BEWARE wif dealing non-locally n unknown ppl!

It means ur words could be unreliable as there's chances u're one-sided,bias,prejudice or somewhat.Especially when u mentioned 'i talked to him(the T guy) before and discussed about the matter'.A personal relation is what that could make u an unreliable source.

That was what i was implying because you were supporting someone that neglected his responsibility in part of the trade,which is unbelievable.Someone is cying out loud for not being careful,while u are supporting the irresponsible person.

That's all.
Peace.
 
jack.. i dont see the need to remind firez that some part of this is his fault. he has already admitted that from the start. (i dont see (T) coming out here to admit any part of wrongdoing.) If theres any further criticism, it should be reserved for (T). wth, the least he could have done on that day was to SHOW UP for the deal.

Firez was trying to make things easy for the other person by going out of his way, asking sis bf etc to drive the PA system down for mr (T)... he doesnt deserve a 3.8k fine for that.
 
Firez is still trying to sell the item on SOFT, does that mean the item is in Singapore or Malaysia? Again, Firez has not explain how the $3.8k come into place. Is it a fine or tax?

Guys, if I order something from say, Sweetwater (http://www.sweetwater.com) and I am told to pay $500 for it. Do you think anyone will still want to go through with the deal if suddenly you have to pay $3k extra for the item because Sweetwater was asked to pay $3k at the custom for what reason we do not know?
 
James, I think this is one of those unfortunate situations where no-one is completely wrong or 100% blameless. Some assumptions were made, a few things left unsaid, and then add in a not-very-transparent system at the Causeway, and people end up stuck in the proverbial creek. It's just a very sad case. As I said earlier, let's see if FireZ wants to take steps to try recovering the money.

If this "T" buyer can come in with his side of the story, that might help. He should not just remain silent.
 
yo peeps...as like wat mention earlier..i'm paritally in fault..very first... i dunno tat there is a tax for singaporean...for wat i know...if malaysian brings in thing to malaysia, there will b heavy tax which is wat (T) told me...but didn't mention abt local...so..i assume is a fine...
like wat i very very earlier ago mention...is the custom..not malaysian people..coz they keep assuming my sis they all bringing in 2nd hand stuff when they did mention clearly tat it is not...
regardin to soft question, ya..the P.A is in singapore now...already paid fine...no point leaving in malaysia.....now still trying to sell it off fast..coz i left it at my sis bf house..dare not bring home..else my mum will suspect n start questioning...

as for this thread....is jus a warnin to all tat, take note of the tax tat's available in malaysia... wat i learn was, know the other party's law b4 entering...

conclusion..let me know if any1 interested in this P.A set...not very available in e market le...
cheers
 
you still didn't answer the question by James dude , perhaps you might want to try typing in English as well
 
ok from what i can see.. firez might not have typed it well for us to understand or missed some things out.
i feel sorry for u bro,i cant really understand what u are going through but i can only imagine that its very awful..ur in ns,broke 3.8k.. sad..

First u need to clarify everything with ur 2 sisters, sis bf,bro in law,and friends about what happened what the officers name or whatever officer they talked to about the case.

second i suggest u find this guy.. find someone who have deal with this guy b4 has u said he has sold some items cause if he's part of this he should be able to help u cause ur selling the things to him and he didnt turn up though theres not prove he's the only one who can help u now.. u guys didnt sign anything has in evidence to prove u guys agreed to deal u hardly mention his name too if u can provide his details maybe we can help u cause i dealed with alot of malaysien people bringing my guitar there and stuffs though i didnt pay taxes i just wait at the customs..

1 time i tiou caught at customs for having a chewing gum wrapper in my bag which was empty its just a plain wrapper nothing else no chewing gums.. and was crumpled they fine me a ridiculouse $800 and said if i didnt pay up they would send me to jail and i was afraid so i paid and later at home told my parents they told me it was a scam,my mum is from malaysia she knows.. she ask me the same questions people are asking u now,officer name?
receipt? and documentation? and that $800 was saved so long for a strat i wanted to buy back then but couldnt and i feel sad...i just sold something at jb for $1.2k and i have to fork out $800..wtf..now im just sticking to a 10 years old squier heavy fat strat which i dont use much but no choice..

what i can learn from this is to always have details of the person your selling/buying
take caution,take his number,take his name,take his address.not trying to tell u to be a stalker just to be cautious
make sure its a fair deal.. not like u go over he later doesnt confirm hes there..or the price isnt what u mentioned i deal with this alot times my rg i sold kena lowball because tons of his friend kept begging me.. that time i sold my pedal got this nice guy lowball me $5 off the price and his gf also beg me.. i was like wtf!?bringing ur gf to get guys give a $5 off the pedal his sellin? but its ok cause i accepted the lowballing but i dont like lowballers even if its $1 u say this price ok then u lowball what the f*** dont do this kind of things plz.. i think i said much will end it off here to firez if there's any help u need u can call me..
bro here to help fellow softies out! 96589565 cheers =)
