Shipping goodies to JB

[abh0r]

Hey all,

I'm from SG and I've recently shipped a pack of coil heads from ft to a JB address, and I was worried that it may get confiscated due to the state ban. Since I was tracking my packages I got a bit confused that it was withheld by the MY customs but yet still delivered in the end. I've attached a pic of the tracking progress.

My question is: Is there a chance that subsequent orders may get confiscated?

@abh0r What you are doing is knowingly importing illegal items. This means that if you get caught (it's not a matter of "will I get caught" but rather "WHEN will I get caught") you will have to face the punishment (Maximum 10k SGD and maximum 6 months of prison)

If you have to ask us whether the subsequent order may get confiscated, I feel that you

1. Have not enough balls to face the punishment
2. Not enough resources to face the punishment.

Therefore, I would advise you to stop. Because this kind of thing is all about whether you heng/suay. You may escape today but whether you escape the next day, well... Only you can find out. So do it only if you are prepared to face the consequences. Cheers!

Online to MY to SG. Item may get confiscated at SG custom.

I think he is ordering the item online to be shipped to an address in JB. From Where he can obtain just as most us people here obtain their Northern Juices.

I don't think he's planning to ship it to Singapore.

@abh0r

My mistake, I thought you were trying to ship to SG

Thanks @karedi

But I think my post still stands. The OP knew that the state bans vape gears, so he will just have to take the risk. I myself am not sure of the situation in Bolehland, so it really have to see heng/suay

Yup you're right @Karstine, he has to risk it. But the current state in Johor is quite ambiguous. And I think it depends on who or which company he's using.

got a friend in JB wanting to order from US some hardware.. Anyone knows if their customs is as fussy as ours?

Their ban only applies to walk-in shops.
Selling/buying online is still perfectly legal, as well as having in your possession and using (afaik including in public).
I see no reason for MY customs to confiscate any of these items whatsoever- merely to pay close attention to any massive orders to track it to possible underground shop.

Correct me if I'm wrong here.

I hear what Karstine is saying as it comes to the point where it will be brought to our sunny island - it's not any riskier than any other item brought across this border though.
