      The real tragedy here is that this lady is allowed to have and raise children, which will turn out just as stupid as she is.
      Excuse me, good sir paladin, can you direct me to your EVIL district?

        Wow I am truly saddened by some of the responses I am reading on this thread.

        I have to ask . . .did you or the clerk write it out like was suggested above?


        product 1099 vs 1199
        acces 100 100
        warty 100 100
        total 1299 vs 1399

        and 5 years at 100
        2 years at 50
        2 year at 69 which option would you like?

        I know that some people have to see the numbers written out. Just tossing them out in the air doesn't work.

        I know it can take a little extra work on your part to write it out - however wouldn't you feel better in the end if the customer left realizing they got a great deal vs thinking you had ripped them off?

          I even quote their exact words back to them and they still deny that they said it... and this is via email which also has their original message below as well.
          OMG!! That's pretty bad and sucky to boot!!!
          It's been a long, long, long, long time...

            Why not just let her return everything and get a $1299 refund? Then she can restart at the beginning, get a less accomodating salesperson than before, and pay the current price of $1399.

              The concern I would have there is the customer would decide to feel insulted. Like I'm having to sit them down and go extra slow like they're in the remedial reading class or something.

              I think the OP explained it well enough. Something tells me that customer decided she was ripped off before she entered the store and nothing would have changed her mind.

                Apparently in some people's minds basic math is such a vile thing cause it would blow their silly logic out of the water.

                  GOODNESS gracious ... how does this woman even manage to survive day to day? How the hell can she even drive a car? Pay her bills? Turn on her own shower?

                  Someone that incredibly stupid needs a caregiver.
                  Better yet, they're a prime candidate for involuntary euthanasia. Someone that stupid is polluting the gene pool with their idiocy, so it's for the good of the species if they are removed from it.

                    She doesn't sound stupid. She just sounds like she was trying to make you slip up and give her some money. Pretty straight forward to me, IMO.

                      it's a miracle she gets out the front door without serious injury.

                        i think chainedbarita proves jbball's point... she had to be scamming because if she really was that stupid she wouldn't have made it out the door without injury.

                        oh and kudos to the fellow mac users on this thread. I'm a recent convert, but I do so love my macbook with leopard.
