[QUOTE="Kyle Weiss, post: 227169, member: 1969"] If they have the goods and things I (we) want at fair prices, was it the sales guy or the fact they had what we wanted? If it worked so well, why am I hesitant to return? :scratch: 70% of all sales are people that have already made up their minds before they walked in the door. Sales people are there to bulk up that 70% decision into profit and extras, and sway the other 30% if possible--and get them to return for more. That's sales 101. I was shown at least 50 pipes and walked out with only tobacco (my intended purchase). To be honest, if they we're cool, I probably would have bought that Pete 80S just on principle of supporting a B&M. Not all creatures walk when put on a leash. A sit on a Birmingham porch or by a pond is much more my style. Especially if there's ceiling fans on the porch, and it's screened in...ah! I miss the South. 8) 8) [/QUOTE]
