For the cost this is just crazy.

[KingsXJJ]

No, just about that Yuimer KPT PRO (where's the STD version?). I thought you had ordered it.

Ah, my apologies @Sascha Franck !

I didn’t order one as I have a Hotone Stage that fits sorta in this space. I got a great deal and got one for $530 or so new. But I am astounded by what similar features this unit offers for so much less. I think I saw it for $165 or something crazy like that over the weekend! Reading the feature list I posted recently it just boggles my mind. Questions about quality, IP, etc aside.

Ok, fine. I was just wondering and liked the thing for its individual buttons per block (only that strange Donner Arena thing has those as well), but then noticed that there's only one single data encoder, which usually equals an editing fiasco.
I'm not exactly in need of anything (got a big board and a small HX Stomp one), but I thought a really small footprint battery driven device could make up for a nice always-with-me emergency kit.

Well, holy crap. Just checked, and it's US$75 to Europe - with shipping included.

Your math ain't mathing.

I'm probably good on waiting out a $100 turd I would never buy, NO POLITICS or no NO POLITICS

 

[ian_dissonance]

How so? That import charge is on top of the $106 price, not the total with import charges. But it’s okay, it’ll be back to normal soon enough once it was discovered it was those dastardly previous administrations that made those crazy NO POLITICS happen.

 

[timbuck3]

Do you think some companies use the NO POLITICS excuse to raise prices when they really dont have to? Like when something is in stock even before the NO POLITICS and now they raise the price because they have an excuse to?

 

[gearJunkie]

Your math ain't mathing.

A $100 item has an additional $150 import fee. That's a 150% tax. (158% in actuality)

Where did you go to school?

Probably publicly in America.

Of course, and even if their costs go back down if people are paying the higher price, that’s the new price.

Oops. I misread it as the 158 was the total cost. Carry on.

i figured that. The NO POLITICS increase is the new regular price even if the NO POLITICS end.lol...one day some things will be priced beyond what the majority are willing to pay- i mean there will always be a % of people with too much money who will pay whatever the cost is.

 

[timbuck3]

Has anyone been affected buying gear because of I'm being a dipshit and starting a political thread?

I honestly didn’t write that… I wonder who can use my username and post in threads besides me?

It’s pretty easy to impersonate someone here if you want to Tim.

It's a filter, Tim. You can't use certain words or it will change it into something else. You can figure it out I'm sure
