Title: Carrying items from US
Post by: Nikkie on Jun 15, 2013 at 12:52 PM: Magpapauwi sana ako ng PS4 kung aabot since uuwi dito in-laws ko sa November. Question ko is mahaharang ba sila ng customs kung iuuwi nila ng boxed pa?

It's really random when they ask travellers to open their luggage. Not sure what is their criteria in flagging down people for further inspection but then again, I don't think 1 unit will be an issue.

Ipatanggal mo sa kahon, balutin ng towel or kumot yung PS4 palagyan mo na din ng bubble wraps para sigurado ka, ilagay sa maleta. Yung kahon (flattened) at styro ilagay sa ibang maleta or pwede na nga itapon yan eh. Kung sakaling masita, declare it used. Solb! ;)

Ask toys4geeks how he carry his epson PJ from US.

I don't think na mahaharang yan, i've brought in more expensive and bigger items, wala namang issue.

yes sir ... brought in Bose Companion 2 speakers and Nintendo Wii last year, and another Bose Companion2 last May ... i actually just have those on a large plastic bag and almost in plain sight pero di naman pinansin

yung Companion2 speakers are small, but the box is around twice that of Nintendo Wii

Post by: jackryan on Jun 20, 2013 at 05:28 PM: just act normally when you pass by the customs officer... unless commercial quantity, it should really not be an issue.

of course, it helps a lot that it is no longer in the original packaging...
