What I and Nils described are two totally different situations, and while what Nils did is not honest, I wouldn't say the same about what I did.

I believe that what I did is honest. If a shop has an item that I want on display at a price that I like, I hand them over my cash and buy it - it is called "trade". So, what you are saying is that if you see a product at a very low price at a store, which could be due to an error, the management going bonkers or merely a big bargain, you are going to beg them to pay more? --kkonstan To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-chat" in the body of the message
