2 things would happen if this was me. Ask him to refund the money he got for selling them as he did not buy 200 in dollar store toys and the second he would not be my friend anymore.
You did what you thought was a good deed at the time. Sadly it resulted in setting the threshold for your BS filter, much much lower. Personally I would give papacrackaddict (I love that name BTW) one heck of a verbal dressing down for taking a crap on your good deed. Not that it would necessarily make him feel bad for what he did, but it would sure as hell make me feel a lot better, plus he'll know not to try any shit like that with you again.
Revenge man. Go put some gravel in his shoes, so when he goes to put his shoes on, he'll be all like "Hey, there's gravel in my shoes!". Next, loosen all of the tops on his salt and pepper shakers, so he'll pour more salt/pepper out by accident the next time he goes to eat. Next, unscrew his shower head, and put some rock candy in there. Next time he turns on the shower, the candy will melt, fuse with the water, and coat his body in a sticky solvent. Finally, shoot up all of his furniture.
Seeing that you lost some really good stuff, have some revenge! You did a good deed but he took advantage of your generosity and now you have to make him pay back and NOT continue being his friend again.
You know what, there is a lot to be learned here. You gotta decide if you need a friend like this really. I have had people do similar things to me in the past. It's fine with me though, for one reason, that person is no longer my friend after that point. If it costs you $20 or $50 or whatever to see your friend is not worth trusting, then it is money well spent. This way, when there is a real problem, you will have good friends around you.
I had a friend who screwed up once...I got that awesome special edition Optimus Prime (I think from Armada) that came with a trailer/battle station with GOLD minicon, my friend wanted to "borrow" it and ended up breaking it. This was on my birthday as well
That's terrible. Over most likely $200 bucks in TFs, and he goes and sells them on eBay. I hope he gets what he deserves.
agreed with this unfortunately, i'd be getting him out of your life until he cleans up, that kind of "friend" wouldn't hesitate to break into your house imo
nicksteele66, don't let what has happened stop you being a nice guy. You just have to learn who to be nice to. I for one think what you did was awesome, and if more people were like you then maybe the world wouldn't be so fucked up.
Sorry to hear about that.You think you're doing a good deed,and your "friend" totally takes advantage of you.Some friend he is.
You did the right thing. Your friend did not. I feel bad that his kids are missing out on those good figures.
I had a friend that took advantage of something I did for him as well. Worse case scenerio: Lets say he kicks you while you are down. He had no humility in him. However, I do believe in God and he did tell us to give food to our enemies if they are starving and drink if they thirst. So I'm not friends with this guy, but if I do see that he is suffering, and I feel God is leading me to help him, I will. For now, I just want nothing to do with this guy nor should he receive my niceness anymore ( doesn't mean I'll curse and stuff, I'll just either ignore him or say hi and walk away.) You seem like a nice guy Nick. Continue to be happy, don't let it get you. Vengeance is the Lord's I believe, so go on and do your stuff.
Agreed. That has to be one of the scumiest (that a word?!?) things ive heard on the boards since a guy admitting to stealing guns from voyager boxes. That too. Its one thing to be nice and give stuff away, but..C'mon...Those ones specifically shouldnt have just been givin away, to lil kids... when if you wanted to do that you could have hit TRU and got some ROTF deluxes for 3 for 1.
doesn't sound like much of a friend to me.. You did a nice thing to help someone's children and you should look at like your friend basically stole from them thier xmas presents
