not sure anyone purchased Sony TV from Taobao before?
Looking at 65x90L. TB selling at 1400 + TB admin fee + 9% GST + Shipping fee = $1600.
Shopee PI is selling for around $2000 after the coupon.
Not sure if it is worth the risk to save $400?

I cancelled order aldy, the FALD not so good for TCL S5, so waiting for U8K or QM8 deals.

If you are keen on these 2, we might save some freight cost by buying together.

Yes, I was eyeing on the QM8 only. 65" QM8 was priced at $899 USD. But not sure how to get it shipped to SG. Vpost or borderlinx think too ex and the size is big.

Yes, it's not cheap, but still very affordable. Can check out myus dot com.

Is it worth buying a PC monitor from overseas? I'm looking for something around 24 - 26 inches, at least 100Hz, 1080p, 16:9. I want to get two of them. Are there any recommendations on a monitor and where to purchase it from?

Ordered and paid tcl c655 on 8aug 24. Till now no email regarding the delivery date. Managed to contact the after sale team, mentioned the tv out of supply and have to wait till 21 Aug. Really poor after service sale. Feel like scammed.

I direct imported TCL from China. Took near to 3 weeks to reach my door step due to bad weather.
