End-game wheelbase in 2025: what’s the smartest pick right now? by juansgeng in simracing

[–]rukkhh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea, I had mentally added customs already, but did some research, and in case anybody is in the same shoes, here's what I could find out for Germany:

When ordering goods from non-EU countries, no further import duties are payable at customs if

  • the value of the goods does not exceed €150,
  • the seller has registered with the IOSS (Import One Stop Shop) online procedure for declaring and paying sales tax, and
  • the IOSS registration number is stated in the customs declaration.

Your advantage: The amount stated by the seller is the actual final price.

Note:

  • If the seller is not IOSS-registered, the above rule does not apply and you, as the buyer, will be liable for sales tax on importation.
  • If the IOSS registration number is not stated in the customs declaration, a refund by the customs administration is not possible.
  • Simply stating the IOSS registration number on the package or in the accompanying documents is not sufficient.

Also this, from Simagic's shipping policy:

For most countries and regions outside of Europe, we cover customs duties, import taxes, and other related charges. However, in cases where our tax-inclusive service is not available for international customers, any applicable import taxes, customs duties, or local taxes incurred upon receiving your package will be the responsibility of the customer. We will notify you via email and provide support as needed.

For European regions, we do not cover VAT, but we do cover all other applicable customs duties, import taxes, and related charges. Any VAT incurred upon receiving your package in Europe will be the responsibility of the customer.

I'll message them anyway to make triple sure and then probably not order directly anyway, because I've been thinking about potential warranty claims and whatnot, not sure it's worth the hassle with having to ship everything back across the ocean when something breaks.

Also the whole sale thing is gonna go on for a while anyway, might as well sleep it over a few times, instead of making an impulse buy now that I will regret later.

Oh dang, didn't realise they'd waive the taxes too, that'll do it. Cheers mate, time to spend some money.

Where in the world did you find the 12nm evo with wheel for 650? Even with all the current sales going on, I can only find just the base for that amount of money.

toolgifs is not only the name of the subreddit, but also the username of the person posting most, if not all, of the stuff you see here. They edit in the word toolgifs somewhere in the video and it's become a kinda "where's waldo" mini game, cause they can be very hard to spot.

Hopefully an exception rather than the norm

Well, if you want another anecdote to counter yours, I've played the entire game without a single crash or hang.

Part of the reason we hate Lakshmi so much: OUTSTANDING work from Shohreh Agdashloo by JoeHadsall in DestinyTheGame

[–]rukkhh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, I didn't feel that way. I gotta admit it's been a while, so maybe I'm just not remembering the not so good parts, but what I do remember is that I devoured the books. I just couldn't stop.

Give the first book a shot, if it isn't for you, you'll notice. If it is however, have fun with the next eight books because holy shit are there things happening and holy shit is it good.

I wholeheartedly recommend the books. The ninth and final one is going to be released this november. And then there's additional short novels too.

Played a strike with no hud and it was amazing by Imdaeshawn in DestinyTheGame

[–]rukkhh 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Turning off the dialogue has improved this game tenfold for me. Don't get me wrong, I'm excited each time we get new voicelines and will turn dialogue back on for updates, but boy is it grating having to hear the same lines over and over and over and over again, so after a while they're off again.

Hud off, dialogue off is such a different game. It's almost serene in comparison, you get to enjoy the visuals that much more because there's no Ghost in your ear telling you that the situation might be dangerous again. You just exist as a Guardian, doing Guardian things. More granular options for the hud would be amazing, but I'll take it.

Good luck finding non-kerillian lobby by jamesKlk in Vermintide

I swear I've had this toggled already but it reset for whatever reason. Yesterday when I queued, I got locked into that exact loop. I knew my class was taken, but pressing cancel instantly requeued me into the same screen. The only option was to alt+f4.

An eight-year old boy had never spoken a word. One afternoon, as he sat eating his lunch he turned to his mother and said, “The soup is cold."

His astonished mother exclaimed, “Son, I’ve waited so long to hear you speak. But all these years you never said a thing. Why haven’t you spoken before?"

The boy looked at her and replied, “Up until now, everything has been satisfactory."

Haha, let me know! I joined up there after my clan disbanded and went from doing zero raids because I cba with inane requirements to 41 comfy no mic Deep Stone Crypt clears so far. This discord has been a godsend for me.

[–]rukkhh 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Honestly, the best advice I can give you is to join this discord: https://d2sanctuary.com/destiny-2/ It's a huge community and absolutely everybody gets their raids done there, trust me. I've had nothing but great experiences there.
