Ripped Off
A friend who worked in a second hand record shop told us about a Japanese guy who regularly bought "rare" records in their shop. One time, he was looking for a signed copy of "Never Mind the Bollocks".
They didn't have one. Four people and one magic marker later, they did. Ker-ching!
How have you been ripped off? Who did you rip off? Are you a British Gas customer?

i once brought a TV card during my first year at uni
happy i was with my purchase - until i discovered that the bloody thing didnt work. So off i go back to the shop asking for a replacement. After arguing with the owner for a good 1/2 an hour - i managed to get another card...of course it didnt work.
Back i go again - he wouldnt give me a refund - he wouldnt give me another card - i eventually got a CD Rom - worth a hell of a lot less than the card....it worked...yay...it broke within 2 days....!
I wrote to him....he wrote back saying how he did want me and my ilk in his shop...funny really as it was the student population that kept him going...
sadly - he went bust soon after! R B Computers , Albert Road, Portsmouth!! rip off - yep!!
