at that point I'll get tech shit locally because the extra will be worth it for the warranty

at least the more expensive stuff

eu

sure it will be worth it for most stuff(still)

dunno about phones then tho

xiaomi is already in country

with local warranty and shit

ok so I paid 165 for my MiA1

originally it was 175 but I had gb points

so I avoid vat and thats the end

```Registration in the VAT One Stop Shop will be open to trustworthy sellers from outside the EU. ``` lol

with VAT it wouldve been 210 instead of 175

@bentech Where'd you read that, friend?

so imo worth it for the warranty

at least aas i understood it

i only skimmed thru it

yea sounds like therell be ways around it

>Consignments valued up to €150 will no longer be stopped at customs for VAT clearance and VAT collection for these goods will be managed separately on a self-assessment basis.

So basically, they can still put $5 value on a $500 item. 👍🏾

seems like the old way of just sending it with a delceration form si still there lol

but ye i'd imagine wish (or whatever the 2021 equiv of it) + aliexpress will prob start using it

You mean 2018 in Cuckistan. 😄

the absolute state of EU

By the time I'm able to leave here, it'll be EU wide though, so that's nice.
