coin Nazi

Someone sent me an email with the attached graphic.

This is in reference to the television show "Seinfeld"

I thought it was funny, but I still blocked him.

What happened is that he ordered a coin and checked out with paying by check, but he lives outside the US and I only accept checks drawn from US banks. He also asked what my best price was-- after already checking out and then asked if I take Paypal. I explained to him that I was canceling the order as he checked out with a payment method I would not accept. I showed him my terms page where all the info was clearly stated...including not asking me about discounts. This guy delayed in properly checking out and several hours later, someone else bought the coin --who had no problem checking out...same as most of my customers.

Then, the original confused checkout guy got angry with me and called me a coin Nazi!  :D

I really like that Seinfeld episode and have even jokingly used the phrase with my wife "no coin for you!" after blocking someone.
