Sheesh, everyone knows that it's THREE uncommons for one rare! Just open any pack, you'll see! :laugh:
I fucking hate people who try to rip me (or others) off. Beyond just general idiocy and sociopathy, I feel like I'm being insulted: do I really look that stupid?
This kind of shit is why I always, always, always tell everyone to verify prices with the store's net connection before trading.
It's impressive the amount of effort you put into telling a story that actually makes you look much worse than the idiot.
What? I approve of calling out retards who break rules and/or rip other people off. Shady people have it coming.Quote:

majikal, on the other hand, taking his story at face value, was clearly being a douche.
Except that acting like an ass and insulting stupid people fixes nothing. Rather than explain calmly he states that he simply called the kid a fucking idiot.Quote:

while I agree that these kind of people are annoying, the OP clearly overreacted to these things. maybe he just cut some details, maybe he really is elitist or something like that.
anyway, it was still funny, specially the one about counter-top. I've had so many people say those kind of things, omg. "you know that doesn't work, right?". like stifling storm triggers, that one is a hard one for noobs. (just leaving and saying they're idiots doesn't help though. if they don't even listen to your thorough explanation and act stupid, then you've got a point)
Then I jumped him with my friends in the parking lot. You're the man.
Cool Story Bro.
We jumped him because he was actively trying to rip people off. He tells me he values my rares at two uncommons, but he values his shitty rares at $8 when a kid with less experience wants it, and then tries to keep someone from looking up the actual price. The fact that he knows nothing about the rules of magic is just gravy.
But then, I don't know why I'm answering to IBA for calling me - or anyone really - a douche. Bit of pot calling the kettle black, isn't it?

By "jumping" him, I mean we waited for him to come out of the store, pulled him off to the side, and told him never to come back. Could we have beat him up? Yes. Did we? No.Quote:

You're 24 and you and your friends wait around outside to "jump him." Grow up?
God I never want to go to Tennessee.
