Buying on Ali Express/Temu/Ebay
Item I want is listed for $20
Click item
It's actually a 15cm USB-C cable for $20, the actual item which is 'color B' is $75
Time to build an alternative Aliexpress client that shows all that right in the search overview.
In brazil: 400 reais item clicks it Actually 700 with taxes.
Same in Europe when buying from North America stores. Listed price is 100 USD so I assume it will be 100 EUR, by the time I received the item I have paid close to 160 EUR and often you need to spend going through filling in your information before it gives you that total price and sometimes they unfairly compete with their prices before tax with other stores with prices after tax. Which is illegal, but hey/
