Good Lord! Why a CD-Recordable costs 1 ? in Europe?! All becouse of the EU (UE in polish, EU in english, right?)! Want to know how many it costs in Poland? Huh? An ESPERANZA CD-R (700 MB, 80 min) costs 1 zl (1 euro costs about 5 zl) and that is... 0,20 ?!!! Why the west side of Europe isn't buying in the east?! Everything is cheaper in our country, food isn't so bad and it's fresh, natural etc. What are you afraid of? Not all Polish are thiefs as many say. And now becouse of joining the EU the sugar costs 3-4 zl, but before it was 1,5-2 zl!

Any comments?

Sucks. Same happened to finland. First it didn't show that much but the prices are going up about 0,20? a year. And it shows.

y0da, is there only one shop in europe? which country do you mean?

the classic maxi jewel case recordables (10 pieces) cost about 5? over here and a "spindle" with 100 pieces costs 22,99? at amazon.de

Edit: btw, in germany there's a tax on CD-burners and all sorts of blank CDs. They even wanted to (or did they?) put taxes on multi-function things like scanner/printer in one because this allowed you to COPY BOOKS!
blah. Now we're not allowed to make private copies or rip certain CDs, but the recordables still have the taxes.
(someone correct me if I didn't use the right words..)

i remember when i was in poland last spring, 2,5 litres coca cola cost like 2 or 3 zlotys.
oh, and when we went to macDonalds, a large BigMac menu cost 6 zlotys!!!!111one that's like 1\6 of what it costs in Norway!

Well yeah. UE sucks. Banks gain money from it due to the ease of international tranasctions ( between ue countries ), and they were infact the true reason behind it ( banks fund governments, governments do stuff banks ask ), while the rest gets nothing, with the excuse of a united government that actually doesn't do anything - what actually changes for us is the chain reaction price increase that affects especially alimentar sector ( depending on the elaboration, today's food goes trough many passages, and each, the 'link' before being not so cheap as it used to, increases accordingly, until it is actually sold to the customer with a not indifferent price increase ) while salaries are obviously the same.
The tendence of abusing of this because people don't realize what they're really spending is strong here ( we had the lira, but we used it in thousands (1000,2000 etc) while hundreds were just in change, and no less than 100, which was already in disuse, so mostly 500/1000. 1000 lire = 0,5? ) to the point that in most premises soft drinks are sold at 2? (can 33cl) and beers + other soft alcholics at 3.50? (bottle 33cl), if not more ( in more elegant ( or just more expensive ) places )

But the prices raised in german after getting the ? too :(

In here i can buy a game like Soldner, True Crime Streets of LA, Singles and all games like that for only 2$.

But not originals...

and not PAL [:-weepn]
(my brother's in macedonia)

Here in Germany I get my CD-Rs for 0.40?

yea it sucks.. you can really see the difference especially the ones which were raised a lot

by that im talking about cigaretes, gas, etc etc... cigaretes cost me like 4? for a lil box.. if i buy them from someone who imported them from the USA (undercover import..:P) i only pay like 2.50

when i get them from poland.. i only pay like 2 euros or sumthin..


really man.. there rippin us of and theres nothin you can do bout it..[xx(] (legaly..=P)

so.. if ya wanna be on holiday in holland.. bring alot of cash here if ya wanna survive..:P


BTW: i pay 5? for a 10 cd box.. imported from germany..:P (legaly..=P)

lets all travel to poland to buy a CD for half the prize... Woopeedoo
didnt you think that the prizes are parallel to the wages you earn?
a guy in france or england earns more money per month. a guy in poland couldnt live 3 days in england with his polish wage, yet a french guy could leave 3 months in poland with his french wage.

Except in Spain. We earn half Britsh or german do and we pay more less the same for the products

thats coz of all the illegal workers from marroco...
hehihihi

Melba: You have borthers in Macedonia?

Yep they are not original. In here you can rarely find a shop with originals becuase lots of peoples just open stores where they sell not original CD's. So if you take originals you will have a bad bussines becuase everyone buys not original.

i was talking about France.

M: well, he's in KFOR. he is originally in Kosovo, but there's nothing to do there for him, so from time to time he gets transfered to Albania, Macedonia.

America gets quite a deal, I spend 10 dollars for 100 CD-R's, so, 10¢ a CD, so, we have a good deal here...

Oh.

MAN WTF 10 BUX FOR A DILDO! THAT SUX KILL ME FFS! OMFOGMFOMGOMFOGMFOMG IT AINT EAVEN ELECTRICAL WHAT IS CC GOIN TO SAY NOW!
