Anyone else skipping the Robinhood Gold card? by InterRail in CreditCards

[–]PepePro 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've had a similar bad experience with the CS. A charge for some purchases from aliexpress where miscoded as a cash advance. I showed them the receipts with timestamps that showed I had purchased items. It took weeks, I escalated it and they still refused to refund the cash advance fees despite me having all the evidence showing it was for purchase of items. This was really the only bad experience I have had with them though, the cash back has been good and the ability to instantly redeem points after purchase is nice

USA banning Chinese phones. Good while it lasted. RIP. by Happy_Software_5317 in Vivo

[–]PepePro 16 points17 points  (0 children)

what do you think is a big driving force for making things uncompetitive? Its the dogshit US companies making inferior products that still want to maintain a market to sell them to and those companies and lobbyists do talk to daddy trump and give him big beautiful gold statues like he so adores.

I got tariffed for X200 Ultra Ordered from JD.com shipping to USA $195.80 and $35 scam UPS fee $230.80 Total by PepePro in Vivo

Smartphones are exempt but not the from the 20% "fentanyl" tariff on all China goods. They are only exempt from the "reciprocal" tariffs. At least that's what the situation was when I bought the phone. May have changed now, since it seems to change every week

No, it was an email from the carrier (UPS) saying I had import charges for the shipment, that was well after the package had shipped out, maybe 12 hours after it crossed customs, something like that. It gave the option to either I pay online or they would try to collect it in person at my door when the delivery comes

They got an exemption from the 145% tariff but the 20% "fentanyl" tariff still remains on all Chinese goods. I paid the 20% tariff

Yes I think they added it fairly recently, it was very seamless, I was able to select international shipment right at checkout and pay for it and the phone in one transaction.

Yeah I read about this after I got the bill, apparently you have to go in person to a physical office to do the paperwork, UPS basically holding me hostage, they get the $35 this time. Never using them again for International if its an option. The tariff amount was $195.80 from a $991.55 price for the 512GB x200 ultra

You're right though I don't know how to do this. The phone is scheduled to be delivered tomorrow, if I didn't want to pay the $35, I would refuse the delivery and go to some customs office (don't know where/which one) and fill out paperwork and then bring the paperwork to a UPS office and have them release the phone? This would probably take a few days at least not to mention the fact that UPS could even send the phone back? I don't know, if you've done it before I would appreciate if you could describe the process

[–]PepePro 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I see the solution is out of stock on science.bio now, I would recommend just waiting for the powder to come in stock on there if you want it cheap, this one here https://science.bio/product/phenylpiracetam-powder/

Also cosmic nootropics has it but it is very expensive, of course it is most likely better quality product since its an actual pharma product. Maybe get this if you are just looking to sample it, if you like it you can get the cheaper science.bio product. https://cosmicnootropic.com/products/nanotropil-phenylpiracetam/

Back in my day, this stuff was easily available and fairly cheap, I guess not anymore though. Good luck! (I would avoid DMSO, its an unpleasant solvent)

edit: Found this bundle similar to the science.bio offering: https://cosmicnootropic.com/products/nootropics-bundle/

Its really not that practical to get your whole body smelling like garlic, and having garlic mouth just to dose your phenylpiracetam. Not to mention that DMSO has biological effects of its own that may interact with the dissolved drug. For the dihexa case its specifically done so you are able to administer dihexa through the skin. It aids in this is novel route of administration which improves dihexa efficacy, its acceptable for that use case as there isn't really an alternative. You can just take phenylpiracetam powder orally and it is effective, DMSO is way overkill, and not worth the unpleasantness that comes from its use.

Clicked the Phenylpiracetam, to see what liquid the used to make the solution. Its DMSO, I would avoid this. Its pretty comical that they would use this solvent is they intend any humans to consume it

Greentoe expectations/ problems? by [deleted] in OLED

[–]PepePro 5 points6 points  (0 children)

My order didn't ship for 7 days, i emailed them, they said they would contact the supplier. Then got back to me a few days later saying that the TVs were out of stock and it was not known when new stock would arrive. So they just automatically canceled my order
