I am thinking of getting this as an xmas gift for myself: [link]
So, grey or black?
Also, do you have to pay the VAT if you order something from the UK but you're in the US?
Wash: Psychic, though? That sounds like something out of science fiction. Zoe: We live in a space ship, dear. Wash: So?

Natter 64: Yes, we still need you

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?
Pfft. Not my fault you live in the cold
My dad says something similar when I complain about the cold, "You moved up there voluntarily and you can always move back down here." I usually respond by smiling and thinking, "I'd rather put up with the cold than move back down there, thankyouverymuch."

I'm fairly sure that VAT only applies if you're in the EU.
And I like the grey finish better.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Given that they start off with VAT included, I'm not sure how you go about not paying it. You may need to submit for a refund.

How much is the VAT? (And is there one VAT that's EU-wide or does every country have their own?)

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Yeah, you shouldn't have to pay VAT if you're in the US, but the store may not have a mechanism for splitting it out from the total price.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Ate too fast, now have hiccups.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
lunch was completely unsatisfactory. am not full and it was not as tasty as I thought it would be. I think I need a diet coke to get rid of the taste and fill up my belly.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."
We had a new sandwich lady in the cafeteria downstairs today. I want the old sandwich lady back. My turkey and swiss on rye was not toasted and I don't know what replaced the spicy mustard I actually asked for, but it was NAS-TEE!

I'm pretty sure VAT is just UK. Other countries have different rules. VAT applies to services, for instance, so it's not just a sales tax. I couldn't say if the same applies for all of the EU.
