| 1nickelmiracle Member since: Mar 5, 2013 Threads: 24 Posts: 623 | I'll ain't paying for no banana peels either and will remove them before I weigh them. Of course AP move buy one box, return for 200% money back guarantee, buy two, rinse and repeat traveling the country buying poppers and bartering them for expenses. |

Another reason is someone went through the trouble of de-boning it for you. "Everyone is entitled to his own opinion, but not to his own facts." Daniel Patrick Moynihan |

That's -EV. A banana won't even keep a day without a peel =p
It's an interesting look into psychology, for sure. I'm sure that if he were to weigh them, as Dalex (I think) mentioned, he'd find the weight matches. He's just getting less but bigger peppers, and is annoyed. And I'm sure if they packed a box full of 15 stunted little guys, most would say "Wow! Very pepper! Much cheeses! So value!" and be thrilled about it. Same weight, different presentation. And looks are all that matters. Be bold and risk defeat, or be cautious and encourage it. |

| 1nickelmiracle Member since: Mar 5, 2013 Threads: 24 Posts: 623 | I should post a math question about how many poppers should little Johnny buy at the vegas site and they'll all fail. |
