So, from what I've found, that's the official store, and they will only take Alipay balance. However, lots of other stores are offering reservations on the figures, but they don't have their setup configured as "presale" they just are asking for a small amount as deposit. I'd like to get these figures, but I really don't want to be chinked.
Dropped and nuked
Mauser Kar98K is my gunfu

gross
figures
Anyways, I'm not sure what to do in this situation. Any ideas?
have you tried using a taobao middleman
don't do this
why not just use alipay
official stores won't chink you
he has no chink credit card
@dogapult Just prepare your butthole to pay scalper prices. It'll still be cheaper than some chink pwning your CC
Normally, I just use alipay and it works fine. Taobao's own consolidation service has worked great for me in the past, except for when I erroneously tried to buy playing cards, without realizing they were "contraband"
the issue with scalpers is that there's a chance you'll get chinked for even greater prices
why the hell is a deck of cards contraband ?
use a prepaid card with limited balance
That's the thing, I'm not concerned about some chink pwning my CC, considering I'd still be buying through Taobao. And in fact, other stores offering the product seem happy to allow me to pay by credit card.
I asked apparently it's "objects of gambling"
lol
Another thing on the contraband list is "bootleg items"
but that is most of chink shit
Yup
thing is, other stores seem to be offering it
and these stores don't have any issue with me using a credit card.
I don't know how they get the final payment, but at least the deposit is listed as just a regular purchase.
Just trust them ™
I mean, worst comes to worst I lose $22USD, which isn't the end of the world. But I don't feel like trying to deal with scalpers later.
are the lenovo carbon line any good?
Expensive, but good
which gen would you go for?
i heard the battery life is so-so
Not too much into the subject, /tpg/ is probably a better place to ask.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
hmm. looks like they don't make them with docking stations anymore
There's really no sort of docks for the carbons?
