Word of the Day -- Huckster

This a straight up steal from the word of the day at Merriam-Webster.  I read this today and thought it was just one of those words that I loved...

Huckster -- a person who is aggressive or dishonest in selling.

While I love the word, we here at Troll Lord Games are not hucksters! :-)  Huckster comes from the Dutch noun hokester and verb hoeken, which means "to peddle."
