Priciness Is No Object
(One day, a well-dressed customer walks into my camping store. She asks me for a pair of boots for a well-known hiking area.)
Me: “Well, these boots are light and flexible. They’re made with gore-tex to enable your feet to breathe.”
Customer: “How much do they cost?”
Me: “They are [price].”
Customer: “Do you have anything more expensive?”
Me: *shows her another pair* “Well, these are our most expensive pair at [price].”
Customer: “They’re not expensive enough! My friend’s pair cost MUCH more than that, and I MUST have a pair more expensive than her!” *turns and storms out the door*
