I asked them the same and yes it was an account people pass around on illegal trading groups. Thankyou, such input was what I was looking for. In general, it's hard to tell how well random sellers have taken care of these systems. Ideally buy from someone you know, or a place with a seller rating system in place (like IVG). You may also want to look at CeX or GameLoot depending on your location. With PSN sales being as regular as they are, don't let bundled games sway your decision (especially if they're digital. Never ever buy or use someone else's account, on PSN or any other service). Those games can be had fairly cheap if you wait a bit. You may actually be able to get a PS4 Pro at that budget if you shop around! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DamnWhatAreYouDoingWithAll Posted April 6, 2021 Report Share Posted April 6, 2021 What do people want to infer from a CUH model number(PS4), when they ask for one ? For instance, take CUH-2216A, what can one infer from it 'besides' Country of Origin, Size and Base firmware ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some models were infamous for jet noise, so most likely they don't want to buy those. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a friend who shifted there, for work. Let me know where your office is and I'll ask him for a suggestion. He moved there almost 4 months ago.

Unfortunately no, my office IT team goes bonkers seeing Apple, a colleague had just joined and had a macbook which he wanted to use temporarily they couldn't even figure out how to load basic MS Office and Outlook for him Also, he faced a lot of format issues when sharing files with us, the format would change completely of excel, ppts etc. So it has to be a windows laptop, my personal one at home is a Macbook Air which I love. Also, get well soon buddy read about it in the other thread. Wishing you a speedy recovery. Anyone with any suggestions ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mysteryman Posted May 1, 2021 Report Share Posted May 1, 2021 I have a question about taxes. Is there a law in India to include taxes in the price tag of consumables? In my experience almost all stuff in India include the taxes with some exceptions like for example restaurants. Some restaurants excludes taxes and service charges. Are they illegal? BTW excluding taxes are illegal in the EU. US prices does not include taxes. We used to compare their console and game prices at $499 and $70 respectively which is wrong as their actual cost is higher. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mysteryman Posted May 1, 2021 Report Share Posted May 1, 2021 3 minutes ago, Mr. Comingle said: MRP is supposed to include taxes, yeah. Restaurants and all fall into service category which is not required to include taxes in prices, I guess. Service charges are supposed to be voluntary and you can refuse it but obviously no one does that because you look like an a**hole. Yeah. Actually I have a dilemma about delivery tips. For deliveries from e-commerce sites and shops we don’t give tips but for deliveries via food apps like Swiggy, are tips encouraged? Swiggy get huge commissions from restaurants in addition to delivery charges but pushes consumers to pay tips even if they are voluntary.

Also, if I'm getting my meals reimbursed, I add tips because why not. Small scale Robin Hood sh*t. Also, these days are difficult times, so I try to add tips. But generally, I avoid it. Swiggy, Zomato instead of trying to guilt us into giving tips should pay their drivers better wages. True, it's exactly like US culture where every worker looks for a tip and you come off as an a**hole if you don't tip because tips are considered a part of their pay while everywhere else the pay comes directly off the profits of the restaurants. Stupid, greedy Americans. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stupid, greedy Americans. In US, I would use that word “greedy” only to corporate overlords as the gap has risen multifold over the years. The US middle class is disappearing. Blue collar jobs like waiters are barely meeting ends meet with minimum wage and there are lots of stories about double/triple shifts and old people working to survive. This is the true USA. Unfortunately many Indians see USA from the Wallstreet or East Hampton point of view. So Tipping is generous there as the cost of living is higher there.
