    Usps Priority From Usa To Thailand

    in Jobs, Economy, Banking, Business, Investments

    Posted

    Old post but still relevant..

    Never EVER! Use USPS, USstamps, UPS when you order online!

    USPS: Costum clerance in thailand takes minimum 2-3 weeks when commiing from USPS

    USstamps: Custom clerance in Thailand takes minimum 2-3 weeks when commiing from USstamps

    UPS: Custom clearance in thailand takes minimum 1-2 weeks, and they will ask you to send them all kinds of info, copy passport, visa + have you sign documents, all before they deliver the pack.

    They will hold you hostage/randsom, what i mean is they will over charge you like hell, and as long as you ask questions they will not deliver the pack until you accept the bill.. AND every day the pack is at there office, they will charge you around 250bath for storage... Its insane!!

    To all the way to order fast and cheap is: amazon.com, be sure seller is amazon.com, why??

    First of all pretty much every single time i order there, my pack is delivered here in phuket after 3-4 days!! yes 3-4 days!!! its insane

    Many many times i don't pay any import at all, and if you do, the amount will be paid and displayed on your order when you make it on amazon.com website. And the amount will be small!

    amazon.com Uses DHL..

    If you order from someone else make sure its DHL, they are the fastest, and the honest shippers i have used in Thailand!

    Fedex And Customs Scam

    in General Topics

    Posted

    Holy crap, the excat same thing happend to me: FEDEX SCAM, THIEFS!

    i win competition online, the only thig i pay is shipping from usa..

    when the pack comes it comes as a GIFT, but FEDEX wants an incoice, i call the company i win the price, ask them to send indvoice.

    they send indvoice: produckts at 0, statet gift, won in competition, and shipping 680 usd.. = invoice total 680 USD..

    Fedex now looks at how much they wwant to chat me, and tell me if i want the pack its 25.000 bath for them.. if not i have to pay to end it back to usa, if i dont pay they will keep the pack...

    FEDEX i hate you so much right now....

    And how long did it take FEDEX to bring the pack: 15 DAYS!!!

    ########## amazon.com / DHL IS THE WAY TO GO ###########

    i have orderd form them 3 times.they deliver so fast i dont beleve it.

    from usa to thailand my adress 4-5 days.

    and there is NEVER TAX on it, even when there is an invoice.. i have never ever payid any tax :)

    if you order from amazon, Be sure to look at what shop the item comes from, select amazon.. then its amazon thet ships your items = No tax.. why i dont know, but i like it a lot :)

    Here ill attach the images from when it was feature in XO autosport magasine..

    Videos will come on my youtube account..

    subscribe to the channel: http://www.youtube.c...DK?feature=mhee

    its in BKK now in one of the only shops that can do 2jz engines and single turbo.. ill go get it hopefully some thing next week..

    then engine is complete rebuild, paint engine room, and engine covers and stuff, and ill do the rest here in phuket..

    By the way its a Toyota Supra TT... single turbo conversion.. :)

    All is forgiven I am well and truly impressed, to be honest when I am living in Thailand on a more regular basis a Supra or RX-7 are definetly the cars I want to fang around in.

    Lemme guess Volk TE37's? If so I love those rims.

    Is that 800hp at the crank or at the wheels? Either way i'm guessing you went the T51R or T88 big single to get those sorts of numbers?

    If you dont mind me asking how much did the work and parts set you back in Thailand? You can PM me if you want to keep the details private.

    Also how does it drive with heaps of power? I've heard the big hp Supra's can have bad turbo lag but are rockets once the boost comes on

    the wheels in the ad was for that magazine only the car was not mine at that time, i have: Volk Racing GT-7 , and will change them to: Volk Racing GT-7 Gold like the picture below..

    130_0904_13_z+1997_toyota_supra+volk_gt7.jpg

    power: 800 to 900 at the wheels, but its unconfirmed, but at least 800, the shop making it perfect, did make it back in the day, and then it had 800, and we have made some upgrades :)

    800 is fine for me, 900 is better :) hahaha

    price: a beast like this will be finished about: 2.2 mill bath..

    you can find them stock, non modified for 1.5 to 1.8....

    Ive looked for mine for over a year.. and wanted a supra for 10 years.. first now when i moved to Thailand i have the time, money for it :)

    You know it takes time to care for your high powered car, its not as easy as having a Toyota stock from the dealer.. things will break!!

    LAG: hell yes, and that's how a big turbo should be..

    lag lag lag, and then nuclear explosion, and wheel spin 1,2,3 and maybe 4 gear :o)

    It drives nice, but you need to be skilled a bit! in a former drifter! M3 back home in my contry, and i race pro gokart here in Phuket..

    It has LCD limited slip diff TRD 1.5 way... that means it will not like other cars kick out the back, it will pull stright better, so you can just give it power, and it will burn rubber, and make 2 nice lines, and stay pretty stright :)

    LOVE it :)

    Ill change my hood to carbon and front bumper middle like this..

    (my hood is not the same, mine is custom made light wait fiberglass)

    i think it looks cool :)

    ohh forgot: Turbo: GARRETT GT45

    carbon fibre...why?

    Boy racer look

    I agree. I find it amusing in Thailand how so many cars have all these body kits, paint jobs, carbon fibre and spoilers but they still lack the power to rival even a basic V6 family car from Australia or Europe. Personally I would put my money into going faster not looking like I was auditioning for "Initial D: The Live Action Movie":P

    Mine has 800-900 Horsepower :)

    It looks like a street racer, and it is a street racer :)

    CRG dos have a dealer in thailand.

    but crg website data on thai dealer is all wrong..

    both mail and phone number is wrong.. what a joke..
