sometimes i hate being in europe.. if i was a yank, i could get a 2pac for $40 (35euro)... but if i want to get one from a legit euro seller, it is 80euros. ($90).. life isnt fair Sad


I am getting sick repeating this again and again: NOBODY CAN LEGALLY SELL IT IN EU FOR 40$ if not making a HUGE LOSS. LEGALLY means fulfilling of ALL legal requirements.

Transportation, Customs, Import VAT, WEEE Registration and warranty, EMC testing and certification for CE mark, warranty for packaging regulation, ...

Of course you can import a 2Pac yourself (and declare it as chewing gum in customs). If you are lucky you get it for $40 + transportation without all this crap I mentioned before.

And they plan to add more regulations over the next years instead of less. And for what? For the sake of BIG corp. who can easily fulfill all these ridiculous regulations.
Go and say thanks to your local EU delegate.
