I've been waiting 'til i could add something to this, and it wasn't a long wait...
I'm not a master yet, and I'm just working the slicing tree, standing in Eisley.
MonCal: Can you slice my armour?
Me: Sure, I can 'enhance' stuff
MonCal: Are you expensive?
Me: I have a price. Up to you if you pay it...
MonCal:lol
Me: It's 3k per slice. Please check out my bio before we continue
MonCal: How do I do that?
At this point alarm bells should have started ringing. Still I explain how and let him read my spiel on randomness of slicing, appeasement of the gods etc
MonCal: You see what I'm wearing?
Me: (a bit confused) Well, yeah...
MonCal: Can you slice that?
Me: Yeah. It's 3k a slice. How many pieces?
MonCal: About 5 or 6.
Me: (rubbing hands together) I'll do you a deal - say 15k the lot.
MonCal: Cool! Do you have any armour on you?
Me: (even more confused) Yeah.
MonCal: What type?
Me: Ubese and comp
MonCal: Can I wear a comp helmet?
At this point we still haven't traded and I clearly had my head in the clouds...
Me: Not sure.
MonCal: Trade it to me.
Me: Why?
MonCal: So I can see before I waste my money!
Me: No, it's my personal armour.
Anyone else see where this is going?
MonCal: But how will I know if I've wasted my money?
Me: What?
MonCal: Do you have any to sell me?
Me: (realisation finally dawning) Ah, no. I just slice it. 3k per piece. Do you want me to slice your armour?
MonCal: You sure you don't have any to sell.
Me: No I just slice it. Try Calis in Mos Lyria.
MonCal: Oh, Ok. So you don't have any to sell me?
Me: No, I told you: Try Calis in Mos Lyria. I just slice.
MonCal: You sure you don't have any?
Me: (after wasting about 20mins and fit to kill) /emote blow own head off...
In a perverse kind of way it's actually fun sometimes when you look back on it...

I've finally gotten a few of these ...
Uber Compo Dude (UCD): Slice my armor.
me: Sure. Just read my bio for my price range. (it's 4-10K based on percentage range)
UCD: That's expensive.
me: So is your armor.
UCD: I can't pay that.
me:Ahhh. You're trying to weasle me down so you can afford a buff, right?
UCD: I don't have any money. I spent it on this armor.
me: Well it sounds like you need to take armor over to Dantooine and get thee to some missions.
UCD: [turns and runs away]
===================
A few days ago ...
dude: /tell Dude, slice my weapon. (notice the pattern with people who do not ask you how you are or if you are free or willing to slice?).
me: Me?
dude: Well yeah. I'm right in front of you.
me: Do I look like a Dude, Dude? (my avatar is a sexy little, lavendar twi'lek
dude: Huh 
me: DO I LOOK LIKE A DUDE?
dude: [says nothing]
me: I don't think thatI look like a dude. Aren't dudes, often , males, guys ...or in general of the masculine disposition and appearance?
dude: Are you slicing or not? [I can hearhis brain shutting down because I tried to place a thought into it]
me: How nice of you to ask.
dude: [silent]
me: [silent .. but waiting ... some good time is passing here. I'm smiling big time just waiting for this dude to scream at me.]
dude: [silent]
me: Um, no. I know you can't afford it. Read my bio for prices.
dude: That's expensive. I can't afford that. [...he runs into the starport]
me: See you! Doooooood!

Heres another slicer.
i sent out my slicing spam and got a tell
niceguy: i have 8 containers
me: ok, but i'm only a novice its a 50/50 chance they won't open
niceguy: ok just a second let me see if there are any clamps on the baazar
so i wait for a few minutes and he comes back and with his containers is a crate of clamps
i get the containers open and hand them back, he finds 2 more containers inside those containers
i'd never heard of that happening before, so i take those and open them. i open the trade window.
niceguy: you can keep the clamps i'll never have a use your them
me: thx, i can slice weapons now so if you have anything you need a minor slice on i'll do it.
niceguy: not yet but i'll remember that.
then he tips me 5k, for a novice and someone who usually spends money as fast as they get it this is a lot. so i send a tell to a smuggler and i get training i couldn't find any upgrade kits so i just send out my spam.
idiot: i have containers slice them
me: ok i'm in front of the cantina
idiot: ok i'll be there in a minute
a minute later he walks up
idiot: YOUR JUST A NOVICE!!!
me: yes
idiot: CAN YOU EVEN SLICE CONTAINERS????????
me: yes but its a 50/50 chance they won't open ( i decided that i wouldn't use any clamps)
idiot: i guess you'll have to do hurry up and open these.
i open one and its empty i decided to see if the next one had 2 then i could just switch one. i fail on the next one. so i look in my inventory and i have a CDEF pistol so i put that in
me: i failed on one the other has 1 item
i open the trade window and give them back
idiot:YOU PUT A LOCKED ONE IN SLICE IT!!!!
me: i failed on it, it can't be opened now i told you that i have a 50/50 chance.
idiot: oh fine
idiot: all thats in here is a CDEF pistol this is worthless
me: sorry you should be glad you got something a lot are empty
idiot: fine thx but i'm not paying for this
me: ok i said in my spam i'm not charging
idiot: at least you do something right
/ignore idiot

Me: no i didn't
Guy: well the CS guys just told me to calm down and not report people for no reason or they will punish me for wasting time and stuff you A$$!

My response would have been "/report guy". Both in actuality and in chat, of course

I would have used clamps... and cut the wrong wire on every single one of them.

One guy just about brought me to the edge about slicing containers. I was at fort tusken gaining pistol XP, and this guy asked if I could slice his containers for him. I was in the middle of fighting with only about 20 mins left on my buff so I wanted to keep fighting as long as I could. He was like a master pikeman and had already several times stolen my kills, forcing me to get less XP and lose looting rights. It told him I was busy at the moment but he was so persistant. He said "I'm your shadow until you slice" and proceded to follow me and steal all my kills, so I couldn't gain XP or loot. He was being such a little SOB, I just sliced them for him and his little friend.

Don't mean to sound harsh, but those who purposefully challange random passersby to duels are just asking to get thier ass handed to them.
