bslon... My dealer has
given me some screaming good deals over the past 20 plus years, along
with great customer service. I stop in occasionally as a tire kicker to
see and hear what’s what and he’s happy to accommodate—he knows I’m not
an impulse buyer and there’s a good chance I’ll come back and drop some
dough.
Exactly, and I've had similar experience. As with many businesses, relationships matter. That is sometimes overlooked by those who are only seeking the "lowest price." The irony is that - because of the kind of customer they are - they often don't get the lowest price. Not in the end. |
profYou have a really crappy audition experience at the dealer ... salesman walks over, turns down my music, and starts giving me the hard
sell - "well, what’s it going to be? What is your decision? Are you
walking out with these today?" No more listening, it was just pushy ... Another: ... audio
salesman has accompanied me and proceeds to talk ENDLESSLY about the
speakers and everything else as I’m trying to listen. I can’t
concentrate on a thing. ... The guy left in a huff ... The Boss comes in with a sort of "So you think you can mess
with us?" smirk, pulls up a chair and sits directly behind me, making
occaisional remarks. Clearly a passive agressive ...
So...whadya do? Do you still feel you still "owe" such places your business if you end up wanting the item you heard?
Do you reward crappy salesmen or bad experiences with your business? I don't think I owe anybody my business. Rather, they have to earn it and once they do, I'm a pretty loyal customer. I walk out of stores (audio or otherwise) where I'm not treated well.
