In Reply to: What's the most you've been RIPPED OFF?! posted by brad on Tuesday, 15. March 2005 at 19:40 Bali Time:
First time in Bali. Bought several moonstones for what I thought was a decent price (can't remember how much). 10 minutes later, 100 yards down the street, same moonstones for half the price, then another 100 yards down the same street, same moonstones for half that again. That was my first big rip-off. There have been several others since then.
I think there's a rip-off at least once every trip. Just have to laugh about it.
