Princess Kyky Caldari Orbit Labs	Posted - 2007.11.16 05:33:00 - [1] Does anyone know any websites that sell PC's/Laptops and ship to the UK? Thanks in advanced
lofty29 Reikoku Band of Brothers	Posted - 2007.11.16 07:41:00 - [2] That's called Tax Evasion. --- Latest Video : FAT- Camp
Dark Shikari Caldari Imperium Technologies Firmus Ixion	Posted - 2007.11.16 07:53:00 - [3] Originally by: lofty29 That's called Tax Evasion. And its a great thing. 23 Member EVE Video makers: save bandwidth! Use the H.264 AutoEncoder! (updated)
Brutus Proqqus	Posted - 2007.11.16 08:48:00 - [4] were only boosting the american exports here. Give us a hand. I would like to import a '68 stang to Holland. Any1 know of any companies that do it? BTW lol at US prices atm. I saw a '06 Subaru Impreza on ebay with like 40k on the counter for 25k US $. That's 17700 euro's. If you wanna buy the same car here you gotta pay at least 50k euro's

Sure looks nice tho, but inform yourself before buying it:D Praesidium Libertatis - We aint dead yet motherfrackers
Brutus Proqqus	Posted - 2007.11.16 10:13:00 - [6] Edited by: Brutus Proqqus on 16/11/2007 10:14:29 true but even then i think its still hella cheap. Sux that you have to do a sort of "APK" thats twice as hard as normal and costs 1000 euro's to make it roadlegal in holland tho :( or maybe if you ship the engine seperatly the "invoerbelastign" is lower then with the engine included :p Since they base it on the amount of horsepower and engine size etc....
Gralg Merglen Minmatar Fusion Enterprises Ltd Mostly Harmless	Posted - 2007.11.16 10:17:00 - [7] Don't know too many places to buy from the US, try Ebay? also, good luck with blowing up your new PC due to voltage differences/buying a brand new PSU on top of the new PC Originally by: Graalum I can also confirm that the guristas pirates have a titan. We tried to kill it but unfortunately it mwded away at 5k/second and smacked us in local.
Imperator Jora'h	Posted - 2007.11.16 10:18:00 - [8] If you want to dodge taxes I doubt you will get a US company to do it. IF they will ship to the UK doubtless they will be scrupulous about paperwork and you'll get hit. What you need is a friend/family member in the US to buy it for you then ship it. People do this all the time in the US to avoid some state taxes. Works pretty well. Just have to trust the people doing this for you.
ry ry StateCorp The State	Posted - 2007.11.16 10:40:00 - [9] Edited by: ry ry on 16/11/2007 10:41:24 i always sign upto us based sites as firstname "gift for" lastname "my name". parcels arriving in the UK labled as a gift tend to avoid UK customs' beady eye. edit. although surely the postage on a PC would negate any saving?
MrTriggerHappy Caldari Interstellar eXodus R0ADKILL	Posted - 2007.11.16 12:56:00 - [10] Actually it's not tax evasion. If your ordering something from the UK and it's stopped at customs, they can send a lil note to your house asking you to pay the tax. Guys at my work order cigarettes from Czech republic and have had that a few times. Usually the gift trick works though -------------------------------- My Comments in no way reflect my corp or alliance

Banana Torres The Green Banana Corporation	Posted - 2007.11.16 15:20:00 - [11] The chances of getting a computer past customs without them slapping on duty and VAT is almost nill. Customs won't release your machine till they have been paid. What usually happens is that you will be contacted by the courier that you have a package in customs and they need úX to get it out. And it doesn't matter if it is a gift, duty and VAT are still payable. You are better contacting HM Customs and Revenue before hand, that way you will know exactly how much it will cost to import the machine.

Find someone that has an U.S. Army Post Office Box, lots of yanks around, just have to trust them to receive the computer and give it to you. No customs involved. Sigs are for losers. Yes this is a sig.

Hot damn, is that the allure of a weak dollar? So even though my house is currently worth three times what I would have passed it over for five years ago, I can sell my junk stuff to Euros and still get the cost of gas back? Weak economies FTW! ----- TANSTAAFL Originally by: Hostess Deconstructing the Twinkie is like trying to deconstruct the universe.
pwnedgato Ore Mongers R0ADKILL	Posted - 2007.11.17 01:51:00 - [16] And thus see how eventually a recessed economy can quickly get back into shape in the new globalized economy. OFC tariffs act as a depressant preventing this but.../ ----- signature
Chainsaw Plankton IDLE GUNS	Posted - 2007.11.17 01:53:00 - [17] with the us dollar at what it is, even with the duty/taxes would it be cheaper to buy stuff from the us
pwnedgato Ore Mongers R0ADKILL	Posted - 2007.11.17 01:58:00 - [18] Yep even during the Great Depression people still managed to take advantage of it and get rich. I look to events like our recent sub-prime loan collapse as opportunity. ----- signature
Shalia Ripper Caldari Caldari Provisions	Posted - 2007.11.17 02:13:00 - [19] You don't want a computer from America, all it will do it sit around eating fast food and drink cheap, tasteless beer while it is rude to your friends and family and slaps your GF around. We won't even mention it's annoying attempts to make you understand it's horrid English by just yelling slowly at you. PS - I am making fun of my own country and the American stereotype.
Chainsaw Plankton IDLE GUNS	Posted - 2007.11.17 02:16:00 - [20] Originally by: Shalia Ripper PS - I am making fun of my own country and the American stereotype. i enjoyed it.

pwnedgato Ore Mongers R0ADKILL	Posted - 2007.11.17 02:18:00 - [21] I take offense to calling our beer bad! it is still beer as in it has alcohol and as long as it doesn't kill you (before you get drunk) any alcohol is good alcohol. ----- signature

We have tons (maybe I should say "many gallons" or "lots of liters" for our non-American friends) of excellent beer available here in the Pacific Northwest. Local brewers that are neck and neck with the finest Euro brews...and better than the average "import" beer. However, the state of macro brews in the US, Bud, Miller and so on, is pathetic. They are weak flavorless things that insult the alcohol they convey.

Sister Impotentata Caldari State War Academy	Posted - 2007.11.17 03:45:00 - [24] Originally by: pwnedgato I'm a Samuel Adams man myself (though I admit to enjoying a Dos Equis now and then) Is the two X's back in vogue? Back in the '90s, when I was learning to drink, Corona was the hot stuff. My father used to tease me: "Boy, in the Navy I wouldn't even buy a Corona for an Ensign. I had better respect for my men." More recently, any reference to the two occurs when my boss belches unsurreptitiously in the middle of a sentence. "Two Dos Equis Por Favor!" And then he completes his locution. If it was a short soliloquy, he'll close with "And hurry garcon! The boss is coming!" In keeping with our attempts at creative and literate oneupmanship, when I hiccough in-sentencia I throw in a stereotypical American mistranslation: "Gimme Two of Those Horses! Quick!" ----- TANSTAAFL Originally by: Hostess Deconstructing the Twinkie is like trying to deconstruct the universe.
pwnedgato Ore Mongers R0ADKILL	Posted - 2007.11.17 03:48:00 - [25] I wouldn't know about it being in vogue but most mexican beers just do a better job of thirst quenching on a hot day. ----- signature
Sister Impotentata Caldari State War Academy	Posted - 2007.11.17 04:15:00 - [26] The two beers that I could honestly describe as thirst quenching, meaning that after I quaff the first draught I continue to quaff without regard for being able to breathe or other sundry mitigants, are Hennepin and Burgerbrau. And I'm a Porter man myself. ----- TANSTAAFL Originally by: Hostess Deconstructing the Twinkie is like trying to deconstruct the universe.
pwnedgato Ore Mongers R0ADKILL	Posted - 2007.11.17 04:21:00 - [27] Edited by: pwnedgato on 17/11/2007 04:22:18 Hmm burgerbrau is a tad too much on the "liquid bread" side of things to be thirst quenchy when it's 98 F (36-37 C) out and I'm not a fan of Hennepin really. ----- signature
Sister Impotentata Caldari State War Academy	Posted - 2007.11.17 04:34:00 - [28] Hennepin is bready, yes. Actually you'll be hallootininatin smells for the next three days after a Hennepin. But BB? Sammy is breadier than BB. Burgerbrau is in my experience the closest the Euros get to canoe beer. But it's still good. Hold up. What's that nasty brit "cream" beer what comes in the yellow can? Manchester summat? That crap's worse than any American brew. "Allow! E're's a treat! Le's skunk oop the beer, an' aalso taik oola fuss ou'a'vit, li' it was yes'a'days leffovers. **in Dancer!" ----- TANSTAAFL Originally by:** Hostess Deconstructing the Twinkie is like trying to deconstruct the universe.
pwnedgato Ore Mongers R0ADKILL	Posted - 2007.11.17 04:42:00 - [29] Edited by: pwnedgato on 17/11/2007 04:44:05 Edited by: pwnedgato on 17/11/2007 04:43:46 Hennepin has a nice spice to it that masks the bready-ness of it burgerbrau doesn't/ I wish I could find a beer that at least tastes similar to John Courage or at least get some imported know of anything? As for that cream beer I dunno, but I've seen some. I thought it was a pint of yogurt at first... ----- signature
Sister Impotentata Caldari State War Academy	Posted - 2007.11.17 05:03:00 - [30] I'll admit, I don't like either BB or Hennepin as much as I did the beginning of this year. I spent a good part of the summer chasing bourbon with Red Bull. I've lost my taste for hops. My favorite beer lately? St Peter's Cream Stout. I'll offer this to any snob who wants a red with his beef. Truly capital. ----- TANSTAAFL Originally by: Psycho John Petrucci If there's any point where you feel it's too difficult, then just stop. Because you just, you don't have it, you're just not good.
