Hi guys. Anyone here has the experience of purchasing things from Japan and shipping using EMS?

I wanna buy 4 figures from Japan and the total price is around RM490+. The dimensions are around 30cm x 20cm x 20cm if they stack it properly and the weight is less than 1.5kg. Does it look too big to "attract" custom's attention?

Should I request the seller to underprice the item or label it as "Gift"? Does doing this help anyway to avoid from being held by custom?

from my experience dont consolidate and dont make packages big. i'd rather pay the extra shipping than go through all the trouble to drive to the kastam to take. Horrible experience and will encourage people not to make their packages noticable and pay for the extra shipping costs, unless someone else is paying for your Toll+Petrol, also highly recommended to go there very very very early and ask for every single form needed, because I didnt know what form I needed i keep going back and forth while the line grew longer and longer when a 30minute to 1 hour could finish turned into a 4-5 hour long process because the bloody morons there never told me I needed this and that.
