Was he actually thinking that those $450 were just gifted by the exporter?

Rules:
- The mods are fallible; if you've been banned or had a post/comment removed, please appeal.
- Off-topic posts will be removed. If you don't know what "Leopards ate my Face" is, try reading this post.
- If the reason your post meets Rule 1 isn't in the source, you must add a source in the post body (not the comments) to explain this. If the reason is in the source but is tedious to find (e.g. in a lengthy video), you must add an explanation for where it is.
- Posts should use high-quality sources (for a rough idea, check out this list), and posts should retain the title (if one exists) from works like news articles, videos, etc. You may (but need not) edit your post if the source changes the title. Other types of posts should have a title which accurately, relatively neutrally describes their contents.
- For accessibility reasons, an image of text must either have alt text or a transcription in the post body.
- Reposts within 1 year or the Top 100 of all time are subject to removal. Within moderator discretion, this doesn't just include reposts of the exact same media but also includes e.g. a secondary source telling basically the exact same story as another that was already posted.

Is it at least a good sweater?
I had an imported parcel get lost last year, and the seller was kind enough to just send out another. I paid the fees for the replacement and then after six months the original parcel showed up. Funny how that happens.
My fashion sense used to have me looking like I was in a yet-unreleased Final Fantasy, but the further we go into fascism times, the more I end up drifting away from that. One of my friends recently said I look like an android refugee. I suppose she’s not wrong. Most of my wardrobe is like this now.
(Oh and yes, the outfit is fantastically warm and fits well and there’s a convenient place on the front I can just drop my phone into.)
I'm no fashion icon but I do find it annoying that most clothing I come across is symmetrical. I don't know what I like more, the asymmetry or the pocket of champions. Incredible.
If you have a link to wherever you got it I wouldn't mind having a window shop. Thanks for sharing!
Yup! For stuff that fits this vibe, I usually hit up ZOLNAR on Etsy, but their stuff often feels more like uniforms than street clothes; and Navaho Clothing there, which is where this piece came from.
I’m not much of an advertiser and I’m not really about spamming that stuff, so there’s no links. Hope that’s okay!
Android refugee isn't a bad look, it looks very cool.
Omg that is a fantastic sweater. I'm temporarily handicapped at the moment, have to use crutches or zimmer, and that there is the pocket of dreams. You look super stylish. I'm sorry to hear of your health woes - I hope some recovery is possible.
My second stroke was over two years ago. Physical therapy every day! Gotta keep at it!
I’m terrible at Megabonk though, just like everyone else. And I play a lot of solo board games to help with the motor function! Currently neck-deep in Arydia and Stars of Akarios!
