To have sent this young lad away?

[Charlieboo30]

Just snuggled on the sofa with a duvet (not well) when there's a knock on the door.

Go to open it and there's a young lad who was really polite. He explained that he had recently got out of a young offenders but wasn't a 'troublemaker anymore' and had been taken on by a company selling things door to door. He had ID and it all seemed as legit as it could. He asked if he could show me the items and I said I was no thanks. To be honest, I'm not well and I don't think I've got much cash on me (maybe £2 in my purse!)

I have never seen anybody look so crushed and upset in my life. I now feel so bad and a bit teary. DP always says I'm far too gullible in these situations. Just interested to see what others think?

Sorry for x post, arse of a connection.

It's been a tit today.

I've had three guys round recently saying the same thing. I bought from the first guy because I wanted to give him a break, said no to the second as the quality of the goods was crap and he swore at me. Said no to the third as I was on my way to drop off dh at the train station and he was waiting for me when I got back! I ended up buying again as I felt pressured to do so. I'm going to have to grow a pair aren't I? I think I must be on mug list as I've bought before.
