What could the other perspective be? I would never buy something for a price and then insist on paying something else after the fact. What would a reasonable justification be in this instance?

This fella seems to think he's some sort of "influencer", and should be compensated as such. Slightly disturbing.

Asking for a discount is not such a big deal, but throwing a temper tantrum that could hurt somebody else's business (or hobby) when you don't get it, instead of just walking away, is pretty sh*tty.

My biggest peeve on forums is anonymity when giving opinions or slamming a person or company. IF the OP outed the person ( I wish he would ) then his name would have to be made public too. I have already put several full names on the front page today, in posts, as those members apparently can't read the rule in bold at the top of every page.

That is one of the biggest problems with the PSA message boards Leon. They got some grade "A" jerks over there. And I believe they are letting these banned members back onto the board. These guys have done terrible things to fellow hobbyists. And they all hide under the guise of anonymity. I could tell you some stories to make you say "what the ****".....

Same thing happens on Blowout now. They get banned from here and go over there to hide and talk trash. There are a bunch of trolls, criminals and idiots over there, along with some good people too. But the slamming people anonymously has made me stop participating over there. Lots of criminals outing criminals anonymously. That doesn't work for me. A big pile of poop is what I think it is now. And the mods protect the anonymous criminals to get more page views, so it seems.

I joined Blowout and as soon as I started posting, 3 members accused me of being a previously banned member, who the hell needs that crap.
