From GEARBEST. It took 7 days and R500 less...

BREAKDOWN:
Gearbest price: $69.90 (R833.23)
Shipping (priority with tracking): $6.60 (R78.67)
Import Taxes: R277.84
TOTAL: 1189.74

Thus, R608.26 saving. And it takes +/- 6 days longer.

Sometimes, it can get stuck in customs. I find if you ship over the end of the month it takes longer...

Hey,

I'd like to ask, when purchasing from Gearbest, can I give an office park address or must it be a home address?

Thanks in advance

Certain products do not ship to ZA. Normally its the Nvidia Shield 500gb. The normal 16gb for $199 does ship

No Problem! I ship all my stuff to my office and it is actually better because the shipping companies like office blocks better than residential addresses...

How do you rate the Amazon Fire products for South African use ?

I have the fire stick, and I like it a lot. Have the shield also. But so far the fire stick is holding its own ( of course gaming wise it’s no match)

Except farms. I live / work 1 km off the tar road. the farm road is in a far better state than the tar road, but the couriers won't deliver off the tar. I have to go wait at the tar road for them.

Perfect, thanks. I placed my order last night for a Mi Box. How does the import tax work? Well when do I need to pay it?
 
Since I got the Mi box today, thought I'd ask the guys whom have it if there any special or recommended apps to load?

I've load Kodi and DStv already.

So my previous media player is on it's last legs and can basically just play media via Kodi. So is the Mi Box the best way to go? Does it play media from an external hard drive, work with Plex and Kodi? What are the advantages over getting the media player vs using my PS4 for my media purposes?
