woah woah there the price is only 140 euros more

Its because it just released or something, I guess?

it's a new xiaomi flagship phone

I guess this is a flagship though

yeah

Is it worth throwing extra cash at it though

considering its specs, yeah

best price/performance ratio

I also have taxes to think about

They will probably spot this and ask for it

unless there is a magic store with tax insurance

Most european countries already have it legit for sale.

Generally not worth buying from china unless it really isn't in your country.

they have it here too

for 490 dollars

its cheaper to get it from China and pay tax

Oh damn

make chinkphones great again

Well, I have to agree that premium is worth it in the long run.

but when it costs 2x I'd rather get a cheap one then switch to another cheap one, I know, Im terrible.

At least it fills your unending urge for consumerism

gotta love capitalism

my new phone should arrive next week kek

Sharpening stones arrived <:kms:327934280619655179>

😮

rip 2000

i m only surprised that most of them survived

Yeah, packaging wasn't good. Just stacked together and wrapped in a bit of bubble wrap.

Realistically, won't matter for how I'll use them.

Because I want to see how janky I can make a sharpener to fix up my chisels.

I'm glueing them to a Harbor Freight palm sander. I'll do final sharpening on a proper waterstone either way, but I want to see if it even remotely works, or if I wasted $10.

I've got a bunch of old chipped chisels that just need to be completely reground, and no grinder.

is it worth trying to do GB reviews for some discount

yes, everyone with above 90 iq knows never to trust gb reviews anyway

I am not sure how many points they will give me, if its some lousy 10 then no.

you can take a bunch of pictures, then use those pictures to make a slideshow movie, then maybe copy+paste lorium ipsum

I got some orders for knife, routers, n stuff maybe I will get the A2 lite a bit cheaper

kek

sounds like hard work

I can talk Russian if that helps

oof
