It's the reflector equivalent of the FINE operators who hang around the
on-air nets "whistling" into their microphones every time a price is quoted.


Is "rude" a good word?  Would you (not the "personal" you, the rhetorical
one) do it to the person's face?

I mean, if you don't like the price, don't buy it.  Why bash the seller
because you don't like the price?  Nobody cares. When you buy a car, do you
insult the salesman personally when he quotes the price?  Or do you
negotiate .. ?  Make a counter offer -- I'll meet you there.  Bash me?  I'd
GIVE it to the next guy in line before I'd take a dime of your money, at any
price.
