hi..i just bought iphone 3gs from ebay last week...sadly, i dont know we need to pay tax+AP from sirim..it is my fault because i dont make a deep research before i bid at ebay...now i'm tracking my phone at USPS.

so i want to ask whether i can go to sirim directly first before i go to Custom? What documents that i need to apply the AP? I believe my phone will stuck at Custom...but now i live at KK sabah..hope i can settle all the process in my place here and get my phone.

and one more thing, the total cost that i need to get the iphone is more than the Maxis iphone!

the seller noticed me that the iphone is already unlocked and can use any simcard around the world..hope he was right.

yeah..It is my fault. Actually, that is my first time at ebay. i tried my luck to bid at ebay when i found the price of the iphone 3gs at lowyat forum and lelong around RM3k++. So i thought i can save hundreds. And i just found the threads about custom, AP and bla bla after i completed my transaction at paypal. Ironically, i also did not realized that maxis will launch iphone 3gs on 15th july. .i juz bought through ebay on 13th july.
but it is okey to me since i already make a payment to the seller. But now, with tax+sirim approval, i need to get one more shock.huh!.so just waste a warranty and the total cost.

so, after this no more ebay for me. better go to local e-trade as i did before.

i hope i will receive a letter or call from them next week to collect the phone.
