Computers and computer items are not taxed, even when shipped. I've had stuff sent from overseas before, when declared as computer items they're not taxed.

Unless you're getting the Macbook really cheap ie. closeout or refurb, aren't you spending more on the computer price + shipping though? Or are you shipping via USPS (bad choice!)?

i don't have to pay for shipping, family member is already sending a package. the best 2nd hand price i have been able to find on a c2d macbook locally is 3000 rm - i figure pay little bit more for a new one.

Make sure you're sending via Fedex/UPS/DHL. Don't risk it by sending via regular air mail, your package could get damaged or lost along the way...
