It came from Cologne Kappa

Guess they did customs there

I got an invoice for 30€ in case of customs though

thats like 6 euro, dodged a bullet

6 euro would've been nothing considering I paid 160

yeah, above 150 applies extra custom tax, and god knows how much that would be

40€ iirc

+ normal taxes or included?

0 - 22 is no taxes, 22 - 150 is normal taxes apply (19%) and above 150 custom tax applies

i have never been in the last category, but i am curious how it would be calculated

22 + 34€

22 customs 34 taxes

Welcome to the /csg/ server, @bxb!

@fbn ANet A8?

If you're using slic3r remember to change the nozzle and filament settings; it's a nice kit that prints pretty well out of the box

Yes

people say the mosfet needs to be switched out for the heatbed but since PLA doesn't really absolutely need a heatbed you can get away with running it stock

I don't like how the z-axis rods kinda float though

Took me a full day to assemble and test

The m3 nuts are a real pita to position in those acrylic pieces and leaves some to be desired and would likely lose precision over time

Does a bike from bikesdirect.com count as chinkshit

I bought one of those mini velo things with 20" wheels and stem shifters

The stock pedals are dogshit http://www.bikesdirect.com/products/mercier/nano.htm I quickly swapped them out

damn need to check their city/communter out when i get time

Damn M3 nuts

If I import that Xiaomi Drone what's the likelyhood I'll have to pay taxes on it

wew

@fbn What is it?

Anet?

@JambaJam customs are a gamble no matter what

what country are you from

UK is apparently less anal but it's still a gamble

UK is only less anal because it gets so much traffic

Being part of Europe must be hell when it comes to import taxes and shit

Stupid question but there was a big red cross in marker pen over the item manifest on the customs declaration (the seller lied about what it was inside) but yet, they still delivered it no problem

does this mean they opened it

Yeah

I'm pretty sure they mark the ones that want to open

They Xray

So when it was different to what it said it waas

oh well, I don't buy illegal shit, so nothing to worry about

They probably marked it for opening hoping to find drugs or other illegal shit

it was marked as a usb cable yet the packet was like 7cm wide at most

I could see why it'd be suspicious tbh

What was it?

A dildo?

99p o rings

Because it's marked as something different I'm guessing

and like people say, they're shit

but at 99p, it wouldn't hurt too much to try

O rings aren't that expensive.

What were they for?

mech keyboard

Figured lol

Man

they genuinely make gat reds feel like rubber domes

Makes me fucking laugh when I see Mechanical Keyboard o-rings on Ebay and shit

They sell for like 20 dollars

lmao

When they're just bought in quantitiy and put in a bag.

@fbn Wish fbn would answer me

<@135743726789197824> if you scroll up, i asked first, and fbn already answered "yes", it's an anet a8

serves him right for posting a 3d printer. it's just going to invite a lot of curious questions

:3

Oh my bad

I did a quick skim

Fuark

I was so close yesterday to pulling the trigger on one

are you looking to get into the hobby for fun and profit too

it's a nice cheap beginner's kit

Yeah

my next is gonna be a corexy thing though

I've already picked out all the upgrades

Oh

a lot of the upgrades are sorta big

A reprap?

how big is the build volume on that?

the anet is a prusa-style printer, the biggest difference between the prusa and the corexy is the fact that the bed is stationary on the corexy

Yeah

Well the anet is just a carbon copy of the Prusa i3, but the frame is acrylic

I'm attracted to the Anet for a while because of how large the community is for it

yup and it may be tempting to get an aluminium frame

but i think it's better to just either leapfrog the whole community for corexy (which is growing in popularity) or learn everything you want on the anet and eventually upgrade to an original prusa i3

Yeah

Or the mk2

or mk3 or mk4 or whatever it is by then

the multi-stepper extruder head thing for quad filament is a big motivator but it does seem like an incremental step

anyway yeah anet a8 is great

you should just go for it. worth the price.

don't print ABS and you won't worry about heatbed issues

Just would cry at the thought of waiting so long for it to come and then sometihng being broken

don't be an idiot and the board won't catch on fire

Would just replace the heatbed

it only took 2 or 3 weeks and i ordered it just before christmas

the problem isn't the heatbed so much as inadequate cooling and sizing for the amount of current that runs into the heatbed** circuitry

since PLA doesn't require the heatbed to be on, that

is a nonissue

Well

I do want to print ABS at one point

I want to use it for RC parts

I've seen people just put panes of glass on it

gears?

or aesthetic components

Nah, probably quad stuff

Quality, I don't really care tht much about

ok yeah boxen are easyish- i had some bowing on some initial prints but it's a calibration thing

Yeah

i haven't had much luck with gears yet unfortunately

but such is the life of 3d printing

lol

for now

its assembled

but somethings wrong

will continue on weekend

>ok

@myuutsu what no name trash is that

is it even reviewed on Techtablets?

4gb ram and gsm for 140$ is pretty impressive

@myuutsu Built quality is merely acceptable I assume?

@Furfag yeah I had some no name as my first android phone and it was fine

my jam

Whats wrong, why is banggood censoring negative reviews? I've seen 5 stars reviews say that the product is absolutly horrible or came damaged

I don't think they are

oh

that's new

Chinese sellers hiding negative reviews isn't a new thing though

It happened on Gearbest too

and AliExpress

only place they can't do that on is eBay

is there any reason to not buy chinkshit cables

i mean

unless you need one immediately

i presume youre talking about audio cable?

Cables are pretty easy tech, hard to fuck that up

Well if you need it right away, maybe you'll just buy in a local store

But if you can wait weeks, if not over a month

That said, Ive had 3 cables go bad on me

out of the 15-20 I remember buying

nah i got an hdmi cable

I would like to buy a chink gf

Welcome to the /csg/ server, @yeltsew!

Thanks buddy

👌

this is the true story of him
he snuck into bohemian grove with a camera and saw old men listening to tapes of screaming women
then he showed all of us
then bohemian grove slowly poisoned him, and gave him permanent brain damage
he was still smart enough to realize this and now takes all sorts of crazy supplements and of course filtered water
but there is too much damage done so take him with a grain of salt and confirm everything he says yourself
and of course all that stuff he shills will do something to you, but lmao a bottle of brain xtreme is like 100 dollars wtf

Once again, they try to chink me

sent me the item in wrong colour

Zerotic has left!

try to convince me to accept a discount as compensation, which I likely will never use

what item was it

some £1 key holder thing

I've never been chinked

>redmi note 3 pro is $100 on fastcardtech

wew

how are their low prices possible

Are they real phones

Not clones or anything

dunno man

Welcome to the /csg/ server, @n0x!

Anyone speaking ?

what did he mean by this?

No, no one here knows how to type. We just all idle

I used to be a famous tv star you know

HE WILL NOT DIVIDE US

once you run out of chink shit to buy

there's nothing to talk about

you gotta ascend to alibaba

collect business cards

is anybody here in alibaba trade? i failed requesting an offer as it seems

i just wanted to ask prizes for different numbers

like 100/500 pieces

but it got "rejected"

im just waiting for the next batch of chinkphones to come out

China

Fellow Autism,
need to pick between the Zuk z2 and the Mi5.
The Zuk is like 50€ cheaper, but there's already a new phone leaked from xiaomi.

should I wait for the Mi5 and Mi5 to drop in price?

if you dont need it urgently, yes

apparently the Mi5c leaked is a budget version of the Mi5s, so maybe it won't make the price drop at all

http://i.4cdn.org/wsg/1486005974195.webm

>buying a Zuk meme Z2

so the Zuk Z2 has shit sound, shit screen, shit speakers, shit wifi, shit software, shit camera, awful build quality

but it has an impressive SoC for it's price point

Fucking satan sempai guy, I love him.

seriously

dont get a Zuk Z2

everyone I've read who's gotten one has regret it

>getting a lenovo to begin with

that should be enough to discourage you

the only reason why it's being shilled is because it has a great snapdragon processor

at the cost of everything else

zucc

and indians really love it

which is like 99% of the positive reviews for the Zuk

Indians love chink phones

seriously i need a new phone

when are the next new phones coming out

Well fuck on the general there was a guy shilling it hard

im shocked that they havent revealed a good redmi note 3 replacement yet

I have it and it's still the best bang for your buck phone

I found out provider here use a lot the lower bands wich are not commonly used on chinkphones

wich is a pain in the ass because the main task I'd need the phone for is gps

gps works fine though

it's a satellite and doesnt really need phone line bands

Yeah but I mean, as navigation device.

and most offline maps suck balls

specially osmand

fuck osmand

true

just get an iphone :^)

no :^)

buy a Xiaomi Mi Max

if you're gonna use it as a navigation device

Noice battery life

it's also 6.5 inches

it's huge

Yeah but it's more like a mini tablet

it's good for a navigation device

cause of the big screen

insane battery life

it's kinda cumbersome to carry around as a phone

i assume you're gonna use it on a car or something

Bike

oh

as in motorbike
