  1. Made a post about the cost of getting into the EU (Sweden) – prepare to pay about 180% of the price on store. Really good backpack though. I do not regret buying it.
  2. Placed my order on the 30th of August, shipment still says "Unfulfilled"
  3. The extra cost was unexpected, made a post about it. +83% to get to Sweden. At the time there was no notice that LTT would be sorting it out, but rather that they wouldn't do anything about it (read it on some page. memory is iffy) Really hopeful now that there seems to be some sort of acknowledgment that they will help out
  4. I might add that I don't really buy merch from other creators.
  5. Someone asked why I buy LTT merch when I could buy functionally equivalent things for cheaper (I live in Sweden; shipping + toll = expensive). I've been thinking, and too be honest I can't put it to words. The reasoning has changed over time. My first purchaces were because it was cool and promoted in videos, but nowadays it probably has to do with: Good quality (experience first hand from the products) Good factory working conditions (Linus talks on the WAN-show about their strugge to find manufacturers which meet their standards) I think, the whole idea of a channel branching out to make physical products (clothes, gear, and misc.). E.g. they put money into making a cool backpack, and I buy the backpack, so they can make more other cool stuff I think the easy answer would be "to support LTT", but you have any other reason for buying their merch?
  6. I've had two friends mention the exact thing, that the bag is too big, and that they'd consider it if it was smaller / slimmer.
  7. Do you think you'll have to pay extra fees once it enters the country? The stickers might be the culprit! I did get those. Thanks for the heads up. I'll call up PostNord and double check Agreed. AFAIK, the insane fee was put in place to country mass orders from sites like Wish.com. Because of the fee, people don't mass order from China anymore, but the fee still remains ;(
  8. My backpack arrived in here in Sweden today, and boy did the total cost turn out to be a bit more than I expected. I thought I'd compile down all the costs so other swedes can know what to expect when ordering the backpack. In total, I paid about US$457 (~4950 SEK) to have the backpack sent to Sweden (includes overseas shipping, taxes, and toll; about +83%). I put down this info in a spreadsheet. If anyone of you have bought and received the backpack, it would be cool informative to put it down in the sheet and compare costs per country. Post your costs and I'll add it to the list: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1D1826kGD-UV1H7HY32noR0c80q8_1oh8izF7TYWmGR8/edit?usp=sharing Breakdown of costs: $249.99 LTT Backpack $65.98 Shipping to Sweden $79 Tax -$20 Refund shenanigans. No idea why I got this. ~$82 Toll (PostNord, SEK 980)
  9. To state that LTT had a direct impact on this without backing it up is a bit lackluster. I have a hard time seeing a large company reacting after only 4 days one Youtube channel makes a video about this. Microsoft must have (I believe) had planned to take this down even before the video was released.
  10. What are the conditions for a video title to be changed? This went from "Intel's Last Hope" to "Can Lakefield Save Intel? - Samsung Galaxy Book S". Do the people in the forum need to yell for it to happen?
  11. I too have this problem. If someone knows how to do this, info would be very much appreciated.
