Why are you ordering Sony XM4s if you’re “broke”? Sounds like you’re just a scumbag who wants to justify being a scum bag to society.
If I didn't have a laptop or the money to buy one, I'd steal one because I wouldn't be able to make money without one. Is a laptop a human right? No, not even close. Am I able to feed myself without access to a computer? Not really, no.
Lol how does that make him a scumbag to society? He’s not hurting the rest of the herd by doing this.
When you steal, somebody gets hurt. If you encourage many people to steal, employers go bankrupt or have to downsize, letting employees go. But XM4 is a human right?
For whatever it’s worth, I support your industrious approach
It's not different, both are unethical and illegal.
So if you feel you're entitled to a luxurious lifestyle without having to work for it, you can steal and rob?
So, did you sell those for bills and food or did you use them?
The folks at amazon and sony can cry their little hearts out.
Not all eshops are run by huge corporations.
I know. I've bought from those types of shops before and even China's version of ebay: TaoBao
