But would you cut your nose off to spite your face?
If someone pissed me off enough then Yes
I do remember about 10 years ago looking round various electrical shops for a new fridge freezer noting down the different models and prices etc.
Some young sales prick came over and started talking to me, i'd already almost made my mind up which one I wanted but was still thinking a few things over and sort of talking aloud to myself making sense of things.
I commented that "This one is £400" to which he jumped in and pointed out it was only £399.99
I fucking hate that it's a crap sales technique they have all been programmed to repeat
I didn't get offish with him but calmly said well yes you get a penny change from £400 and he immediately jumped in again reinforcing that it wasn't £400 but only £399.99 and as the conversation continued he told me this 4 or 5 times by which point i'd already decided to buy a fridge freezer elsewhere
This was despite on the 3rd occasion me saying "Well you call it £399.99 and i'll call it £400" and he immediately said it was £399.99 what a cunt
A key part of sales is learning to read people and what pushes their buttons then getting them onside not pissing them off.
Also had a run in with another twat about a dish washer when he pointed out a model that used a litre or so less water then the one I was looking at, of course the one he wanted me to buy was a load more money so I just said I wasn't bothered to which he exclaimed "That's not very conscientious is it"
Told that cock that I didn't need a lesson in morals from a salesman and walked
