<p>[QUOTE=&quot;VACookey, post: 1170748, member: 29547&quot;]I know people say &quot;buyer beware&quot; but it&#039;s not that easy for some elderly people. My father is elderly and he doesn&#039;t want to be rude to people so he&#039;ll agree to whatever they ask if they will just leave him alone. Stop calling or let him hang up. I can&#039;t tell you how many times a salesperson would call and my dad would just agree to whatever they were selling and then he&#039;d ask me to please send it back. Finally, I got him a cell phone and he doesn&#039;t get those calls anymore.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Many elderly people don&#039;t know how to deal with aggressive salespeople like that. It&#039;s a shame that this woman didn&#039;t have someone close to her who could watch out for stuff like that. Nowadays, my father gives me every mailer/flyer/advertisement he gets and asks me if it&#039;s a good deal before he buys. 99% of the time I tell him no.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
