Well..I guess they really underestimated you. Anyways, friend, im really glad that you are safe and sound. This is not a new happening unfortunately. I guess every 1 out of 10 regular sellers was robbed or almost robbed at a point in time. Im really pissed off when i come to know that these people are not poor. These are rich ones.
For those who think that dealing alone is fine and 'kuch nahi hota yar', you should have gotten the gist now. jShak is not looking for popularity and praise etc. He shared a true story so that one could learn.
