The better one would be: Someone is giving out pralines which are very expensive to all his coworkers to thank them for their support. He goes around the room and gives everyone one. When he comes to me, he says: "Oh, I saw you buying one of these pralines for yourself yesterday, so instead of giving you one of mine like everyone else, I'm giving you a thank you sticker I printed out myselft this morning". I say: "Even though I bought one myself, I still prefer it if I got one of those pralines. They are really tasty, and everyone else gets one, so I'd like one too." and then the other person says: "No! Don't complain about the sticker! You don't get a praline like everyone else and you should be happy about it!". On top of that, all other people who get a  praline are looking at you like you are ungrateful for that stupid sticker, while they are enjoying their deluxe praline. Yeah...

I didn't add the condition "I have the praline". The guy who gave the pralines for free actually sold them the day before and is now telling me I can't have a free one because I should be punished for being a sucker and buying from him when he was going to give them out eventually anyway.    And of course it's his choice that he doesn't want to give it to me but that doesn't make it the right choice and that's what people are saying anyway. That it's a bad choice and that it's unfair. So I don't see why it's such a big deal to say their choice is unfair and suddenly you are ungrateful for saying it. It's objectively unfair, no amount of mental gymnastics will make it fair and at this point I'm only saying it's unfair because they are not willing to admit it and they are trying to deflect the conversation by shielding behind the argument that "people are ungrateful and rude" even though the posters here just calmly stated why this is a bad practice and no one acted rude in any way.
