I'm definitely one of the payer types. If I'm clumsy enough to drop it, bang it or knock it, I'm responsible.

I think I might be arguing about the value of that broken cup, though. Sounds like a scam for the shop owner to make a profit. Have seen "valuable" objects purchased at garage sales and then placed where you could almost guarantee they would be knocked down before. There is a cynic in me.
