And you want a society filled with niggers and jeets as a result. “If you don’t make something bulletproof, it’s your fault” is the argument of a lazy stupid person. You might as well smear shit on yourself and start shitting in the streets, because that is 100% low trust society third world behavior.

I don't know the exact details here, but I'm guessing it went down something like this.

"Here's a coupon for 30% off one item"
*Adds OEM reselling of items instead of just stickers and patches*
"I would like to use my 30% coupon on this one item."
"Wait, that item only has a 2% margin. I'll loose money!"

That's not rules lawyering. That's not scamming. That's no sort of abuse at all. Business owner fucked up and is blaming the customer. It's not some obscure corner case or technicality. That someone buying from his store can read his mind and determine his intentions is not a reasonable expectation.

Now since he's gone and publicized it, he does have to worry about the people you're complaining about because he's retroactively changing the terms of the coupon he gave out, which might actually be a problem. Shit might have never occurred to them, but others will try to insist he honors it.

Then why didn’t the customer warn him instead of trying to get the discount. This isn’t Cabelas or Bass pro shops. Apparently this is a foreign concept to most people here but a high trust society goes both ways.

Why did the customer use a coupon I gave him and expect it to do exactly what I said it would do? Why didn't the customer intuit that I was bad at this and run my business for me?

Are you fucking serious? The way this played out was high trust. Seller honored his own agreements and fixed his mistake. Once buyer was aware seller was retarded, he donated to seller's fund to make it right. That's about as high-trust as you can get. No one took advantage, everyone honored their agreements. The seller playing victim on Twitter instead of just saying, "coupons aren't valid on these items," is the only part of this that wasn't ideal.

Edit: That and the cringe "bullying works" post instead of just giving thanks for the donation.

Your spiel here shows you’re incapable of existing in a high trust society. Let me help you understand what an actual high trust society looks like:

Jim owns a dollar store, his overhead is decent enough he decides to give a coupon to his regulars because he cares about his customers and appreciates their business.

Jim is now making enough at the dollar store so he decides to add radios, nothing huge price wise, but far higher than anything he sold before, he also decides to do so with a low overhead because he values his customers.

Jim starts rolling out the radios and Bob, one of his regulars still hasn’t used his coupon for the dollar store, Bob would sure love a radio and technically his coupon would work because it covers anything in the store.

Bob, not being a retarded piece of shit, also realizes that the coupon was meant for things far cheaper than the radio.

Bob warns Jim that he made a mistake and that he could lose his shirt if he doesn’t change the coupons.

The seller overreacted, sure, but the customer knew exactly what they were doing.

We already live in a society filled with niggers and jeets. This retard not knowing how coupons work doesn’t have anything to do with that.

You're twisting yourself in knots to avoid just admitting that the guy made a shit business decision and threw a tantrum over his own lack of business savvy.

If making yourself abuse proof is your definition of business savvy, then you deserve the low trust society you live in. Again, just smear shit on yourself and start pooping in the street, that’s the society you want.

This is on the level of making sure that you spend less on the lemons than you sell the lemonade for.

No, it’s on the level of don’t you dare try to do something for your customers like add expensive new stock without making sure no one can fuck you on it first. He’s trying to sell an item with low overhead to benefit his customers and got burned because he didn’t write an exclusion. Did he handle it well? No, but he’s pissed because he tried something new and the first thing that happened is someone fucked him.
