I have 4 brand new HD videos. The price would normally be 650 for all of them. I have a sale for the package for 500 tokens for August. I personally feel this is a steep discount (basically it's buy 3 vids get an entire one free.) I cropped some unimportant lines from pub chat below:
I had been verbally replying things like "well the sale is ALL month long, so you have plenty of time! Just come back when you can and they'll be waiting for you" and "and don't forget you can just buy SOME of the vids and not all of them, that'll be less than 500" the entire time.
Now I know "it's only 10 tokens" but it's the principle of the matter. When a store has a sale on something at a steep discount, you can either afford it at that rate, or you don't buy it... you don't go up to the register and ask for more of a discount. I feel like making exceptions (especially publicly where it sets a visible example to EVERYONE watching) is a slippery slope. Let one person get an extra 10 tokens off a deal, the next person wants 15 off, then 20 off... it's best to just stand your ground to start with.
I thought maybe he had missed the comment from Duo about the token donation, so I PM'd him:
So of course I 60-day banned, because if I wasn't worth the 490 tokens then, I won't ever be, and it was a dick move ultimately.
So, lessons learned here?
1. Giving people the benefit of the doubt is risky, best just to say NO and move on.
2. Comments made by models' regulars do sometimes affect her tokens
3. Members: donating tokens to a newcomer/stranger will probably end with disappointment.
4. Most members don't have "real life bills" (according to this dude) so the ones that do have real life bills should get a steeper discount than everyone else. :thumbleft:

Her underwater video is 511 MB at 10:38 mins and that's about half of what a video of mine would be at that length.
