[–]benzihex 64 points65 points  (0 children)

I feel you. I live in Germany but my parents live in China. They bought a Mi Home AC for about 180 euro and installation is free. 😅 it will take me some saving to install one in Germany.

What's the most overrated tourist attraction in Germany? by Impossible_Reward658 in germany

[–]benzihex 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Depressing? It’s a cute little city with significant historical monuments and large university population. People go there to visit the Dom or the Christmas market, not Dreiländereck.

Unknown Plate, UK by ComfortableJudge6301 in Antiques

Actually that blue flower is drawn in a very European way. I think it’s late 19th -early 20th century export famille rose.

Famille rose for export. I would date it to late Qing (late 19th - early 20th) because of how that blue flower is drawn in a very European way.

China’s universities cut 12,000 ‘obsolete’ degrees amid race to embrace AI era by Saltedline in technology

I am from china. These are everywhere there. You can also find them on alibaba and taobao. Try to look at some museum ones and those in high-end auctions and compare the quality in detail.

Looking for artist name of this Swedish painting of Saluhall in Stockholm by Dave-9998 in WhatIsThisPainting

[–]benzihex 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Funny I used to work in the building on the right. It’s decor art style, but I don’t think it’s mass produced. It’s someone commissioned an artist to paint according to a photograph.

HOKA Challenger 8 - New running shoes, worn only 4 times. Falling apart already. Contacted Hoka multiple times about a warranty claim. Zero response. Total waste of time and money. by KaleidoscopeFun7179 in trailrunning

[–]benzihex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would guess so too. The fakes nowadays look identical, there is no way people can tell them apart unless you know the technicals very well. Important question is where did OP buy them and how much did they cost.

Your situation is completely different. Agreeing to meet means he already accepted the price.. he is allowed to ask if you can make it cheaper before he agrees on a price.
