You see it a lot at ATMs in Vegas: a card is declined, and the cardholder re-attempts it over and over and over while you wait behind him.
It reminds me of the James Bond picture where Bond kills the villain by cutting his own shoelaces, causing the villain to fall out of an airplane. The villain is seen falling 10,000 feet, clutching the shoe like a security blanket all the way down. The shoe isn't going to save him; and credit cards don't magically start working the 2nd or 3rd or 5th time.
Hey, I ain't Rockefeller. I've been tapped out, declined, etc. My time is valuable so GTFO after the first decline. Call the number on the back of the card.
