I took it more like galactic credits are banned on Tatooine , and no trader who didn’t want any trouble with the Hutts would be dealing with them. Taking them on would be a world of trouble, like fencing stolen goods
Thanks for explaining it. I’m not well versed on Star Wars. Seems like a galatic credit would have huge value compared to a local currency and someone would take that risk. Like trying to use USD in Argentina last year, illegal but worth it.
The thing with the Jedi mind trick is that only Jedi’s think it works.
Everyone else just see a scary lightsaber guy asking them to repeat a sentence and are more than happy to comply if it means they get left alone.
There’s a limit to how much you can pretend though.
Letting an old man and a kid drive through a checkpoint? Fine, someone else’s problem.
Selling an obvious narc deathsticks? Yeah, maybe going home and rethinking your life is the right call here.
Handing over all your life savings for a bad deal? Uh, no actually.
“These aren’t the droids you’re looking for.”
“Yeah, sure, whatever you say, man. I just work here.”
“I’m not even supposed to be here today!”
And stormtroopers are supposed to be very disciplined and resistant to bribery.
Resistant to bribery, yes. Not resistant to light sabers.
Look dude I’m just here on bring your clone to work day
Look, they pay them to man the checkpoint. They don’t pay them enough to deeply care about every benign person passing through…
Is it a bad deal though? Are credits worthless to money changers in this context?

That’s not a bad explanation.
