Nothing annoys me more than mfers who are confident yet don't know shit or bother to do the research, first of all if he had excess personal belongings they wouldn't have bothered accusing him of trying to sell his stuff and again the fact they quoted their own price without any confirmation is proof of intent to exhort

Why did you omit the most important part?

You can demonstrate the value of the merchandise that is part of the franchise with invoices or sales receipts. In case of not having these, the customs personnel will be able to determine the value of the merchandise

"And last of all who gives a fuck if someone wants to smuggle electronics, it’s a victimless crime and shouldn’t be taxed by money-grubbing states". I did not state that anywhere in my previous comments. Your attention span might have led you to think that but I commented on if this really meet the definition of a shakedown. Like I said before, the possible shakedown was on the estimated amount of the electronics. Looking at prices online it seems like a possible $300 added estimate which is $57 in additional taxes.

first of all if he had excess personal belongings they wouldn’t have bothered accusing him of trying to sell his stuff

*Ok it's clear now that you don't have theory of mind. Try putting yourself into the shoes of a customs personnel. Someone is coming with his family for a vacation but brings in a separate case full of tech equipment. Without an ATA Carnet how is this person supposed to know that it is for personal use?

**Oh wow you thought that my aliexpress story was regarding specific taxes. It was to show you that customs people in any country can and will assign any value when they catch you lying on what is being brought in.

You're using this as a substitute for saying ableist slurs and I wish you a happy fuck you and please get hit by a bus.

It is a concept that Cyborg is failing to display and at the crux of our misunderstanding. I mentioned beforehand that it is a moment, as in a lapse in the ability to see another's perspective on the situation. In addition I made an attempt for Cyborg to see the others view. Why would I do that If I thought Cyborg was unable to have that ability. Keep trying though.

It is ableism for you to disagree with someone and immediately leap to saying the equivalent of "you are mentally ill or incapable of thought".

What you are doing here is the equivalent of saying ret*rd, except you're doing it in a snooty pseudo-intellectual way that makes you feel like you're not the shitty terrible awful person that you are.

You should be stuffed into a circus cannon and launched into the sea.
