Shopping Trip In Jb

Recommended Posts

Hi all,

For those who are keen on going to our neighbors to get your electrical stuff, here is a preview of what you can get.

Unfortunately, this is all that I could fit into my car...

Elmark UFO fan with dimmer lights & remote (DMD 5)

Elmark 921 fan with remote (EMD 4)

Details of the fans can be found on www.elmark.com.sg.

The rest are 4 inch PLC lights with two 18W lamps & ballast.

The damage?

Elmark UFO - RM 285 (S$ 127 after paying GST at Customs Tuas)

Elmark 921 - RM 188 (S$83 with GST)

PLC lights - RM 28 ($12.30 with GST)..

Cheers!

Thnk you once again for the info.check with you when you declare ur items to immigration do they need to see the items as well as the receipt .also so far how are the fans and lights that you bought any defect found?

I passed by the Tuas checkpoint and entered the red lane. Showed receipt, paid the tax and went to secondary clearance. Thereafter, the immigration/customs officers just glanced at the items & receipt, and let us pass. That's it.

For the lights and fans, so far I haven't installed. Will keep you posted. But anyhow, the shop checked and inspected every single piece of item physically in front of the buyer. With 46 PLC lights, 92 ballasts and 5 fans to check, can you imagine how long it took them?

depends on how individuals look at it on their own perspectives,for me its definitely a no-no considering all the hassles like time taken to travel,testing of all items,custom clearance and not forgetting most scary part = rampant day light robbery,theft and so on...just cant imagine fate of losing my car for a pittance saving...

Wow,

I just called up one of the shops to check on this Alpha V6 fan. They are selling at S$360, excluding installation. Installation is $35. Seems like getting from JB is much much cheaper,even with the additional of 7% GST. FYI

Cheers!

This is the best I can do thus far. For those interested in JB shopping for lightings and fans, this is the most simplified route I can offer on map.
