That’s unfair for Europeans. At least they should allow us to buy one here.
@gergely EU swag budget was probably used for compliance with GDPR 😉
@downey Why US only? VAT fees? I didn't pay any when I received my shirt from Stack Exchange. Strange.
@IzzyOnDroid Half the article is an explanation.
@downey Yes, guess where I've got the VAT idea from. Maybe we should point them to SE, they often send "welcome packages" with T-Shirts, caps and more (e.g. for new mods). But yeah, that's probably far below the amount GitLab would have to ship :wink:
So: Nice gesture, and though I won't get one here in the EU, I'm happy for those who will in the US. Not complaining.
@IzzyOnDroid @downey Have they not heard of proxys? Or how about just paying someone in the EU to make a few for us? It's a fun t-shirt and I'm sure that I'm not the only one who's willing to pay for it.
@downey just registered. Thanks for the post.
