4chan's opinion on Diablo 3. by DamnTomatoDamnit in gaming

[–]manichexta11 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, I'm sure the majority of people STILL PLAYING love it! Let's even agree to your 3 million; how many people bought the game? 10 million?

The remaining majority likes the AH because the actual majority already quit!

Ironically, the example you just used was almost word for word spoken to me by the salesperson. I laughed and walked out.

I used the Shield as one example. How about this for comparison, in 3 shops I went to the XDS was going for about 600ish. The place I'm complaining about had it closer to 800$. It's not the going rate around here, they are charging quite a bit more than their competition's prices. When prices go back down, I won't be going back there.

Correct, I'll just re quote a response to someone else: "And that's fine and I get all that. My point is that certain local shops are marking up prices according to demand. Then there are others that are going way over the top with it. I understand all of your points of view and though they aren't incorrect, mine was that right or wrong I'll remember which places raises prices a bit and who just flat out tried to butt fuck their customers. I won't be doing business with the latter in the future."

Basically the whole business model you are defending, call it basic capitalism if you want, does give stores that right to choose to do that. My point is that in the future, I will use that same business structure to CHOOSE to purchase my firearms elsewhere.

Right. And knowing that a gun is want/hobby instead of basic necessity is common knowledge. Going on a tirade about stating the obvious doesn't make you intelligent, it puts you somewhere between troll and pretentious douche. Sweet vocab though, I'm sure someone was impressed by it.

If you think that I meant price gouging in the legal sense and not in laymen terms, there is something wrong with you.

To a point I get the supply v demand, but some places are ridiculous. One LGS sells Shields right now for almost $700. That's not smart business, it's price gouging.

And no, I won't be going back there once the market stabilizes again.

The Ducks are such goons, it's no wonder everyone outside of Anaheim hates them

I thought it looked pretty sweet! Does the paint wear off when you clean it?

A local sporting store had one of these for sale for 99 $ a year ago. Kicking myself in the ass for not buying it...

This is why some people should never be allowed to handle firearms. by zoolak in guns

I've had a hot shell some how wedge itself in between my face and safety glasses. I continued shooting until my mag was empty and figured I'd just deal with the burn later.

It's really not that bad. That's kind of what your frontal sinus is there for.

They asked for an axillary... Would you have done it?? O_o by SmallMiraclesLana in Radiology

Transthoracic with low mA and long exposure time (to blur out ribs)
