GNAH!!

GNAH!! Stupid importing. The price of the DS lite was originally supposed to be $230. I have no problems paying that. It turns out that everyone wanted one, so the price was increased to $280. Australian customs taxes any imports worth more than $250. The tax for importing $280 worth of electronics is $95. The shipping cost is $30. I would have to pay $405 for my DS lite. I’ve seen PSPs for less. GNAH!!

    dang. that’s nearly twice the price. the hawaiian slang phrase for “bad luck” is “lose money”. this seems to be particularly apt here.

    dang indeed. That is a truck load of money for nothing. Send it to me, and I’ll draw you a DS lite on paper.

    I do want the crystal cocaine white so I should have anticipated the cost. How badly do I need my fix?

    One of these Hayko?

    Sure… but mine will only support four colors: bright red, bright yellow, bright blue and a disgusting brown.

    You should find other things you can do with your fingers.

    Disgusting brown lacks the attractiveness of the other three names. Tom and I rejected it as a new name for grapefruits. I don’t think it will sell well.

    I wasn’t hoping for it, but disgusting brown actually has a nice ring to it for a website…
