Customs Import Duty for Purchasing Items Overseas

jinglohenglo — Tue, 05 Apr 2016 15:37:16 +0800

Hi there! I'm buying a custom-built mechanical keyboard from South Korea who will be assembling the keyboard and shipping it to me. Additionally, I'm also purchasing mechanical keyboard keycaps from a vendor in US.

Would like to know more about the customs/import duties rate for the following items based on their value:

Keyboard - total value: 350USD (plus shipping, DHL)
Keycaps - total value: 200USD (plus shipping, USPS first class)

Would anyone kindly enlighten me on the rates for these aforementioned items?

Would it be only 6% GST?

Your help would be greatly appreciated.

Looking for a computer service shop

Hi I've been wanting to ask does anyone know of any credible or trustworthy computer servicing shops in either Subang, Puchong or KL?

I'm looking mainly for:

1) Servicing of liquid cooled systems
2) Generally servicing of the desktop's internal component
3) Other miscellaneous services

I should also add that I built the rig on my own so I can't just approach a given brand's service centre, at least I think it doesn't work that way.

Main reason for looking: Concerned about doing maintenance/servicing on my own.

[WTA] PS3 Slim Bought from Japan power cord

jinglohenglo — Wed, 27 Aug 2014 12:03:47 +0800

Hello I recently bought a 2nd hand PS3 Slim Japan model from Yahoo Auctions Japan and to my understanding, the ps3 slim has built in universal power supply. However, I need some clarification on the power inlet and outlet (as in the power cord itself): do I need to buy a specific Malaysian power cord to replace the japanese power cord?snd if so where can I get it (I live in Puchong area)

Thanks in advance.
