Since they introduced ? as a global coin for most european countries such as Italy, prices are becoming untouchable...while salaries/incomings still remain unchanged.
They said Euro would have had to be an unfailing way to align prices in the countries involved and lead our economy to be stronger....
But the only thing I am able to perceive since the new coin has been introduced here in Italy, is a dizzy increase of the prices for the majority of the products of any type, hardware included.
It is often more convenient for us to purchase these types of products from the foreign countries, rather than from here.
There's another important matter, because of which we "morally" feel forced to purchase some types of products from foreign countries: Italy, at least in Europe, is the most taxed country.
For example, we have to pay a no-sense tax, called SIAE (I think it exists only in Italy, but I could be wrong), that makes our prices, for storage devices of any type, absolutely the highest! The meaning of this tax is absurd..... the reason because of which it exists, is that the buyer could "potentially" use these storage devices to store illegally copied movies, softwares, music....
So, even if I use my hard disk - for example - to store my software, regularly purchased, I have to pay this tax (included in the prices) the same.
I cannot do anything else other than to purchase, when it is possible, from the foreign countries, even if so doing I have to wait a lot for my merchandise.
Excuse me for my prolixity, consider it as a vent
So, has anyone any website of resellers for my purchases?
Thanks in advance...
