Shipping/Handling of LCD Monitor

**Boy Torotot** · September 21st, 2006 11:51 AM

I have a friend who'll be coming home from the US and may be able to buy me a Dell 20.1 inches widescreen LCD monitor. Would there be any danger if the LCD in its original packaging box is checked-in at the airport? For those who have just brought in LCD/s from abroad, are you allowed to handcarry them LCD/s or were you asked to check them in?

Thanks!

we handcarried 35 LCD monitors from Australia.. we just removed the box.. put them in suitcases.. everything was ok.

dvorak nagdeclare pa ba kayo? may binayaran kayong tax?

wala.. walang declare.. walang tax..

tsaka hindi nga pala isang bultuhan yan.. siguro mga 3 or 4 na trips.. tapos 2 tao kada trip.. hinati hati lang namin..

nag sale kasi ang HP LCD sa Australia last year.. kaya bumili kami don..

yes mura na LCD dito, nakakuha ako 2 units bnew Acer 19" LCD monitor for only 12.8k each.

Actually, depends on the LCD. I'm looking at the new Dell 20.1" widescreen, so compared sa seller dito, baka at least 15K difference. A 20.1" widescreen Viewsonic LCD, since marami na nagbebenta, around 10K na lang difference.

For the Acer 19" LCD monitor at 12.8K, around 2-3K cheaper sa U.S.(shipped), which makes sense na dito na lang bumili if you'll get the Acer.

Nagpadala ako dito ng Dell 2005FPW from Japan. Door-to-door shipping ay mas recommended nila kesa sa hand-carry. Sigurado kasing check-in yan eh and medyo hindi ako tiwala sa paghahandle ng airport personnel, kahit pa tapalan mo ng sandamukal na sign saying na fragile yung item.[/SIZE]
