Did you know that Malaysians spent a staggering RM1 billion on online shopping in 2017 alone? To put that into perspective, with the same amount of money, you can build the Bukit Jalil National Stadium and still have an extra RM200 million to spare!
Pretty crazy right?! What’s crazier though, are these 6 things we found that most of you probably didn’t know you can actually buy online in Malaysia. Check them out below and be ready to get blown away!
1. Your very own private island

Buying a private island is actually quite accessible and not as expensive as you think! Just recently, a father in China bought an island for his son for just around RM600,000. That’s pretty inexpensive considering it’s a whole island weh!
So, how do you go about casually buying an island, more so in Malaysia? By purchasing it online of course! There are a few websites that specialise in just that and here are a couple of trusted ones:
- Private Islands, Inc. Founded in 1999, this is one of the largest island-listing websites in the world.
- Vladi Private Islands. The company’s founder, Farhad Vladi, sold his first island in 1971 and has islands for sale and rent all over the globe!
We saw a few private islands on sale near Pangkor, so if you ever decide to buy one don’t forget to invite us over kay! 😛
2. Your very own private helicopter

What’s cooler than taking a ride on a helicopter? Owning one! Well, it’s actually quite easy to buy a helicopter online in Malaysia through websites such as AVBuyer.
However, there are a few caveats you need to adhere to such as:
- You must register the ownership of your helicopter with the Department of Civil Aviation. If not cannot fly bro!
- The helicopter must not be already registered in another country.
- Its design, construction, workmanship and material must be within the specs accepted by DCA. Kinda like the JPJ-approved specs for your car!
It goes without saying that you need a whole lot of cash for it too lah! A helicopter can reach up to millions of ringgits in price and the maintenance fee is quite exorbitant as well!
Well, if you can’t afford the real deal, you can always buy a toy helicopter online 😛
3. LED lights for your toilet bowl. Wait, what?

If a private island or helicopter is a little bit out of your price range but you still want something exclusive, then why not get this LED installation for your toilet bowl?
This is probably one of the most random items you can find online! I mean, just read the item’s description below:
- Motion-activated and light sensitive.
- The light activates when you enter and deactivates when you leave.
- No more stumbling around in the dark! No more messy clean-ups!
Err, don’t they know we can just turn on the lights when we use the toilet?
Well, for those of you who like your toilet to be colourful and fun, this is the item to buy then! It fits well with this Potty Putter Toilet Mini Golf Game too, don’t you think?

4. The “Dad Bag”: a ridiculous-looking hairy belly fanny pack!

This disturbing-looking item that’s aptly named the Dad Bag is a fanny pack that’s made to look like you have a dirty hairy gut sticking out of your shirt. However, worry not as in reality it’s just a handy hip purse that stores your essentials!
Really though, the funniest thing about this item listing is that it’s actually unisex!

So, if you like your partner to have a bit more of a belly, you know what to get them for Christmas this year 😉
