I remember when I went to Japan there were these two people who offered to take peoples bags for them and they would just run off with them, im not a very imposing person I just have a really scary face so when the guy walked up to me and asked to take my bag I gave him an angry look and he ran away like I slapped him with one huge meat hand
I remember one time when my family and I went to Italy, we stopped to get some gelato and we just wanted a couple of small cones, but the dude who was getting our gelato kept saying they only had large cones which were way more expensive. We ended up getting and sharing just 1 large cone because of the cost. As we were leaving two I guess non tourists were next in line and the dude dead ass gave them two small cones.
One time I went to Peru with my mother for a rare vacation. We had been walking in the streets and from within the crowd a woman with an actual llama and a child holding a baby llama just appeared. They asked me if I wanted to hold it and, of course, I said yes. Like clockwork they shove the llama in my hands and we take a picture. It was an immediate interaction. Then they asked us for pesos. Dont look like a tourist, folks, where you can
Cory should have clarified where is this tour at to give more validation to his explanation. Might have been some tour that got the idea of Shanghai someone all wrong, but would still have been a thing that actually existed.
My mom had a business out of the house and people would come by and buy something small like a pot for plants that's worth 1.50 and give 50$ the first time my mom fell for it but after (because I was working as a cashier at the local supermarket) I showed her how to check bills if they aren't good or not. (scratch the collars, flip the green if it flashes and in the end I'd gotten her a counterfeit pen) the last day of work for me at the supermarket was when I was in the express lane and a person payed me a fifty for a soda. I should've known something was up but it was a busy day so I just marked it with my pen. Turns out the 50 was actually a 5. So my till was under 45$ and the limit is only 5$. They seen I marked it but still held it against me so I got fired.

He said "stuff happened". Implying rape, robbery, murder. Most likely an urban legend, but could be true, there are lots of cases of home invasions because people are gullible.
I was selling some car items for my dad for 800, knowing that customers will try to lower the price. Some mexican dude asked to negotiate the price and I was alright I can haggle it down to 750- 600! Um okay I can meet you at 700- 600! This isn't negotiating, you're just demanding... but then my dad was pretty much okay with it so the guy comes to check the items out. All brand new and unused, literally worth 1200, the dude is getting a 50% discount. Idiot wastes our time, tells us he can come back tomorrow to pick em up, never shows. But I expected that since he did not look like he can afford 600 let alone 200 with his PANTUFLAS wearing ass. First red flag was his understanding of what 'negotiating' was.

Is it 8 times because 8 is a lucky number?

Hagglers gotta learn “I only have $20” most likely means they only have $20, most likely we aren’t hiding another $10 on us.
It's a shame they stopped doing SleepyCast.

What Mick said in the beginning is the plot to an infamous doujin.
