True but the OP stated in a subsequent post that this is not his style and would not do it even in the future. His loss. End. Of. Story.
My reply was sentimental and taken a bit outta context. I may not feel compelled to bargain in specific circumstance in original post, but I'd highly unlikely get myself into same situation again. Biz is biz... No twice shame on me thing...

I concentrate my flights on DL/ST last year. DL PM now and will hit DM on scheduled flights within a few months. More long hauls than domestic so not quite often encounter VDB. It's definitely first time no dollar amount was announced calling for VDB and turned into tricky situation.
For the sake of discussion, it's poor biz practice to play regular client like one-timer, at least
After all, material impact is minuscule but surely left a little bad taste in mouth over much goodwill DL has built over the years. Keep climbing...
