Is this really a money mind thread?
What do u mean ?
I'm thinking of buying a laptop from Amazon US too , But I'm not sure whether the plug they give will be type G(Singapore plug) or will it be plug A(US plug) so I'm not sure whether I'll need to buy a new charger all together . Please respond to my questions asap as I will be getting the laptop for school soon. Thanks once again!
This is not true. The prime membership that you have for SG is for local SG shipping and the local prime now website doesn't list Amazon US products. The prime now is pretty useless. I didn't find 1 useful product.now no more, but if u sign up Amazon SG PrimeNow still can get free shipping..
Plug will be US type. But you can buy a cheap $1.5 convertor.
Many of my devices are now of US type including my Redmi export phones, my laptop and my Roku streamer. I use the convertor for them.

I believe many US laptops are made in China, but they are priced much cheaper in US than in Singapore despite the former being much further from China.
Do we have to pay 7% GST when the item arrives?
You use those $1.5 converter only? I thought USA voltage and Singapore voltage different, so still need to buy some step up/down transformer/converter or something?
I think only china products use $1.5 converter enough because same voltage.
can don't pay the GST by under declare?By right is yes, over $400.
To me not worth to buy overseas.
Especially no warranty is a big risk.
Anything wrong either no warranty or
Go through a troublesome RMA.
Most laptop should have universal power adapter except the pin is US, UK or China.
If you got Credit card pay through installment.
Or take a loan to purchase.
Courts flexi plan especially for students are not recommended.
The high interest of 30% along other charges are not worth it.
can don't pay the GST by under declare?
Can. If you get caught you get charged with tax evasion and have to pay a few times the evaded tax lor.
how to under declare?
amazon don't do it right
U use USB cable to charge right ?You use those $1.5 converter only? I thought USA voltage and Singapore voltage different, so still need to buy some step up/down transformer/converter or something?
I think only china products use $1.5 converter enough because same voltage.
