all this (Y)...

Some buyers are too particular... if you really want cheap , you buy yourself.... I kind hearted offered to bring in for ppl at cost price (Us set), some still say too expensive (i don't earn) or don't want to pay deposit....

In the end ordered for some guys here, luckily they got it from me.. The price damn cheap as compared to the carousell price

They wan cheap wan good, yet jitao complain or ask repeat question.... See people buy then also want join in but cheapo and say unreasonable....

Then they should be reasonable go to the country and buy themselves :s13:

Bro there are different type of complaints.

1) Buy already then complaining that it is expensive. This is the unreasonable type.

2) Complaint but don't buy. This is the smart and cautious type.

Whatever it is, it is a free market. Seller can choose to sell at sky high prices. But if there is no buyer then no use. So seller must bring down price until there is a buyer. And that will be a fair price for both.

For those complaining price, no comments but ask yourself if u are hp bengkia how much will you sell.

PSA for perspective

Aus

1419aud x 7% gst
=$1610sgd as cost price

$1610+$60 shipping+ insurance
=$1670

Germany
(Cost convert SGDxGST) +Shipping
$1660+60=$1720

India
(Cost convert SGDxGST) +Shipping
$1675+60=$1735

UK Set
(sold out usually cause of brexit affecting exchange rate)

(Cost convert SGDxGST) +Shipping
$1500+60=$1560

(Google pixels are selling fast world Wide and can tahan the hype because it is that good)


Buyer self cost if buy online using VPN for RoW set.

As long as not launched in SG and you want a superstar features phone you gotta pay.

Confirmed its S$600? I was told its S$400.

Was thinking of buying a product and ship in, but amount is more than S$400 but lesss than S$600, so decided not to follow up on it.

Wah, if its really above S$600 then need to pay GST, then I better hurry hand hurry leg proceed to buy and ship in..

Yes, as mentioned by others, $600 for carry-in if you've been overseas for more than 48 hours, otherwise only $200 (if I remember right). Shipping in/import/by freight is $400.

For those complaining price, no comments but ask yourself if u are hp bengkia how much will you sell.

...

Your GST calculation is not correct. GST is calculated based on item value + freight + insurance, not just item value. There is additional admin charge of $20 if courier will need to pre-pay GST on behalf of you. There is also additional 5% charge from GST amount.

If you want cheap, either buy it yourself while you're overseas, or get a friend to bring it back when they're back. I did the latter. Costed me S$1204 for my 128GB 5" Pixel from JB Hifi.

If neither options are available to you, then prepare to pay more. Importing isn't free.

Google already worked on it and is still working on it w updates rolled out.
They starting a new daydream standard for android ma so surely it will keep optimizing it.

http://www.theandroidsoul.com/google-pixel-and-pixel-xl-update/

Gets hot with highest brightness and all, then again Google has released an update to underclock the phone when using daydream.. Also, the phone material makes it a bit hotter than other phone because it is aluminum so it will be abit hotter yet dissipate heat alot faster (worth it)

Go try VR.. Shiok.. We buy pixel for assistant and VR ma.. Plus headset not ex

Or unlocked mobiles for UK. They are marking up (VAT deducted) because the closest international shipping Clove is still OOS.

Owned 2 5x (ULM + Clove), tried to swap my ULM set for warm tint before the fix, after money out of wallet expect little or no CS.

Clove UK still OOS, but has good CS and very responsive, proper RMA process and will follow up.
