@basedbagel Thank you for your kind words. It actually isn't deceptive; it is pricing strategy. You should be delighted the logistics have been worked out and all you have to do is present money in exchange for the goods/service! This is Capitalism!
I'm an Econ major. :)
@basedbagel it is a pricing strategy called markup for "convenience". You are picking up the product at point of sale; that is the convenience.
If you order the product on line, then there is a lag; a time delay from the the time you order to the time you receive and actually are able to use it. The value added is that the company paid for the shipping and stocking costs which are built in to the retail price.
@shortstories Well, basically it is a "beta bucks" man.
A man who naively overlooks ALL the red flags a clear thinking man will automatically be repulsed by when judging a female and thinks she can actually be a wholesome girlfriend/wife. A "blue pill" man.
@Stahesh Well, I would not go as far as to say they deserve it. If it has been explained to them and they still pursue then it is on them.
Most of us were thoroughly brainwashed and knew nothing else. This was by design.
No man is born with the red pill.
I spent all this time trying to be one of you and now I realize... I'm not.
