it all depends on how you do it man. if you apologize and have a good excuse i can't see it being too bad for you. if you just say "i got a better offer, i'm not working for you guyz anymore" i can't see that leading to anything good

don't tell them the REAL reason obviously (if it's something like "more money")

just tell them that you share the values of the firm. they'd do anything to benefit the firm, save a buck or make a buck. and you think it is wise to have the same mentality for yourself. someone has to look out for you. it sure as hell won't be them

If the job is in a different city, claim your sick brother/sister needs your care and you have to leave.

Thank them for the offer, but let them know you have decided to pursue other opportunities.

Keep it short and professional. You owe them nothing.
