<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Troodon, post: 26514704, member: 4626&quot;]And here I thought we already reached the &quot;let&#039;s agree to disagree&quot; stage.&nbsp; I was trying to dismount somewhat gracefully, but oh well.&nbsp; I was bad at gymnastics.</p><p><br /></p><p>I understand the core topic completely (I fully understand what this thing is; the only thing I don&#039;t &quot;understand&quot; is the urge to spend money on something where in all likelihood you&#039;re just going to get ripped off.&nbsp; And receiving something that&#039;s worth less than what you paid is precisely that, no matter how much you want to dress it up).&nbsp; I just don&#039;t agree.&nbsp; The basic fact is, that unless someone is lucky, they&#039;re going to get something of less worth than they paid.&nbsp; Pointing that out seems like a meaningful contribution to me; if I&#039;ve saved anyone any money that would otherwise be considering this, my job is done.&nbsp; Anyone that wants to spend their money on that anyway, their money, their business.&nbsp; But there&#039;s plenty of other threads here where members point out things they believe to be wastes of money and advise people to not buy them.&nbsp; Why is what I did any worse than that?&nbsp; If anything I&#039;ve held back quite a bit.&nbsp; I could be a lot more blunt if I wanted to.</p><p><br /></p><p>I guess the only thing I don&#039;t really understand is why people feel a need to defend what they like against people saying they don&#039;t.&nbsp; Do people&#039;s enjoyment of a thing really depend on other people agreeing with them?&nbsp; I guess I can only speak for myself and say it&#039;s not the case for me.</p><p><br /></p><p>But last thing I have to say on this issue in particular.&nbsp; Have a nice day.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
