"Now if you were a prosecutor would you really want to prosecute this case, file a suit, hire a lawyer ($200/hr as you said earlier, good job!) and go to court for a mere $500? Think again, buddy."
this shows your knowledge...of big time LACK of it.
It's NOT the Prosecutor who files the Civil Demand/Civil Lawsuit. This is separate from the Criminal Case. This is a Civil Case filed by the store and it's attorneys/collection agency.
Oh, please. Regardless, hiring a lawyer to sue someone civically in small claims court wouldn't be effective, worth the time and the money. Suing someone in small claims court would cost them more (attorney costs, costs of filing a suit) than them actually making profit themselves.
If anytime a year or two from now I get sued in small claims court, I'll come crying back onto this forum. If not, kiss your words goodbye because when's the last time you heard someone got sued by Palmer and Reifler? Never.

I recognize that your brain is roughly the size of a peanut, but who said anything about small claims court?

No, but I do believe YOUR brain is the size of a peanut. They can do three things to you (in which they won't):
1) Charge you criminally (This is why I mentioned a "prosecutor," and the stores attorneys always have the ability to charge you criminally regardless of paying or not).
2) Take you to Civil court (For a $2 item? The judge and DA are both going to get a good laugh).
3) Take you to Small Claims court (This sounds more reasonable, however, filing a suit for a $2 item isn't worth the time and money; as I said -- AGAIN and AGAIN. A $1000 item, on the other hand, could possibly be worth suing for).
Sure, losing in a Civil court case can affect your credit, but the chances of going to Civil court against Palmer or whatever law firm is highly unlikely. If you may, show me a recent article or source of someone getting sued in court.
Edit: To those two who are "law experts," in #1 in the list above, the attorneys can't directly order you to Criminal court, but can file a complaint, which could possibly (it won't) drag you into attending the mandatory court date.

Come now, little peanut, all joshing aside, you're not some sort of ignorant ying yang, are you? You want to do more with your life than flip burgers at McDonalds?
Then stop arguing with the grown-ups and start acting like one.

Woah, woah, woah. Who said I was Asian? I'm clearly Caucasian, thank you very much. And I currently reside in St. Paul, Minnesota, not Wisconsin.

Nobody said anything about your ethnicity, peanut.

Oh, please, peanut. "Ying Yang" refers to? Just because a white guy has the ability to date a Korean woman, and he has an "Asian" forum username, Ying Yang is the way to go?
Go, you, little peanut,
