On one hand I see his point, Bell should have said something once the bill started to get high. And to their credit it does appear they acknowledge that by saying they will only charge him $4000 instead of $85,000. And I do also know I may not always read all the terms and conditions with online purchases.

But at some point you do need to take responsibility for you actions, don't you?

It shows what Bell's margins are on this type of business if they can profitably knock the bill from $85,000 to $4,000.

But the guy should know better and take the mercy while he can and call it a lesson in life.

I was actually considering doing the same thing then did the math and quickly scrambled for the exit.
