Grey Day for Imports – Blame Sony’s Hippocritical Retards
October 24th, 2006Sony don’t want us to buy their stuff. Unless it’s on their terms, their price and purchased in our own local region.
Sony frequently release games and consoles on different dates around the world, but still want gamers to wait patiently until the product is released in their region.
For that reason, hardcore gamers go to online importers like Lik Sang to get their fix early. When the PSP was released in Japan but wouldn’t be available in Europe for months, even Sony executives in the UK bought their consoles from Lik Sang.
“Sony Europe’s very own top directors repeatedly got their Sony PSP hard or software imports in nicely packed Lik-Sang parcels with free Lik-Sang Mugs or Lik-Sang Badge Holders”
What thanks do Lik Sang get for their stellar service, massive range of products and expert advice? Why, Sony takes them to court in every EU country, creating a stack of legal charges that no small company could withstand and puts them out of business, of course.
Carrying on from Sony’s Rootkit scandal, I’m fast losing patience with them and their products. Here’s hoping Lik Sang’s staff can resurrect their company without losing the values that made them so popular.
