That’s because Bavaria is close to the Czech republic and the bavarian/czech border is a well known import corridor. Google further info on that, if you’re interested. Also, I invite you to compare the NRW numbers to the Berlin ones.

VoIP is my Concord moment. The telco provider forced virtually all customers to do their phone calls through VoIP, instead of the ordinary old phone network. Every other week my router sends me an E-Mail about a call that failed, service un

My experience with Hoeffner, XXXL, Moebel Kraft et al tells me that either you go for a premium price point or you will inevitably buy crap. But then, I think Ikea has more experience in producing cheap crap so that you get a better deal wi
