Wrong calculation by Anycubic Slicer Next?

I was looking for ways to optimize multiprinting, and I noticed a very weird multiprint calculation in the slicer. The one single thing I changed is that I removed the multiprint tower. HOW ON EARTH are the flush volumes near non-existent? 65g of flush vs 4g? It still needs to clean the full nozzle, and the print is very small and thin ( almost no flushed infill or supports); nothing should change in terms of flush volumes. This can't be correct, right?

The flushing time is nearly the same, and the tower itself only uses 11g of filament, so I can't fathom how it would only flush this little filament? YES I KNOW It's a small and tall print with nearly all layers in 2 colors, so it's a bad candidate for multicolor unless I wanna copy it all over the PEI.

Overpaying for duties???

  1. The new 3EUR duties for items from the same category are due ONCE.
  2. Both prices say they include the duties and VAT.
  3. WHY do I still get the same price for both items if both prices "included duties"? The 3 EUR charge should only be paid once!
  4. Weirdly enough, for 2 instances of the same item, I get the 2nd one roughly 3 euros cheaper, but the 3rd one onwards is priced as the average of the first and second one - as if I should pay half the duty for each next one!

WTF??? I ain't buying nothing until this gets sorted out. Also, I feel like those 3eur duties are MORE SEVERE than normal duties for cheap items. Like normally duties are like 10%, but here they sometimes exceed the value of the product. (but that's a complaint to the EU regulators) STILL Aliexpress should CORRECTLY count the duties and not make us OVERPAY for it and pocket the rest!!!
