What is a deputy service?
Quite simply, I am your agent in obtaining items that you can't find in your country or is expensive or for any reason at all. This service extends to scouting for items, packaging and posting. You can say I am your middle (wo)man.

Why do I need a deputy service?
Quite simply, you need someone's help to purchase something when you can't do it yourself or you just want someone to do the leg work. There are many things that a deputy/agent can help or assist. My service is in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia which is a shopping haven. Granted, some things can be obtained in Ebay which are cheaper in other countries, but say that person does not ship to your country but it ships to Malaysia, FREE OF CHARGE. You really want that item. So how? Well, that's where I come in. I become your middle person, I buy from this Ebay account, receive the items, and re-send to you for a small fee plus shipping fee.
Another example is books. I notice some local books are triple the price in say, America. You really want that book. I find it for you (subject to availability) and buy it and post it to you for a small fee.
I will even assist in purchasing something from Kuala Lumpur to be posted to East Malaysia.
The good thing about stuff in Malaysia is instructions are mostly and always in English unlike in other countries, in their native languages. So that could be a factor for you to consider when you want to purchase something that is available here.

What can you do?
I can...
1. scout things for you, but you must be specific or if general, I find it, take a picture of of it and upload for you to confirm if that's it
2. I buy the items for you
3. I will take a picture and send to you as proof of purchase
4. I package it well, find the best postage deal (as Pos Malaysia do offer special rates for local packages and also packages to England), and post it out
5. You will receive your items hopefully in great condition.
top^
What can I do?
You can...
1. If you're not sure what you want, then be specific in your description so that I may find the item for you
2. If you know what you want and you see it in a website (Ebay, online store, online book store, etc), just give me the URL
3. Be patient since it takes time, postage included
top^
What won't you sell?
I am afraid plenty.
1. things that is banned here in Malaysia
2. things that is banned in your country, since we don't want to get into trouble
3. huge/big items
4. easily broken items
5. items with localised warranty. You can imagine how difficult to get the item repaired.
6. perishable goods except for air tight sealed snacks (such as dried fruits, etc)
7. Anything that you may suggest that may not be feasible to obtain
top^
What do you sell?
Almost anything except what I won't sell, the following is for INTERNATIONAL CUSTOMERS ...
1. small items
2. make up stuff (except perfume)
3. books, magazines (prebooked, ready for purchase, etc)
4. snacks permitted to be posted to your country
5. anything else that is permitted to be posted to your country
TO CUSTOMERS IN MALAYSIA (EAST MALAYSIA INCLUDED), all of the above and everything else! Maybe except live pets...

I am from Malaysia, I want to buy that shampoo from this shop, can you buy them for me?
Yes. But the shop must be in Kuala Lumpur region. Do remember the postage will cost you.
top^
I am from Malaysia, can I collect the item from you?
I am afraid not. I am also working during the weekdays and so it is inconvenient. However if the postage is expensive for a large item, this can be discussed. If anything, it must be in Kuala Lumpur region.
top^
What are the charges?
Very simple.
Actual cost of the items (in MYR or USD as applicable) + 20% fee (from actual cost not including postage) or MYR25, whichever is higher + MYR5 for packaging and handling (local)/MYR 10 for packaging and handling (outside of Malaysia) + Actual postage cost (EMS service/Pos Laju/other services requested by you but must be of EMS or similar) + Insurance (if you request it/if any) + additional 20% fee (from actual cost not including postage) or MYR25, whichever is higher levied for cases where scouting is required (where you require an item without specific description and I had to find it for you).
All in all, my fee is actually
1. 20% from cost of items or MYR25, whichever is higher
AND
2. additional 20% fee (from actual cost not including postage) or MYR25, whichever is higher levied for cases where scouting is required
I also provide other services such as mailing addresses, etc. That will however involve a different set of fees to be discussed and agreed between parties.

How will you send my items?
So as to ensure the items arrive at your given address in good condition and without much delay, all packages will be posted by Pos Laju aka EMS service, whether in Malaysia or outside of Malaysia.
top^
What if you send me the wrong item?
Firstly, that won't happen since I will be posting pictures of the items to you before posting. But if I did, I will refund the actual price of that specific item. I will not refund the postage or my fee.
top^
Is what you're offering real or just pulling my legs?
It is real. I am real.
top^
How do I pay you?
For international customers, by paypal to [email protected]
For local customers, by bank transfer where the details will be emailed to you when order is confirmed.
top^
When do I pay you?
The item's actual cost plus my fee all up front before I make any purchase. Once I receive your payment, I will purchase the items.
The freight cost/postage fee is to be confirmed before postage and upon payment of that postage, the items will be sent out for posting on every Saturday (except 1st Saturday) and Sunday.
top^
Please explain what's the procedure like again...
1. you inform me the items you want.
- if there's a URL, give me the URL
- if you're not sure what it may be, then this will incur the fee for scouting as I will need to find the item for you
2. once confirmed through email, I will set up a listing specifically for you and you will purchase from that listing
3. for international buyers, please proceed then to pay by paypal. for local buyers, please wait for my confirmation email on the payment and banking details.
4. once payment confirmed, I will buy the required items
- if items need to be pre-ordered, there will be a delay. For example, books require 2 weeks. It depends on the distributor.
- if items is unavailable in the required colour, I will immediately email you to confirm if you may accept a different colour. Or better yet, during ordering process, just give me a list of colours you're ok with
5. Items purchased, I will take a picture and upload it for you to double check
6. I will email with an estimate in postage charges and you will pay the amount again with Paypal (international users) or bank in (local users)
7. Give me 3 days to package them securely and nicely
8. I will post them on Saturdays (except for 1st Saturday) and Sundays, and an email with the tracking number will be emailed to you
9. Once you received the item, do email me and let me know
END OF PROCESS
