mjmjr25: good news, I found College Hoops for you!
noise: great I'll paypal you the $3 right now! What's yr pp addy again?
mjmjr25: well I'm gonna need a little more than $3...
noise: ugh, shipping! Duh! Sorry -- $5?
mjmjr25: $5.50 shipped, but also there was tax on the game.
noise: oh, right tax. Forgot. What's the tax in MN? Will $6 total cover it?
mjmjr25: $6.50 should cover tax yeah. But don't forget I had to drive to pick it up.
noise: oooh. Yeah. Gas. Um. What do you want then like $8?
mjmjr25: the Gamestop is kind of near my house. So $8.50 should take care of the gas.
noise: OK, $8.50... remind me of yr PP again?
mjmjr25: well wait, there's something else...
noise: ?
mjmjr25: I was late for work picking it up. Not super late or anything, but late enough that I had to miss my lunch.
noise: you lost me, Mike?
mjmjr25: well, it's just we ordered subs that day for lunch and one of my co-workers Gary had organized it a day in advance so I had already paid for my sub.
noise: couldn't you just eat it the next day?
mjmjr25: no, somebody else ate it when I didn't come in the lunch room. They must have thought it was an extra or something.
noise: so you want me to pay for your sub?
mjmjr25: You don't have to. But I mean, I did miss the sub because I was doing you a favor... as a friend.
noise: Ok, will $12 cover the game, shipping, tax, gas and sub then?
mjmjr25: It was a footlong.
noise: $14?
mjmjr25: Yep! $14.50 would cover the game, gas, sub, etc.
noise: Ok. So your PP address is...?
mjmjr25: the only thing I thought of is that these seem to be going for a lot on eBay.
noise: yeah I know. That's why I needed you to pick it up for me at GS.
mjmjr25: But I mean like a lot. I could sell this one on eBay and send you the $3 to buy your own copy at gamestop and still have some left over.
noise: But that doesn't help man. There were no copies near me at GS remember? Sigh. How about if I just send you like $20 to make it a bit more worth your effort?
mjmjr25: $20.50?
noise: fine dude. $20.50 -- I'm just glad to be getting a CIB copy. How does the case look BTW?
