minus-squareJimmycakes@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up5arrow-down1·4 months agoYou know regular wheelchairs cost like $20k right?
minus-squarehelenslunch@feddit.nllinkfedilinkarrow-up1arrow-down3·edit-24 months agoYou realize this is Not a Wheelchair, right? Wheelchairs are medical devices and sell with the appropriate taxes applied. Hence why it’s called Not a Wheelchair.
