jemanden über den Tisch ziehen --> jemanden hereinlegen (auf Geld bezogen), jemandem etwas zu teuer verkaufen, jemandem Schund/wertloses Zeug andrehen (etwas andrehen = überreden, einem etwas abzukaufen)
unter den Blinden ist der Einäugige König --> das benutzt man, wenn jemand nur deswegen der Beste in etwas ist, weil alle anderen noch schlechter sind (und nicht, weil derjenige gut ist)
ein dickes Fell haben --> nichts an sich heranlassen, nicht sensibel sein, wenn einem Beleidigungen, etc. nichts ausmachen
