Customs Response Regarding Baim Wong Selling iPad for Rp1 Million: 'Many Things Need to be Rechecked'

He stated that his side needs to check this matter first, for example, the origin of the goods, whether it is imported or not."

The translation of

"If it's an imported item, then it needs to be checked whether the import documents comply with the regulations. So there are many things that need to be rechecked together,""

The translation of "lanjut Askolani." to English is "continue Askolani."

               

"Besides that, he mentioned that it is necessary to revisit the condition of the items including the specifications. "It is necessary to see how the condition of the item is, is it new or old? Are the specifications old or new? Is the sale of the unit to provide assistance or to make a profit? So it is better to ask Baim directly, to make it clear and not misjudge," he said."

"Hey iPad bro. Who said the iPad is expensive? No way. I'm offering it at a cheap price of Rp 1 million. Seriously. This is what we call welcoming 2024. I'm giving a gift. It's been a while since I've shared something great. For the mothers who have children. For the fathers watching Netflix, where? On the plane, and so on. I'm giving it. December 26, right after Christmas, buy a gift for the family," said Baim.

The upload by Baim Wong caught the attention of netizens. Netizens questioned the authenticity of the iPad. Some netizens also suspected that the iPad was a refurbished product. A refurbished product is one that has been used by consumers previously, then disassembled and modified to be sold again. "This seems like a refurbished item! Be careful for those who want to buy. Used it for a bit and it’s already broken," wrote the account owner @a_r_hxxxx.

"As netizens questioned the specifications and legality of the iPad, Baim Wong canceled the live session. He also claimed that the items offered have an invoice and are official. 'I was just about to go live, and I don't know what's going on now. I just want to say that the invoice exists, everything is official,' said Baim."

"Baim emphasized that the items he is offering are official. However, he did not provide more detailed specifications of the iPad being offered. 'Fortunately, I have the purchase invoice; we are official. If this is all detrimental to you, it’s okay if it doesn’t sell. We want to help, but it’s confusing as well. It doesn’t have to be live; I’m afraid I’ll make a mistake again. I pray that what we plan for good for people doesn’t go wrong because of negative thinking,' he said."
