The owner was obviously happy to be rid of the old stock. They knew it wasn't moving. It is tech waste for a majority of the western world. Yes that stuff is still useful in other places arithe world, but it's just not particular to have it in a shop in urban Canada. The owner was obviously a good sport to play the games the video and expressed gratitude to be able to sell a bunch of stuff.

You've missed some social cues or are looking for any small thing to pounce on. Go touch grass.

I'm not disagreeing with you. I saw that the owner was happy. I may have missed these queues, as I am not great at being social. I am looking at the deeper meaning. I am looking not at the actions, but what it represents, which is the fact that this teaches kids that they can buy people, and be happy in a world of commercialism is all. To me this is wrong.
