Are you up for being friends?

@spruce_m00se Feel free to email me. I did this for a forum fellow from England.

@meleu Is it still massively expensive to import foreign electronics to Brasil? I have read and watched documentaries about the taxes that were placed on foreign imports. I'm sure that has opened up but there will always be a legacy of that policy.

I always liked that Brasil and Europe were the ones who truly appreciated the Sega Master System. North Americans were just blinded by Nintendo (in my 11year old eyes...)

On my forum profile page there's a link to Donate via paypal. I think you can see the address in the donation page.

I think it's not as much as it was in the 80s-90s. But it still has some taxes. Not sure how it worked before but now the taxes are applied by sampling. Then it can be a matter of luck. :-)

I bought some gadgets from other countries and it wasn't that expensive (some of them weren't taxed), such as: 8bitdo NES30, SNES30, Zero, GPD XD...
