Question about delivery time?
« Reply #1406 on: February 26, 2009, 01:55:04 AM »
para po sa may mga experience na umorder sa US...

kano po katagal yung dating ng order if USPS yung carrier?

kasi bumili po ako online ng gitara and wala naman naging problema sa communication sakin and nung seller (ebay). binigay naman sakin ung tracking number and dispatched na yung gitara sa US nung Feb 10. eh kaso hanggang ngayon is ganun pa rin yung status nya. usually ba ano yung realistic na timeframe for delivery or before it hits Customs dito sa Pinas?

pls help!! :?

kung EMS, usually less than a month may notice ka na sa mailbox, you may have to pick it up at Pasay EMS (near domestic airport) regardless if you're from another city in Metro Manila. Dun yari ka sa customs duty, wala kang lusot.

kung normal USPS, I ordered a strat disassembled before, took almost two months before a notice arrived, and most likely you'll have to pick it up at your city's central post office, at magbabayad ka pa rin ng customs duty.

AFAIK, yung customs duty=3% total cost(declared value plus shipping cost)+12% VAT+750 yata (customs fee something).

EMS 3-7 business days. go to the main office beside the TO GO office in Pasay. Bring a print out of the email regarding the tracking number. Give it to a clerk. Haggle for a lower price. 10% if used electronics + customs duties, red tape, etc. 20% if brand new. good luck.

Haha.  The CMEC/EMS post office and BOC in Paranaque is probably the best example of red tape. :D 

Nadadaan naman sa pakiusap naman mga yan.  Yung katabi ko, nagpadala ng laptop... 7k ang quote sa kanya na babayaran.  Napababa sa 4k.

Ever wondered why such acts?  EVERY SINGLE F**CKING DAY, THEY HAVE A QUOTA OF P200,000 AT THE CUSTOMS IN CMEC, in Paranaque (near NAIA) alone.

Help on multieffects repair
« Reply #1413 on: February 28, 2009, 09:54:32 AM »
Gandang araw po sa inyo. I have here an old school DOD FX7 multieffects na sira. San po kaya pwedeng ipaayos to? Wala kasing output na lumalabas pero may power naman yung unit. I tried checking yung connections sa loob pero wala naman loose connections. Since multieffects sya, i dont have the courage to tinker it baka lalo kong masira. Also, if ever na may pyesa sanang papalitan baka pwedeng may source na rin yung mag-aayos. Maraming salamat.  :-D

Bro, maganda yan ah!
Sayang sira.
Alam ko nagrerepair sila ng sirang multi effects sa JB cubao (di ko lang sigurado, baka zoom lang nirerepair nila) and audiophile sa alimall.
Try mo rin pa check sa electrician.  :-)

dedz tayo dyan!... ano alam ng electrician sa electronics?  :-D

better reset your unit to factory preset first before bringin that to a specialist., madaming instances na nakukuha yung problem ng multi-effects sa pag reset nito., pls check your unit's User Manual on how to.

Fulltone Clyde. Incredible sweep, vintage voicing.
