Everytime i went, queued up, said what i needed and what i offered the friend behind the counter, after being consulted said 'nah dere lyk teh crap ' and a side order of instant kick from the owner to add insult to injury

Bottom line is that the majority of furni shops are daylight robbery and to top it all run by arrogant ******s

I must admit that does wazz me off once the owner actually said yes to my offer which was 5 tub masters and her mate said " ew tubs are ming" and the owner said " actually i changed my mind" even though i gave her 1.5 profit

Im not sure what shops brought this on but theres one particular shop owner who goes by the name of .:feliz:.
If theres going to be a prize for the biggest profit ***** of the game it has to be him
Im sure hes a nice guy but the way he runs his shop is appaling, i had to pay 3 rollers just for 1 bw skyline poster :rolleyes:
Since that day i have always made sure to be reasonable with people offering profit as any profit is good profit and profit is a privilege not a right
As long as they are polite to me and are not arrogant i return the favour with a smile and add a youre welcome on the end



For every bw skyline poster in UrbanSuburbia i had to pay twice as much as they are rather rare among shops, since then i have learnt to use my contact list as well as HxF's norm trading section to my advantage



That is possibly the second most irritating thing in a shop, would you go to M&S, queue up with your items, offer them your hard earned cash only for the snobby ho behind the counter to say 'sorry, we dont need that' :rolleyes:
The most irritating thing is when they have friends behind the counter whispering to them and consulting them on whether they should take your offer or not
I remember a few weeks ago, in several shops i went to while selling a Holiday Romance for 4 pure and offering 0.5 profit as at the time the value was 4.5

Oh yes, and like you say about the friend consulting and influancing the owners decision, they should make there own decisions because at the end of the day some of us have our own values, and differant opinions on what rares look good and what rares we should buy.

ARGHH!!! I was just in a shop, trading for 2 mode armchair - 6 credits, i offered 2 mode bars and he was like "OH AH NEED PROFFIT". It's ridiculous! How can you have profit on 6 credits worth of furni!!!
Fair enough if its rares dealing in thrones, but how anyone can be so petit to want profit on 6 credits is beyond me!!!

Its always the same nooby people that have the black baggy trousers, red hc jacket thing, flat hat and trainers, like dodgy looking casino owners :S
Grrr it gets right on my unsuitable words!
