Not necessary. I will pay for the items first and then post the total and breakdown costs when the items arrive.

I trust Singastro members... :)

[Update]: Package arrived at VPOST in USA. Shipping charges + GST (yes, we went over the $400 limit) - 10% promo discount (so basically lower GST) = $104.53.

Credit card bill = $362.20 (USD 240.60 or 8 x $29.95 + $1 Handling Fee).

Total = S$466.73 or S$58.34 per book.

Will update again when I receive the books.

Cheers!
