I was at an antique show in early October. There were two baseball games (cardboard mat and paper mat) I was interested in buying. The paper mat was also associated with a gas station. I had already spent my budget for the day, and I told the dealer I was willing to meet his price + shipping if he would give me his business card and I could contact him later. He told me he refused to ship because he was retired and didn't want that hassle in his life. I walked away without them, and he missed a sale because he valued his "free time" more than the shipping cost. I was completely blown away by that decision.
