    Default Did i scam this guy?

    Well just now, this guy was sellin a mam fire pin and he was selling it for 50k and i told him it was overpriced. He said ok, how bout 1k? I thought to make a quick buck and said sure. After the trade i felt guilty, and i wanted to trade back. So ive decided to sell the pin, and give him the money. Forgot his name, but he was a unique pally. He had a flaming axe and zombies croc scale plate. He had a weird name so ill remember it when i see him. Is this the right thing to do?

    I think that would be a noble thing to do.

    Vendor: Oh, ehm...twenty shekels.
    Brian: Right.
    Vendor: What?
    Brian: There you are.
    Vendor: Wait a minute!

    Vendor: Burt!
    Burt: Yeah?
    Vendor: This bloke won't haggle!
    Burt: Won't haggle?!
    Brian: All right, do we have to?
    Vendor: Now look: I want twenty for that.
    Brian: Ehm...I just gave you twenty.
    Vendor: Now are you telling me that's not worth twenty shekels?
    Brian: No
    Vendor: Look at it! Feel the quality, that's not any of you goat!
    Brian: All right, I'll give you nineteen then.
    Vendor: No, no, no, come on, do it properly!
    Brian: What?
    Vendor: Haggle properly, this isn't worth nineteen!
    Brian: Well, you just said it was worth twenty!
    Vendor: Oh dear, oh dear. Come on: haggle!
    Brian: Uh, all right, I'll give you ten.
    Vendor: That's more like it! Ten? Are you trying to insult me? Me, with a poor dying grandmother? Ten!?
    Brian: All right, I'll give you eleven!
    Vendor: Now you're getting it. Eleven!? Did I hear you right? Eleven? This cost me twelve, you want to ruin me?
    Brian: Seventeen?
    Vendor: No, no, no, no, "seventeen"!
    Brian: Eighteen?
    Vendor: No, no, no, you've got to fourteen now.
    Brian: All right, I'll give you fourteen.
    Vendor: Fourteen!? Are you joking?
    Brian: That's what you told me to say!
    Vendor: Oh, dear... Brian: Oh, tell me what to say, please!
    Vendor: Offer fourteen.
    Brian: I'll give you fourteen.
    Vendor: He's offering me fourteen for this!
    Brian: Fifteen!
    Vendor: Seventeen.
    My last word, I won't take a penny less, or strike me dead.
    Brian: Sixteen!
    Vendor: Done! Nice to do business with you.

    Don't worry about it. That is a very nice offer and a very noble and honorable thing to do, but it's a game, plus, we have all bought cheap items. Put yourself in his position and see what you think, if he went that low that quickly then he was desperate to sell it and didn't care what he got. I have been ripped off before, and I get irritated if it was a big rip off (which that wasn't really) but most of the time, I just say whatever and move on.

    I have bought thoth leather level 45 for 5K, sold one for 70K then I also traded Osiris blade for Kopesh of Anubis, which CKWJ later sold the blade for 220K lol, that one I was anxious to trade back at first but afterwords I really didn't mind.

    It's hard to say you scammed him when he set the price.

    This is just a case of someone not being very informed, and losing out on potential profit because they didn't do their research, no biggie.

    Basically, the noob spent that much because he wanted it!
