gypped
Ripped off badly
Gypped means cheated or swindled, usually out of money or fair value: I paid fifty bucks for this thing and it doesn't even work—I got gypped.
The word derives from Gypsy, reflecting old stereotypes about Romani people as thieves and swindlers.
Many consider it a slur for this reason, though speakers often use it without awareness of the connection.
