What a dick!
And so you buy spots for something that does not convert for awhile.. and when the owner tries to pull this shit, none of it ever converts, then you put back what does convert but you say something like you're listing this because it's a friend you're trying to help even though his site sucks and doesn't convert

See that would have worked
