If you were simply letting each other borrow the games to try them, you really shouldn't have sold it. | ||

Young teens are good at demanding irrational things. Just ignore the neighbor. Who cares? The neighbor is a grandmother. And in recent news, we just fixed the situation. I had to act as a third party and what was agreed was that the appraisal value (she did not know what the word meant) of Saints Row 2 was down and there would be no reason to pay 60 dollars. So now, a week is being given to raise 30 dollars and my brother stupidly spend 20 dollars last night seeing two movies so I let him borrow Soul Calibur V to sell. | ||

Reminds me of my friend, who sold a game he borrowed from me. Didn't really care though, as he was a really good friend of mine, just something to laugh about years later. | ||

I'm getting confused at your definitions of trade, borrow, etc. If they traded games, then they also traded ownership, meaning he had a right to sell it. Now you say you let him borrow Soul Calibur to sell. It doesn't sound like your brother will pay you back for this. Unless you are expected a later payment for the Soul Calibur he "borrowed", it is more of a gift than a borrow. Or is it a loan...? lol | ||

Why on earth, after a trade, would you feel obligated to reimburse the person? Why on earth, after said bad trade, would you offer to give MORE than its worth? ($30 over the $20 you said earlier) I don't believe any of this.... | ||

A few years ago, a dude I know borrowed my paintball gun for a while, and I actually had to harass him big time in order to get it back. Like, I had to talk to his mother and explain to her that her son refuses to bring me back my paintball gun. I didn't ask for anything, but as a compensation, he offered to give me this paintball gun, which was broken and missing parts - as an act of "good faith". Like I said, I really didn't ask for anything, it was just a good gesture. I took it, repaired it (it cost me about $100 in parts). Literally 3-ish years later, he contacts me on facebook telling me to give it back to him. His argument was that he was only "lending" it to me. A non-functional paintball gun - why would I want to borrow that? People are dishonest. | ||

The grandma asking for a higher value than what she's missing, then the guy agreeing to pay that higher value, does NOT make sense. | ||

Take embarassing pictures of yourself wearing your brother's usual atire, and sell the pictures to the young granny for $60 to use as black mail against him, and then give your brother the $60 to give to her. Print the pictures with disappearing ink that only lasts a day to tie up loose ends and your problem is solved. | ||

I love this gif. It perfectly represents the random internet guy's expression as epicness is about to unfold in front of him. MJ does not fit in that environment, yet still he smirks as if everything around him was his. | ||
