We managed to get our hands on a Samjiyon Tablet from the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK) a.k.a. North Korea. These are not sold to foreigners.
For those curious: North Korea used to sell these tablets. They stopped selling them to foreigners in approx. 2014. We were able to find a person who owned a mint-condition, never used, Samjiyon Tablet. We purchased it off of them.

We do not have much money. We have the budget of 1 slice of pizza. We also have pseudo-Twitter clout and some crappy clothes.
