicated? Did you know when you buy from Shopee/Lazada/Aliexpress etc, you also paid for the tax?
They are not telling you if you paid too much tax but they already added the tax amount on the product itself. This is applicable to both overseas seller and local seller.

All items you buy online include tax already in the total price you paid the seller.

yeah I am aware of that

but so far only amazon and ebay implement the "Import Fees Deposit"

They just give you more info 😁

so far when I buy from china, no need sirim

too bad they also stopped shipping some stuffs to here as well. i bought 3-4 HDD before, can be as cheap as half the price selling here (even after tax and shipping) if you don't mind warranty. it gets here fast too with DHL, normally 2-3 days. now non of the seller willing to ship here anymore... i wonder why...

"Import Fees Deposit" = Tax
They put "deposit" instead of just "Import Fees" because there is a BUFFER. It's like you putting more money to them because they are not sure of the exact amount and they will give you back some of the tax deposit if you paid too much based on the customs calculation. Take note Amazon is dealing with 100+ countries = 100+ different governments.

You may ask how come Shopee and others have paid the exact amount? The answer is NO.
They may have charged you MORE but you do not get any refund. You just don't know it.

ok amazon gatekeeper, thing is, not every electrical device I bought from the platform itself, some I bought directly from my contact

rm 0 taxes paid at KLIA

I think some people are confused why need SIRIM how come when I bought outside of Amazon no need SIRIM...

The answer is.. Shopee/ Lazada/ Aliexpress already have paid SIRIM and the amount is included in your item.
Then someone will again ask -- how come you need to deal with SIRIM yourself which is so much hassle? Because Amazon did not do it for you that is why their phones are wayyyy cheaper.

Then someone will say, you can buy cheaper phones elsewhere... The answer is this is only true for CHINA phones ONLY like Oppo/Vivo/OnePlus etc.
Try buying a Samsung/Apple from China and you will have the same price. This is also the reason why you do not see an overseas seller selling iPhone because they will not earn that much from selling it.


Amazon caters those brands that you see in Western countries like Apple, Google, Motorola and other brands that are not officially available in Malaysia. So if these brands are not phone you maybe you just stick to Shopee then.

Good for you then. You're the best among the rest

Don't worry I know what you're saying. I bought phones from Fast Tech so no need to brag about it.
The thing is, not everything is available in 1 contact that is why we have different platforms.
