Message:: [QUOTE="Blasty, post: 8255590, member: 38375"]I don't know how to help with this much other than agreeing that is pretty low, and were I to overhear it I'd probably take my money to another table, too. A potential customer shouldn't be dismissed for any reason. "Can I help you find anything in particular" would be the only question they should be asking. Reminds me of a bit I read in Numismatic News a long time ago - paper magazine days - where a dealer made some crack at a man picking through the 10-cent foreign coin bin for being "cheap." The story ended with a very wealthy man at the same table overhearing this and scooping up his money to take it elsewhere - while loudly announcing why. Some people can't keep their assumptions to themselves. The last gun show I went to, I started browsing a table and the proprietor got it in his head that - without me even saying a word - I would be interested in hearing his spiel about what the "left" thinks about me. "To them, you're just a racist cracker" and all that. Sorry, not appropriate at all, I was just here to look at these holsters. So I went to look elsewhere. So at least there's that. Jackasses who run their mouths end up losing money.[/QUOTE]
