THIS INFURIATES ME MORE

[EctoBiologist]

Okay okay.

Here's the deal. some crooks entered in mom's house and... guess what? THEY STOLE MY WII GOD DAMN IT. I DIDN'T EVEN GET THE CHANCE TO FINISH METROID PRIME OR COMPLETE SUPER SMASH BROS MELEE. WHY FOR GODS SAKE WOULD YOU STEAL SOMETHING THAT CAN'T READ DISCS VERY WELL LATELY AND I USED DIGITAL BACKUPS OF THE GAMECUBE GAMES. I HATE THIS COUNTRY AND I HOPE THOSE FUCKING THIEVES ROT IN HELL FOR STEALING MY STUFF.

That's a bit strange to steal a game system and not something more...valuable?

 

[Dr. Javelin]

they probably took the tv too, unless the tv was really cheap

i'm guessing probably because imported goods, especially electronics are expensive/rare in venezuela

Legit reason to make a hole in my room in mom's house... good thing I at least have my dsi.

Oh, I know those feels all too well, sorry to hear about this.

 

[Aiko Heiwa]

lol just buy a new wii

they're like 50 bucks :lol

 

[Lee Chaolan]

Depends where you live.

They stole it because they saw Melee and went "This is much better than Brawl!"

Must be really annoying for ya.

He lives in Venezuela. Electronics are ridiculously expensive there.

 

[Lee Chaolan]

And besides, 50 bucks could be heaps depending where you live.

Possibly import a Wii or GC? I imagine that wouldn't be anywhere near as expensive but idk.

I don't think anything can be imported without a hefty price tag

In my experience postage hasn't been *that* expensive; does depend on how heavy the item is, but thankfully both GC and Wii are fairly light. The thing to watch out for is importation tax, and some places may also require additional costs because it's probably not a common area that they post to.

These are just guesses though because I don't know the local laws and such there obvs.
