"I think you know why the person refused to go through with the deal."

Of course, I understand that for the same reason I want to sell my currency contracts for more than I've paid for, but the fact is no matter how careful, sometimes I gotta take a loss.

"You are pissed because you wanted something for way less that it was worth."

My dear lady, so following your logic, you wouldn't shop at the going out of business sales?

this is exactly right- he thought he stole something, and didn't get away with it! Still ok to shop at going out of business sales, but just don't count your chickens until they hatch. That's what OP violated- he talked himself into the benefits of his "thievery" way before it was in his hand, then the degree of fury over such a meaningless event matches his sense of loss, not the actual (non)transaction. Elizabeth's upset because women usually just can't stand whiners!

  No, I thought I got a good deal.

  So following your logic, anyone shopping at going out of sales for good deal is a thief?

  I thought she was A-class in whining.
I said you wanting some permanent marker was the over-reaction. Yo have every right to be pissed - Elizabeth 06:09:25 07/27/11 (1)
Wanting to set it in stone is kind of silly IMO.

  ....about someone willing to commit a fraud?
