Quoted from smokey_789:

Had been looking for a nice Bally Star Trek for about a year with no luck and finally scored one 1 1/2 hours away. ON THE WAY THERE, a friend called and said a friend of his brother-in-law was in dire straights and had a pin he needed to sell. I asked what title it was and no one could remember but they thought it was a "space theme." So I said, yeah, drop it off in my garage, I'll see what it needs and try to sell it for him. When I got home that night, it was Star Trek. Hunted for a year and now had two in one day. (Kept the nicer one.)

So, you were asked to sell a pin for someone and you decided to keep it because it was in nicer condition than the one you bought... and you think that's ok? Or, you at least thought it was appropriate to compare the two to determine which one you were going to sell, and which one you were going to keep, as if one wasn't someone else's property? Cute.
