$108 charges on Pokerstars cashout - Page 2 - Internet Poker

Do you put up with being ripped off just because you can afford it? $108 isnt a small amount. People get mugged for less money than that. I was charged $400 for an oil change the one and only time I went to the Ferrari dealer for an oil change. That's only .5% of the value of their average car. I never went back. In the words of a Southwest Airlines commercial "I'm rich not stupid"

That would actually be considered cheap for an oil change on a Ferrari and yes being a life nit over things that by poking around could cause massive issues not only for you but for lots of other people is generally considered -EV. I don't want to start openly discussing how payment processors could operate but if you took the time to think about it I think you'd realize how everything said by both Wells Fargo and Stars could both be true and that no one is lying to you or ripping you off.

There's no question you got ripped off more on the purchase of that Ferrari than you did on the oil change.

Imho the charge was high, but no good can come from debating\disputing it with the bank. Being aware of the bank wires situation, I'd take the hit and bitch about it to PS, not the bank.

Not caring about $108 seems like a bit of a ******ed statement regardless of what your talking about.

This mentality is why I'm so glad to do sports rather than play poker. Online poker has shifted the demographic of poker players to something that is rather sad.
