I remember when I was quite a bit younger (maybe 15-16 years old or so) at a show I tried to inform an older dealer that he had made a mistake on a card and it was worth more, he told me to F*** off and got pissed, I learned my lesson that day it is best not to patronize the seller and to just buy the good deal and walk away.
Agreed, falls under the category of know your cards. Sellers do not hesitate to try and get the most from their cards at shows including sometimes trying to overcharge for cards so catching an occasional break is okay.
