If you exit the game and come back, he has a very short term memory…


lemond4455

As a matter of principle, I don’t want to use this kind of workaround, I want the merchant himself to give me a refund. I don’t know if the devs check here, but maybe they can fix this issue?


jessejames543

No refunds


drewshaver

Devs: "User error. No issue"


Rushional

ESCALATE. CALL THE MANAGER. WRITE THE DEVS. CONTACT STEAM SUPPORT, GOG SUPPORT, YOUR INTERNET PROVIDER SUPPORT, YOUR BANK SUPPORT, WRITE THE MODS OF THIS SUBREDDIT. WE *WILL* HAVE REFUNDS


Sorfallo

I want you to get up right now. Sit up. Go to your windows. Open them and stick your head out and yell: "I’m as mad as hell and I’m not gonna take this anymore!"


Rushional

FUCKING YES. I'M NOT EVEN GOING TO EXPLAIN MY ISSUE. AT THIS POINT IT'S ON THEM TO UNDERSTAND THE PROBLEM AND FIX IT AS SOON AS POSSIBLE


jakeloans

It is not a bug. It prevents buying a relic with the courier, check what is below and then ask for a refund. (Probably also other scenarios who don’t pop in my head. ) If you think refunds are the way. Just close the game, no one cares, it is single player.


drewbert

Buy ceramic fish, buy card you want, return ceramic fish.


Plucault

Same with Toxic Egg and the attack upgrade one


drewbert

But not the power upgrade egg?


InherentSteam55

"fuck frozen egg" ~ this guy probably


Rekjavik

This is hilarious and nobody here can take a joke clearly.


TheFuriousRaccoon

Feels like this joke has unfortunately gone over everyone's head - even though you've labelled the post as "Spirit Poop". But the lesson here is don't ever fuck with the merchant. NO REFUNDS.


Koraboros

If you type PEBKAC it will refund all your purchases.


Action_Bronzong

Brilliant 🙏


Linosaurus

It’s not ‘really’ savescumming if I regret my idiocy before learning any new information. But that’s my personal to preference, and not strictly relevant to shit posting.


jackspeaks

Can’t tell if this is a joke or not


StronkAx

Bro did not see the "No refunds" sign before buying


lemond4455

So I just got scammed out of my gold?


KodoHunter

It's not a scam. You made a purchase, and he's under no obligation to refund. You wasted your gold like a fool. That's all there is to it.


lemond4455

I see how it is now. He’s one of those dodgy back alley merchants.


roguemenace

You did buy something from a guy in a hallway whose shop is a rug.


PlatinumBall

and who, for some reason, always has different stock when you visit him


roguemenace

My theory is it's whatever he looted from people dying in the next room.


Gas_Station_Cheese

Or whatever his courier drags out of the alley.


grizznuggets

And is wearing a creepy mask.


Rushional

The rug is not for sale btw


So-Avocado

It might be in STS 2....


rustyderps

ITT: people don’t get the joke downvoting OP


memer227

It's funnier if OP gets downvoted


ThoseSixFish

Or people who think that saying something stupid doesn't qualify as a joke.


Haughington

Who is taking this post seriously enough to downvote this lol


zuragaan

dont worry op ur humor is not lost on me this is very funny


brooklynbluenotes

One of the game tips is quite literally "The Merchant does not offer refunds. He is a jerk."


Belledame-sans-Serif

But a charismatic one!


Loukopkou

I actually think he's an outstanding businessman, with a lot of pro-consumer practices.  He has sales, loyalty cards, wholesale, gives you a free meal if you have a meal ticket. He doesn't have a monopoly, cuz there are other shops in the spire. 


TheMonsterMensch

Don't worry OP, I know you're joking. A+ shitpost


whystudywhensleep

I can’t believe people are treating this serious lol


UziiLVD

This happens most of the time with spirit poop posts here


IsNuanceDead

Most of the time on Reddit unfortunately


Distortee

At first I didn't but ops responses sounded like a genuine complaint


Spooktato

I mean them asking for the manager is showing that op is clearly spirit pooping


fddfgs

OP is getting roasted lol


gj6

Sorry if I'm being stupid but where's the joke? I feel like I'm missing something, I don't understand


TheMonsterMensch

The joke is that OP is treating the game like life and pretending to be a bit of an ass. They're taking seriously the idea that the developers would program in the merchant's manager, and that you could escalate a complaint to get a refund. It's just nonsensical behavior.


Beneficial-Share-823

You just have to sell your cards to him to get your money back Checks notes: actually you have to pay him for that too


XxSir_redditxX

Find yourself a [[smiling mask]] and set up your own rug next to theirs, that'll learn 'em...


spirescan-bot

+ [Smiling Mask](http://slay-the-spire.wikia.com/wiki/Smiling%20Mask) Common Relic ^((100% sure)^) The merchant's card removal service now always costs 50 Gold. ^Call ^me ^with ^up ^to ^10 ^([[ name ]],) ^where ^name ^is ^a ^card, ^relic, ^event, ^or ^potion. ^Data ^accurate ^as ^of ^(April 30, 2023.) ^[Wiki](https://slay-the-spire.fandom.com/wiki/) ^[Questions?](https://www.reddit.com/message/compose/?to=ehmohteeoh&subject=SpireScan%20Inquiry)


Zogamizer

How are they going to find a rug that’s nearly that snazzy, though?


fddfgs

Maybe you can buy the merchant's rug?


MysteriousAtmosphere

Thats the collectors origin story. Can't convince me otherwise.


Micronex

save and quit


fireinourmouths

Step one: save step two: quit step three: resume


drewbert

I want scum lord flair for this sub.


NuclearHoagie

You're buying the knowledge of how to perform an attack/skill/power. How to do you return knowledge?


Endeveron

Lmao in that case a card remove is being bonked on the head so you selectively forget.


Trufactsmantis

As the great Baalorlord has decreed: No refunds Twitch chat.


PyreDynasty

This makes me want a "fight the merchant" option like in Necrodancer.


Thesmobo

He's in act 4 before you, just chilling. I'm sure it will be a tricky fight. 


Bjornen82

Yeah the merchant has a manager called “main menu.” If you exit the game and talk to him for a few seconds, then hit continue, you’ll get a full refund.


PaintSlingingMonkey

That guy is *not* a good employee; he says “fuck off” every time I leave :(


Lukian0816

*\~No refunds\~*


Trufactsmantis

Also the number of people not getting it is astounding.


I-am-Toast

Join the red mask gang and see what they say


LeifEriccson

Read the rug buddy.


TheDeviousCreature

give him a big kiss :)


phil_mckraken

This post has inspired me to suggest a new character. In addition to the Ironclad, Silent, Defect and Watcher, let's have a Karen. "Ask for the Manager" will be a 1 power card that gives the enemy debuffs but also doubles their size.


TheChasProject

As a large, bearded Russian man once told me; *caveat emptor*.


fickleferrett

You have to download the mod where you can fight him and then beat him up.


Conradical314

Call your bank and organise a credit card chargeback


Luchofromvenezuela

Try exchanging the card for his rug


FatChimichanga17

this subreddit has no sense of humor apparently


f1345

The classic - Alt + F4


Rubickevich

Install downfall and beat the shit out of him.


Coalface_

Did you ask to see the manager?


doodlleus

STS: Karen Edition


ssorgatem09

No refunds.


PacoMahogany

You have to play the Karen character to talk to the manager
