Ripped OffA 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?

SchrembotOne of the lightbulbs in the kitchen broke, so went to robert dyas to get a new one. £15 quid for one of them energy-efficient, tree-hugging friendly ones. The guy convinced me when he said:
"Oh and in daylight, it switches itself off automatically to save even more energy!"
That sold it... cos Mrs Schrembot always loves to leave the kitchen lights on. So when i got home that night, grabbed a chair, put the new bulb in, went to the switch, flicked it and behold, the kitchen was blessed in light!
For about 3 seconds.
There was "daylight" was coming from the original non-broken bulb which causes the new one to auto switch off.
