All of this started because in response to an extremely concrete question, what's the cost of transaction data for a tightly constrained population, you replied with a smug non-answer about the greed of salespeople. These questions only got "belligerent" because every single answer has been nonsense insisting that it's super easy and cheap but also I couldn't possibly name a single site where this data is sold or provide even an order of magnitude of cost. Or maybe now it requires HBO levels of funding, who knows.

I offered sage advice on how to negotiate when you don’t know a firm price on anything whether that be data or a car or a home remodeling. If you want to say that advice was a smug answer then that’s on you. Every answer after has just gone further and further off the rails

Nah there's no way you actually watch John Oliver because that was really funny. Anyways, you mentioned earlier that we wouldn't believe you even if you posted receipts but that's actually exactly what we want to see. Like, just the name of a business, the thing that was sold, and the price.
