What's Bugging You Today? Volume 3, Part 1

[GohanX]

Only stupid motherfuckers haggle in a retail store.

[Some Stupid Japanese Name]

It just adds a layer of bullshit.
I dont want to live in a world where a seller has to jack his price up 25% so that some rube can feel good about himself when he talks the seller down 15%. Yet here I am.

[bbobb]

I'll haggle in the local store owned by a guy I know but I'm not going to just walk into a random store and haggle.

And the only reason I will haggle is because I'm a good customer he knows that spends decent amounts of money

[Some Stupid Japanese Name]

If thats the case, then there should be no need for haggling.
I have customers who come in and get a discount because they have shown loyalty or whatever, but none of them would ever ask for it. Theyre gentlemen. I will never give a discount to someone who asks for it. Fuck them. In fact, after refusing to give a discount to one person who asks for it, i will usually give one to the next person in line to show its not about the money. It is about manners and respect.

[Satsuki]

Please tell me you included the Batman part.

I absolutely did. I rarely respond to outrageous messages without being funny or rude back. I hope to give them a story to tell to their children about the time they tried to talk an online shop owner down and the shop owner told them batman took all the competition.

[Brisco Bold]

I will never give a discount to someone who asks for it.

Every discount I've ever received has never come from asking for it. Oh, you bought a shit ton of stuff from us? You're here all the time? 10% off. Here's a free thingie.

I know I could never give a discount when I worked at EB, but I despised when people asked and got upset when I wouldn't. Fuck you. I don't know you. Why would I do that?

What if someone comes in and just asks "If I buy a system and 10 games, is there any kind of deal we could do?"

[Some Stupid Japanese Name]

Fuck you. No.
I dont go to the cashier at target and say "hey, if i buy that ps3 and ten games is there any kind of deal we could work out?"
There is a very high probability that if someone came in and bought a system and ten (used) games, one of those games might end up in the bag without being rung in. But not if they ask for it and not if it is all new stuff. The markup on new stuff is pathetic, as i have stated many times. You could walk in and buy a $250 new ps3 and three $60 games. Of that $430 pre tax sale, we would make about $23.

[kedawa]

I would gladly pay you Tuesday for a PS3 today.

[Some Stupid Japanese Name]

I know youre cool, i wouldnt even sweat it.
