Why in the world would you wait??! $135 is practically nothing. Even IF he didn’t want it you could easily resell it to make your money back, although I highly doubt he wouldn’t have wanted it!

Well lesson learned, don’t second guess yourself next time!

Glad you're swimming in money, but to a lot of people, if not most, $135 is a lot of money.

To someone who is apparently regularly buying merch, albums and tickets for multiple artists and who has alerts set up to be notified as soon as they go on sale, not to mention who was already completely willing to spend the money but was just waiting, $135 isn't very much. Use context clues. The discussion is about this specific situation.

Plus if they are huge fans they would know the market price of her items. So if they do sell out your risk is next to nothing. Worse worse case scenario is break even.

Believe me, I know. This was a massive FU on my part. He hasn’t replied to any of my texts yet, but he’s read them all.

Just explain to him that you wanted to be financially responsible, but recognize now that $135 wouldn’t have broken you guys and immensely regret not pushing the order through. Hopefully he sees the effort and thought you put into it and can move forward quickly. Nothing can be done about it now. He knows that. But don’t say that to him because you’ll sound careless.

If he’s a jerk about it - that’s a bit sad. (And it was odd to me that you’re apologising for bugging him with his own shit? Did I misunderstand?)
