[ WP ] What would you do for a klondike bar ?

He actually brought it with him. What an idiot. 
 
 `` You do know the going rate for one of these, do n't you?'' 
 
 I only nod. Yeah, I know the going rate, hombre. A year ago bidding on eBay for the final lot of KB's was up to $ 25,000 per. A few months ago the market for them went underground and every wealthy asshole who collects Barbie dolls, PEZ dispensers, instruments of torture or rare occult items bound in human leather wanted their hands on one. 
 
 He closes the briefcase and lets his arm fall to his side. It's handcuffed to his wrist. Stupid. 
 
 `` You might be wondering why I asked to meet you here, of all places.'' 
 
 Because you're a pompous prick who likes to act tough and wants to live through the excitement of making a million dollar deal in some grungy basement with leaky pipes in the middle of Montreal? I see your suit. Five hundred bucks at most. You're in over your head, mister. 
 
 He points at my own briefcase and smiles. It's not cuffed to me. I squeeze my gloved hand tighter around its handle. The leather on leather creaks. 
 
 `` Is it all there?'' 
 
 Oh yeah, it's all there, hombre. He smiles. I stare at him from behind sunglasses that cost more than his cheap suit. 
 
 `` May I see?'' 
 
 I lay my briefcase down on the chipped concrete floor. I open it and step away. It's dark, so he has to lean down to get a good look at what's inside. When his smile fades, I know it's time to get to work. 
 
 `` What... is this?'' 
 
 It's all he can mutter before I'm behind him with my own pair of handcuffs. Before he knows it his free arm is against the wall, chained to a rusty pipe. One clean punch to this moron's face and he's clutching his broken nose. Can barely talk. Hell, he can barely stand. Time to work quickly. I head back to my briefcase and pull out the hatchet. 
 
 What a person will do for one of these stupid things. Some people will trade one for political power. Others will actually pay millions to eat one of the final five. Me? Hell, I just do whatever my boss tells me to. 
 
 What I do n't do is feel the least bit bad about the mess I make of this guy's suit.
