Reply To: Not talking to a merchant if you’re not planning on buying anything

Nechomah: Thank you 🙂

So, I was a bit more specific when I told him that I had to be somewhere. When I first came in, after telling him that I was not interested in buying anything and was just there to look and that was it, I told him that I had a “class” to go to soon, so I only had like less than five minutes.

Later, his personal questions were still sales-interested, in my humble opinion. As I was rushing from the back to the front of the store, he told me to come back when I had more time. I think I said, “Okay thank you. Bye.”

Then he asked me where my class was located. I told him the name of the city, thinking that he would realize that I was in a super rush and leave me alone, since it was about an hour away.

“Do you live there too?” was his response.

For the record, I do not live in that city, or near the mattress store either. I just happened to be in the area for an appointment.

Anyway, I didn’t respond or give him more answers. Just “bye thank you!”

Luckily the store was relatively small! 🙂
