Tim, I have already said that I was sorry for insulting anyone, even if you are not a potential customer. I am always willing to talk to anyone while helping another customer; I just won't take anything else out of the showcases at the same time.
I was just trying to avoid what happened to me previously. A Net54 customer came to my table at a very busy time; we had traded e-mails first. I was helping someone else and he said he would be back. But since he didn't stick around for 5 more minutes, he kept coming back to find me busy.
Eventually we connected, and he immediately set off my alarms by looking through a pile of 60+ cards that were all $300 to $600 each, and started putting them into 6 different buckets. It freaked me out as they were all in series order already. He was also putting all of the most expensive cards at the bottom of the piles. Now doesn't that set off your alarms? Maybe it was my imagination, but imagine what could have happened if I was helping three people at the same time?
*****For all of those who will certainly get insulted*** This example was a real life example that happened to me and it is not to say that anyone else will do the same thing. It's just what it is, so please do not jump on me for that too.
Ask anyone who has bought from me. No matter whether you ask for it or not, I typically give everyone a 15-20% discount on most sales. Stop by and say hello.
By the way, Sean, thanks for your input above.
Best,
Steve
