My biggest ripoff was Dino Crisis at a store called "Audio Vision", but I liked to call it "Rip-off Ray's." What I'm trying to get at is he sold me Dino Crisis 1 for approximately $102.00. Yes, 102 bucks. It's base price was 92.99. Haha. Yeah I should've waited too, as it was sold at Zellers at Christmas for 19.99.

Anyone else had a big rip off?

well one time I gave one of my coworkers 1500$ to buy diamands from Sri-Lanka. it was supposed to be this fail proof plan were we would buy the diamands from there and then sell them back here in Canada at a realy good profit. well the guy turned out to be a Gamble-holic and he lost all the money at the Casino. he tried to deny it and said that the diamands were lost in the mail. but that was bullshit. long story short I never got a single penny back.

Shit man, that sucks!

I was ripped off after buying Need for Speed Carbon, that game is the worst I have ever played! AU$120 for that, and it dropped to $99 within the 2 days after release! I'm still angry!!

Very Happy

Haha, I guess waiting sometimes beats just getting something right away. That truly applies to the consoles, it's best to wait before you get one.

Tyler take note.

I'm sorry but paying $700 for $2000 worth of stuff is not a rip off. And if you want it buy it, I would rather get it now than wait 3 years.

When I was younger we used to go down "pot-fields" in Cardiff to try an score some weed and get stoned. It was real hit and miss as to weather you picked a dodgy **** to try and buy off. A few times I had people just take £20 quid off me and walk off with it. Yeah... I think most of the times I've been ripped off its been whilst trying to buy weed. Some dude even had the cheek to sell me a quater, get a gang of his mates 5 mins down the raod to mug it back off me. I bet they sold that same quater over and over and made a mint. Bastards!

Are you sort of drunk? Not being insulting, just noticed some minor typos, that's all Laughing

It is indeed irritating when you do some deals with someone and then they don't give you your end of the bargain.

I dunno. I stopped going down there a couple a years ago cos it was gettin well dodgy. It used to be a really chilled out park in cardiff where people just got stoned and there'd be people juggling and playing football and what not, but scag-heads starting coming down their, so **** that.

My spelling aint good cos i learnet to write in Welsh before English and Welsh spelling is all phonetic.

I don't really ever recall being "ripped off"

But you have ripped people off, as you said.

Well technically, it was the peoples own ignorance that ripped themselves off.
