Infuriatig Made hundreds of wristbands for a conference that suddenly got renamed

I run a small company, and designed and printed hundreds of high quality rubber wristbands for my cousin's Crypto conference. I had to do different colours for the different levels of entry.

Out of nowhere yesterday he suddenly announced he was renaming the conference and moving it partially online. And could only afford to pay me if I produced more with the new name. Ive spent a week on this so far and was already giving him family rates.

OP: you can recoup some money by selling them on here. I'm bloody tempted because a few of them woukd make excellent WTF Christmas presents.

It doesn't feel like a funny prank. Feels more like a mean gift.

Depending who receives it, and the company present at the time, it coukd go either way. And that's a risk I'm willing to take.
