How do you cope with third world store owners charging you a bit too much (for being a foreigner)?

How do you cope with third world store owners charging you a bit too much (for being a foreigner)? Sometimes I forget to ask beforehand because I am in a hurry, and they charge for some documents printed waaaay more than normal. I just pay them and never ever come back to their shop, though sometimes I tell them it is too much. They always fake it. How do you deal with this shitty attitude?

      I don't care. Not OP but I have nothing but contempt for societies that continually flail instead of advancing like Thailand and Argentina and don't want to give them a goddamn dime more than I have to.

      It is not about the money, it is about not being able to trust them at all.

      do not give them money duh
      if you already agreed to buy and they didn't tell you price say "sorry that's too much"

      1st worlders have this weird "holier than thou" attitude where they feel like it's okay for 3rd worldies to scam them because they're poor. it's not okay for anyone to scam anyone. it's dishonorable to lower your standards for humanity for them because they're shitty, brown and poor.

      Yeah, I usually ask beforehand and simetimes decline, but other times I forget and they did help me with some stuff I needed. For that reason I just pay them what they ask, because they DID serve well. It is not scamming, just charging a bit too much for something already done. it not

      >if you already agreed to buy and they didn't tell you price
      this is not "holier than thou", this is "stupider than thou"

      being stupid, it is them destroying all trust. And then they wonder why their countries are poor despite natural riches. Because you cannot trust them with 20 cents, so you cannot trust them with 20 million. Forever.

      I am OP also

          Yes, I live in a first world country so when I enter the store I can assume that the seller gives me a standard price

        You don't need to "trust" them, you need an XYZ service. If you're not happy with the price, drive it down and bargain. If it's still no good, go elsewhere. It's simple as.

        Be assertive, I swear you mongs are like daisies in person. Stop that soft shit.

          OP again

          Read my fricking posts moron, I already said it is some 50 cent shit that I do in a hurry, such as printing 2 sheets of paper. And it often happens, you DO bargain for a good price, and AFTER they provide a shitty service, because it is stuff you pay up front in some places.

          >trust them
          do you "trust" people in your home country that are trying to sell you stuff?

          what do you mean "trying" to sell? It is stuff I need because I do not carry a fricking printer with me in my travelling. Also this:

          Yes, I live in a first world country so when I enter the store I can assume that the seller gives me a standard price

          Yes. This is what living in a white country means.

          in my white home country some people just help you for free. We are talking illiterate third world POOR countries that hate foreigners because "they took mah monee dat why I poor!!"

              OP here

              I actually kekd

              I highly doubt you have actually visited much of the world outside very touristic areas.

              you are wrong though, but I am not here to boast

              You're dealing with some very inhibited autist that can't speak up for himself. So he seethes online, like a fat cow writing on some sort of a Tumblr blog about ableism.

              How much did you pay to print off these documents and what is the problem exactly? I literally cannot imagine getting this butthurt over the financials of printing off pieces of paper.

              I am not even mad at your comments, because it does look like that
              Maybe it is just my looks and my accent, that incites people to short change me on a regular basis. It happened twice today with cab drivers. I am not used to such bullshit but I am learning to speak up for myself. I did successfully demand the money back today. But generally I dont want to risk a potential fist fight for 10 cent shortchange of a clumsy currency (as in 1 million shitcurrency = 100 dollar) arguing with some lowlife, by "speaking up". And up to here is my aspie blog post today.

                Spending more time in the third world made me hate third worlders even more OP. I thought it would make me more accepting or something but it didn't.

                definitely... it is like that comic of an old man that travels around the world only to find out how primitive other people are. Using violence and extortion on a daily basis. I thought I would learn to love them, but no. It makes me want to be isolated from their "here it is like that, you need to be friends with the local narco to be able to make your legal papers..." etc

                Where have you been to? It seems like your interactions are limited to small shopkeepers and cab drivers.
