Ordering HIFI Speakers from overseas?

[Adam251]

As above; has anyone ordered hifi speakers from overseas before?? I wanted to order from a set of surround speaker system from Fluance website but Singpost (Vpost) said speakers are on the list of prohibited items and they can't deliver. But how can it be since many gadgets now have speakers eg laptops?

Anyone ordered before and what is the process? Thanks.

How come speakers are prohibited?

Speakers have magnets. Posting of items with strong magnetic field is prohibited.

I shipped my horn speakers via UPS before but that was many years back.

 

The seller should be able to arrange a suitable shipping method on your behalf. You will just have to pay customs duty, clearance fees and GST (if invoice value is >S$400 if I remember correctly) at our side.

 

You can also try posting your query at http://www.echoloft.com/hifi-forum/index.php. The forumers there should be able to guide you further.

If u order more than S$400....Yes u need to pay a tax unless u got purchase order from the shop to prove or else ask the owner to lower the cost below 400....simple and easy..
