Force them to accept the same terms western companies must accept to "own" businesses I'm China

  • As an Austrian who started to boycott media Markt because of the Chinese take over I am surprised and delighted by the unexpected basedness of my government.

    I bought my TV there. I wanted to physically see and compare the options I'd narrowed my choice to, and I believe in rewarding the company that provides the service I need. I'm really happy, I got a great deal on a display model.

    I think you misunderstood me. I looked online and made a shortlist of TV's that I liked. Then I checked which physical stores near me had those TVs on display. I didn't limit myself to MediaMarkt's offer, they just happened to include 2 of the models I wanted to see.

    I actually had great experiences there when i need something. Customer support is also fine in my experience. A while back i bought a screen online, turned out it was curved. Took it to the store, a day after the return window had ended(!) and they took it without complaint, even as i had already opened the box. Dude even found me another one without the curve they had in stock with the same technical specs, only cost me the 10โ‚ฌ price difference. Fuck online shopping at this point lol
