I was in a jewellers in LC today & asked that very question for a watch I've been looking at, but the shop refused point blank to even try to compete. He knows full well I can order online & thanks to Fedex have the watch in 24hrs. I just cannot understand the mentality to lose a sale  |
apart from the overheads that they have,think of the benefits you get with a shop.,i much prefer the personal service.I bought an iron 22nd august on the net and I am still waiting for it.I wished I had paid the extra and now I would have a smooth ironed shirt.
