Hi Bob,

BV> You wouldn't. Your Yum-Cha mate has had you on ice for ages
BV> now, and he keeps playing you like a fiddle. But you don't
BV> notice.
BL>  He, he, he. I found a surprising thing (to me) the other day. If you
BL> wander in, they give you a lousy price. If you use the telephone they
BL> assume you're ringing around, and give you a good price! ROFL! All you
BL> have to do is sound disappointed and they knock off 10%. If you tell
BL> them you'll be in tomorrow (in the sense of kiss my arse and goodbye)
BL> they give you the *real* price. And then you say "Is that
fitted?" and
BL> they fit them free! Salesmen don't give a stuff about service techs.

Yep. It's the same if you really don't want to buy but are just looking.
They tell you a price. You look horrified and start to leave. Then
they start haggling with themselves as you are walking out the door.

Regards, Brenton
