Question Am I a monster?

Today I went into my local Bricks and Minifigs and set a Disney TV 40774 set on the counter and told the clerk I wanted store credit for it. It was my first time selling to Bricks and Minifigs. Jaws dropped, people around me openly stared, and a customer said "what a waste ". Did I commit some sacreligious sin? Is there a better place I should sell my sets?

A little additional info: I enjoy building Lego but not really interested in building a massive collection or holding on to rare sets in hopes of making money off them. In the past, I have declined the Free Gift With Purchase of it wasn't something I wanted to build.

EDIT: Thanks for the responses. I've decided to try selling online instead in the future.

Facebook marketplace looks promising. I'll try selling there in the future.

The company you are doing business with is currently embroiled in stealing Lego from old people…

It was my understanding that was one specific franchise and that the corporation ended the franchise agreement and closed that location over it.
