if the phone local got i think you better buy it at local
if you buy at oversea, custom might will hold your item for tax & sirim

why? because i can get the phone much more cheaper around 1.6k~

USD 350 = RM1225

but in malaysia i cant find this kind of price. the least is RM2800..

so i'm just thinking of buying phone from overseas

pay using paypal.
buy insurance for the postage.
if anything happen, report to paypal and they will rollback the fund to you if u win the case.
else, buy in ebay.com and pay with paypal. Buy from powerseller and pay for postage which have insurance. Anything happen then u have protection.

USD350? I suggest TS just forget about it, most probably it's a scam. Don't you think the pricing are way too low?

Using paypal is advantage to you because you as buyer will be protected. Just buy thru ebay using paypal. And also remember whether the phone that you want worth it or not if you buy outside Malaysia.

Hello ,

How are you this morning ?

We have confirmed your payment and the order has been transfered to our head office .

So your order has been modified to meet up to that quantity and the 3 units of the (Nokia N96 1GB) was shipped out this morning.

Minimum order is 3 units, and you get 1 FREE.

So in all, we shipped to you 4 pieces Nokia N96 16GB, But you have already paid for 1 unit, You are to pay for extra 2 units and the last 1 is free.

This operation was carried out under the act of business policy / agreement in our head office.So we would advise that you dont over react on this issue and do not take it as an annoying thing.

You are required to pay for the remaining 2 pieces of the (Nokia N96 16GB) = $720 dollars.

Please get back to us as soon as possible so we can discuss further
how you would send the money and the exact time your package will be delivered to your doorstep.
