Yeah, it's all right to take someone else's money because it will teach them a lesson. Nice logic pal.

He didn't take anyone's money.
The dumb store boy didn't take his money.
Don't worry Mule, something good will come of this, don't be a pessimist.
There is always a brightside to every story,

How would you feel if I find your car with your keys in it and take it, helping to teach you to not leave your keys in your car? That's the same thing.

Wrong, Wrong, Wrong.......What school are you going to????
No that is not the same, next.
That is stealing, LOL.
I did not write out a reciept and have you sign it stating that, that was the correct amount for the car/saw, and then in the course of a business transaction both parties agreed that, $600 was the correct price, AND IT WAS PAID.
You are trying to steal my car, which is a crime in most countries, where as the store boy through his own stupidity wrote up an incorrect "contract" for a saw..... that is not stealing, that is stupidity.
I thought you were studying to be a lawyer??? Don't these law schools have standards anymore.
Sad,

Weather my brother calls the place back that is up to him. Me I guess I am a bad person because I don't feel bad about some 40 year old pot head that can't figure it out. I leave it up to the owner to police his guys. If the owner called I would give himhis money.

Your reading comprehension is lacking. $650 was the agreed upon price, and it was not paid. $600 was incorrect.

So, it's ok to take things from potheads that aren't yours? Is that what you're saying?

Hey, lawyer, go back and read what the price on the Credit Card reciept said...........I'll wait............
Me, "Like I was saying during the course of a business transaction the agreed to price was how much????????????"
Spacemule,"$600, Teacher."
Me,"Thank you, Spacemule, that is correct the correct amount of the signed business contract filled out by the store's employee was $600, which was paid in full by the thread starter's brother. Class is dismissed now."
You've been great Spacemule, you try hard, but given time and guidiance by other senior attorney's you will one day pick up on these little details.
Have a great day,
Sam

Well guys, I'd love to stay and lecture to all you lesser mortals on morals (say that five times fast), but I'm off for the rest of the week for spring break and am going to be out of town. Catch you later!

Agreed, and the hole in the end my this squirt gun is so big I can't build up any pressure which is so critical for good range. Ah well, you can't win them all..........Right Spacemule??

If you'll notice, I posted earlier that the receipt was $600 and that was all that the seller can now legally get. You fail to distinguish a discussion between morals and one of law. You can't justify your lack of morality by pointing out the legal outcome. As you've said, us lawyers have no morals.
And with that, I'm off.

No you tried to steal my car, which is a crime and immoral.
I am only advocating that if the thread starter's brother paid a business contract filled out by a hired store employee, he did not commit a crime, and ONLY suffers from the immoral portion of this story.
The aforemention description shows that you did not provide this thread with an appropriate or relevant example which is simple and only immoral. You provided this thread with an example that involved both criminal action and immorality...........and you were commiting it on top of it.
And you think you will make it in the real world, sad.
Have fun on vaction. Its raining here.
Don't do anything immoral, we wouldn't want to be discussing such topics as morallity with a hypocrite and a liar.

Congrats on the excellent price for the 460!
I wouldn't have brought the mistake of the salesperson up either. He's paid to do a job...not my fault he wasn't able to do his job...next job maybe he will have learned from this mistake. Guess I must have low morals ehh?

You are obviously a good judge of your own moral character.

I commend you on your honesty.
I would like to point out though that you stated and I quote,"I wouldn't have brought the mistake of the salesperson up either."
This is an alleged "mistake" it could be the salesman knew full well of his actions and intentions, and simply forgot to verbalize the change in the price. Perhaps he felt bad about something he had done to the brothers sister who had work at the same store and this was his way of making up for it.
Who knows, the thing is, why beat up the members for getting such a good deal, when they paid what was asked of them???

Is it better to be honest and of low moral constitution?
Or
Lie and say I am of high moral constitution?
I'm asking you?

GJ on getting a great price on the saw. It's not your job to make sure the store doesn't get screwed it's your job to make sure you don't. If they're willing to get rid of that saw for 650 then selling it at 600 isn't going to be any worse consequence to the store. It's already to cheap as is. I know many of you think this is wrong but tbh fine good for you.
If you go into home depot to buy some tool that costs 350 bucks. After getting to the register you realize they only rang it up for 100. Are you going back to the store and pay the 250 difference? I'm just curious. If we're talking small mom/pop store then yeah I'll go back and pay the difference however large business sales? sorry they made a mistake and I reaped the benefit of that mistake.
Do you give an ebay seller the extra 200 bucks between what the saw is worth and what you bought it for? Just because you got a good deal doesn't mean it was your fault. Now if you had something to do with the price mistake directly then shame on you. Salesman to computer rang the price YOU never touched it. You told him what you would pay for it. He agree'd and still charged less? sounds like a good deal to me. Hey lets talk about PPE more can we? that's a better subject.

From a societal perspective,it is obviously better for you to be honest about your apparent low moral character and save others from having to learn for themselves.
