QUOTE(Ramjade @ Feb 27 2025, 03:20 PM) Just buy directly from the company and use a forwarder to ship to Malaysia. Sometimes could be cheaper than iherb cause iherb do jack up the price. Last time iherb was cheap. So many forwarder that can ship to Malaysia. How? The company wont even ship to oversea, only in US. So ask the company to ship to a forwarder in US and then the forwarder ship to me? I have to go to custom to clear import tax etc?

A certain local brand shows the same greed and keeps on raising prices every few months. They do not sell on iHerb and I was replacing their products with others on iHerb. So now just nice for them.

The courier usually settle all the tax and customs for you. You might need to pay the courier the taxes for the courier to release the item to you. So many to choose.

U can ask doctors especially GP how many times drug price increase per year. 4-5 times is common.

I think it's some regulations/changes at the custom/courier had 2 orders during CNY period first one was finally delivered after long delay (when the local courier thought they havent received it, but I just received it one day out of the blue) second one was cancelled before it was picked up from their warehouse, and i got the refund shortly after
Either custom got stricter or their courier partner for malaysia fucked up. shall wait and see

Govn always said care for rakyat. Why govn dont allow rakyat to buy cheaper supplement (same brand, same item) from reputable oversea stores, instead force us to buy from local pharmacies which is 2-3x more expensive. Do note even including import tax and shipping, buying from iherb still 2-3x more cheaper.
Sad, hope someone here got connection pls tell our PMX and Minister of Health.

Used to frequent Shopee/Lazada to buy certain supplement. Now they stopped selling those supplements due to jacked up commission rate from Laz/Shopee. Not sure what to do now because even iherb is temporarily suspended..
