@skylar @binkle @PeachySummer @matty @mushroom_soup @Hoss I would rather pay $10 more and wait a couple of days to not have the anxiety that the :nigga4090: won't have half the performance and burn my house down in the process.

I got new balance shoes from the official retailer. Guess what, they were just very convincing counterfeits and they fucked up my knees for a month.

I got a phone what what looked to be a reputable seller (that model was no longer sold through official channels). What arrived was a functional phone that seemed okay, but a month later AT&T starts harassing me saying that my device is from unknown origin, they have literary never seen this IMEI before and they can't offer service to it after changes on their network.
