comment What's the word for someone who pretends to buy something from a street-seller, in order to draw other people?
I don't know the word for it but a related technique I've seen involves a jewellery store temporarily closing their shop doors, installing a queue line, and a product spruiker. When people think there is only a limited number of items available, and others start queuing up, they naturally get interested in what's on offer.

comment What would you call someone who imposes on other people's generosity?
I've heard it used in a positive way to describing a child's impressive learning abilities.
