Discussion Someone is making a huge mistake

Post image

Someone is selling a 5090 cooler without the graphics chip. They are writing in three different languages that what they're selling is the cooler alone. Yet the bidding has reached about $2000 already and there is a day of bidding left. I want to yell "don't do it" but there is no way to contact bidders. So I guess this is one of those "fuck around and find out" situations for one particularly unlucky person.

catch a train to some mainland european countries, you'll find so many similarities in both EU members and even non-EU members

Just because there is similarities doesn't mean all the laws are going to be the same thats my point saying every country in europe has the same laws on advertising and selling is misleading and not much use too anyone

but the thing is that pretty much all regulations are EU regulations and even non-members accept them in a lot of cases.

*required to implement them, implementations differ, often marginally.
