    Default Need help on getting laptop


    to Mods, please help me get this to the right forum, thanks daan...

    fellow istoryans, patabang unta ko... consultation ni xa, calling all those who had been in the situation.. asking this aron d sd ko m.igno...

    if for example a friend overseas is planning to send me a used (as in 2nd hand) laptop, do i have to pay customs for any fees? if so, pila kaha n? if he gift wraps it and send it as a gift, would that keep it away from Customs and its (monster) fees?

    as far as i know, from a friend sd, they would charge about 10% of the appraised value sa item, in this case sa laptop...

    am just curious, tngali ang laptop is worthless n dd2 sa overseas (say London or US) and will even see some computer store websites n phased out n xa n model, pero when appraised by the Customs moabot xa ug mga 25K++. do they have the right to say its that high of a price? how do we them to understand n phased out n xa n model, or 2nd hand unit n xa...

    for guidance sake, help me understand and feed this curious mind...

    kng customs man gud mangitah nah sila paagi nga palisuran ka... based on exp lng ni hap..kng naay customs dha mayta chill ramu.. heheh btaw opinion rani nko, labi nah laptop makakita nah sila nga mahalun ila man gud nah abihan, pag.abot sa ako package nkita nko gisi nah ang karton sa ako product nga intact pman toh pagsend, naa may lain ways like imo ipasend sa imo kaila sa abroad through other means like mga dagko nga forwarders nga diritso sa imo balay i.send...sila nah bahala tanan. or unless naa ka kaila sa customs.. or unless under the table.. basi mkabarato ka ana..hehe mayta pod mkatiming ka wla dha ang taga customs sa receiving kay usa rmana ka agent nya d rest mga post office staff.

    I mean dli nka kelangan mudeal with customs kay sila nah bahala sa tanan either kuhaon ra nimo sa ila office like johnny air sa SM. Ang costs ana wla ko sure..daghan man type naay express , premium or regular...masbarato masdugay maabot so imo buhaton ron call lng sa mga forwarder ug ask unsa ila terms para accurate ang info imo makuha. Nya laptop la ko khbaw saon pag.compute or rules basta kng adto ka sa mga forwarder nga mu.offer ug door-to-door or claim sa ila office mas safe lng imo product ug mubayad man ka kas.a ra... no custom-hassle..

    sa ako experience first time.. labi nah khbaw ang custom nga firstime pka padala nya la pa au alamag, palisuran ka ana, I know they got their rules but to the point nga ing.nan ka nga dli nani makuha imo package? TY nani? dli mutabang bah, nya pag.last nakuha nko kay nkasupply jud ko documents(hinuon cellphone toh so naa jud NTC docs kelangan) pero kalagot lng bah ingnan ka :"dli nani makuha nimo..." bsan naa jud way..well pag.last atoh ni.ana ang custom nga "ung akin...next time nlng, ok?"
    SO ako maconclude bagah jud nawng.. mao d i nag.paliso2xran ka kay u know... I hope dli tanan customs atoh pero natymingan mao toh ang naghandle sah ako package.

    boss, parehas mo situation sa akong mom before, di nila e-release ang gipadala na laptop sa akong sis from canada kay pabayron nila og mga unsa unsa to. what my mom did is nanawag sya sa DYSS, nagpa tabang didto, pag sunod balik sa akong mama, g-release na without paying anything.

    in any government agency, you need media for them to move... dili lang kay customs.
