Nothing “Left” To Spend

Me: “How much are you looking to spend?”

Customer: “Around £1050.”

Me: “Well, the world’s your oyster, then.”

Customer: “I know.” *acting if he was a baron or something*

(I start showing him the products in his stated price range, and we find a good model which suits him.)

Customer: “Oh, don’t have them in left-hand, do you?”

(It is obvious he is saying this as a way to get out of the sale, as he thinks we don’t have any left-hand models.)

Manager: “Yes, we do.” *gets one straight out of the box*

Customer: “Oh, okay. But I really wanted one in camouflage.”

Manager: *gets a camouflage, left-hand model from another box* “Must have got another shipment in.”

Customer: “Yeah, um… Yeah. Well, now that I think about it, I actually shouldn’t go over £950.”

Manager: “I can do this for £935.”

Customer: “Oh! Um, yeah, okay, well…” *thinking of a way out of this situation he got himself into* “I’ll come back tomorrow.”

(That was the last we saw of him.)
