All of these questions are the EXACT reason I don't make stuff for the public or stock a vendor.

I had one of these the other day.
Them: Hi <--- i know from hereon that it's not going to be pleasant
Me: Hello?
Them: How many krayt tissues do I need for a T21?
Me: You'll need 11 to make a T21
Them: Oh ok I only have 6
Me: Well, (checks web) I can make a DXR-6b Disruptor Rifle with that .. I have the bits required it would just be xxx for the assembly .. make a nice rifle with green cubes, have very high condition
(can't remember how much I quoted now, but it wasn't far off cube cost, I was interested to see how it would turn out)
*pause of about 5 minutes*
Them: I don't believe you I think you are trying to rip me off
Me: Excuse me?
Them: I just spoke to a WS and he said you need one krayt tissue to make a T21
Me: Then he is not a very good WS
Them: I think you are trying to rip me off
Me: 11 for a T21, anyone who tells you otherwise is trying to rip *you* off
Them: he is a master WS <---- and I'm not? smacktard
Me: So am I.. he's clearly never made a T21 then

I had a classic one a few nights ago. I put an advert in the auction channel for my vibro weapons and vendor location.
30 seconds later I get a tell:
Them: Can you make VK's?
Me: I replied with the exact same advert.
Them: Whats the max damage on your VK's?
Me: 220 max damage (Yes, it was in the advert. I had already sent him)
Him: Is it sliced.
Me: Yes
Him: Oh, forget it then. I want a VK with 200 max damage unsliced.
/sigh.
I am yet to add anyone to my ban list or ignore list. Its getting close now I am starting to get my name out there a bit. I received my first hate email too on wednesday. It was a classic, I am going to print of off and frame it on my wall.
It went something like this:
**edit**!!! YOUR PRICES ARE TOO F**ING HIGHER!!11! NO ONE WILL EVER BUY THEM N00B MORON!!!!
I replied with: Thanks for your concern. while you were writing your email to complain about my prices I made 3.6million credits. Feel free to come again

The saying goes, "The customer is always right."
I propose a new saying.
"The customer is full of **edit**."

Hate mail is funny. The guy did take the time to reply twice though.
It was along the lines of:
I TOLD YOU TO SHUT YOUR MOUTH! I WILL COME EVERTHERE AND SEE HOW MANY VIBRO MOTORS I CAN SHOVE UP YOUR ARSE!!!
I replied with:
Thank you for your concern about my prices being too high. Unfortunatly I can not sell you any 220+dmg vibro knucklers at the moment as I have completly sold out of all my stock. Please visit again on the weekend as I will have more stock in.
Kind regard,
Bhozar
I do hope he replies again, it gives me the biggest chuckle

Me: hey there.
Him: Can you make me a Horned Helmet.

Me: Only what?
Him: Weaponsmith.
Me: And you want me to make.....?
Him: A Horned Helmet. For a Wookie.
Me: Which would be a piece of........?
Him: Armour.

Hey, I find with most people the gerbil isn't dead, it just needs a moment to remember where the wheel is.
