      this is ridiculous! ordered stuff from Japan store for around £265 and the bloody Custom Tax, Import VAT and some shit processing fee I have to pay is £105.35 which is almost half of what I paid for my 2 items!

      can anyone who have got experience with the UK customs and etc, explain to me how is this even making any sense?

      make peace, not war. <3

        sounds pretty corret, I mean universally here in EU.

        If you're hit with taxes etc. you can calculate roughly 30% extra. processing fees we can skip here, by doing this shit by yourself.

          Fucking Ticketmaster… The illegal as fuck cartel who gives their own tickets to their wholly owned scalping subsidiary to fuck their customers extra hard above and beyond their exorbitant fees... Now these fucksticks have made embedded advert videos you are forced to sit through  as CAPTCHAs, losing precious seconds as you compete with others, including scalping operations, including THEIR scalping operation.

          I don't know how this monopoly is tolerated. I don't know how they were allowed to buy LiveNation. Fuck these idiots. Where's the goddamn antitrust and racketeering suit?

          The confusion caused by this new form of torture cost me decent seats for Dave Chapelle.

          Are you not making enough fucking money Ticketmaster?

          This is why monopolies are bad. There are no consequences for these assholes abusing their customers.

          Think it, be it.

                Yeah agreed.  The seats were so poor I just said fuck it.  He loves Minneapolis, he's done a bunch of shows here all week.  He chatted up some great friends who were front and center earlier this week, even gave my buddy a dap.

                  Massachusetts laws are wack!!  😉

                  100,000 some odd dollars to the state just to open a dispensary, Then all kinds of hoops to jump through after that, what the fuck.  If you want my opinion, this whole "medical marijuana" thing is a joke!! The same states that arrested people for years and years and ruined people's lifes are broke! so now they want to collect "tax" revenue all the sudden for the same product that they spent seven decades arresting people for. Im all for taxation! as someone who worked in the equipment retail industry for years and years and then went on to ipen open his  own stores, shit needs to change fast, but in a reasonable and FAIR manner!! Feel free to move this to rant!!  😃 daddy's ready to come out of retirement and drop some more 15 ton A/C units

                        Ohio is a what we called a sleeper state… Behind Cali, Michigan and Colorado, ohio does more in equipment retail sales than any other state. Washington has probably crept up there now, but I have been out of the industry for a couple years. Surprisingly, Florida isn't far behind. Which I don't get cause the humidity is out of control down there, hah!!

                            Without me dropping names. My very, very good buddy used to sell the rapper that made that shit popular his grow equipment in LA… Actually he still does, but this was like 12 years ago. He used to roll around with him in his 7 series puffing crippy!! Now these young bucks call the shit...... OG kush....motherfuckers!!!'
