It doesn't pay much, but the benefits package is simply to die for.

I wasn't the first one to call you dishonest in this thread. Lapse of Reason did before me, and so did another board member. Btw, I never called you crook. You're making that up. And as far as I know, you're the one claiming not knowing the price. So I guess that makes you the ignorant/uninformed one here.

Agreed.
But dude, do you notice that you don't ever just have differences of opinion? You have conflicts of opinion. Somehow it always ends up getting personal too.
Keeping the discussion civil while still productive is an artform in of itself, but simple politeness is the first step. When you first came on here, I didn't think you really wanted to stick around by the way you were posting and insulting things on the site.
But, you're still here, so you obviously find some value in putting time in here.
Why not just try to be cool with people before taking a fight to them? I'm all for discussion, hell, I argue constantly, but without civility, no one listens.Bill & Ted wrote:Be Excellent to each other.

Good advice.

Even if he'd pulled out a 'net-enabled PDA and looked it up on Hasbro's website to show them, THE PRICE AT THAT STORE WAS $20. That may have been a clerical error in entering it into the system, but that isn't Sto's problem. I fail to see how there is any loss of "integrity" in paying the price a store asks.

He took advantage because he knows it was a price error. I feel my situation helps illustrate my point, but puts it in terms of cash instead of product. He should have paid $90 (without the error) but paid $20. The store would have received $90 (without the error) but took in $20. $70 is $70, whether it is incorrect change or an incorrect price.
Bottom line - what he did was not morally right to me. Not to say I would not have done the same thing, I just do not hold the action in a positive light. If it were me walking out, I'd be excited about it too as I relished in a selfish form of delight. I can live with the guilt. It's like getting away with something for nothing.
I'm only expressing my views to add to the debate / discussion. I'm reading some posts with the attitude that what he did was right and good. I'm no better than Sto, I'm just calling out the action for what it truly is, and it is not right and good.

I just bought a 20th anniversary Prime for $19.96 at Wal-Mart. Another Wal-Mart 10 miles away has the thing for $69!! Several WM's have them at $50. It just depends on the store.
If he asked someone, and they told him $20, it's not a mistake. How do you know they weren't on clearance right at that moment?
Damn thing should be on clearance anyway. I got one for retail, and it's not worth it. $20 seems a fair price to me.
