            --------------------------I feel for you buddy and although I've never done this in the flower industry, I think I'm guilty in other venues. I can't put a finger on them at the moment. What I do know is I've been in situations where I've tried to barter a lower price knowing I could get something cheaper at a "conglomerate". I usually stay with the specialist and buy from them however because I know it's "usually" a better product. What surprises me is the number of indignant salespeople who get pissed off and act like assholes because I'm trying to barter. They never get my business. I'm a different egg though. I'm all for paying the least amount for a product but I'm also for for supporting local business and the small business man. I'll pay more money if you treat me right and I'll be loyal. I also believe that loyalty is going by the wayside. Business' use to get much of their return business on loyalty and little benefits. That doesn't mean shit anymore. Where ever it's cheaper is the thing. I remember when I was a kid and I needed a pin for my watch band. I went into a jeweler and he fixed it. I asked him how much he wanted and he said nothing. I would have always gone back there, despite what transpired thereafter, and I did. That impressed me. I think much of that is lost on today's society. Maybe I'm wrong Malto????

            This made me think of a couple I had yesterday.
            measure it all out 885 sq ft X $.20 = $177 + $20 trip charge whre they were at total $197.
            " Oh no that's way to much this ad says he can do it for $89"
            Me "can I see that ad"
            "says here up to 400 sq ft $89. Well your a bit bigger then 400 sq ft. Say for the sake of arguement he charges the same for the 1st 400 as the 2nd 400 $89 Divide by 400 = .225 per sq ft times 885 sq ft = $199. I quoted you $197 Hey look I'm $2.00 less" LOL
            I'm not to blame.

            I voted for the other guy!

              You should tell them that there's a $10 bartering charge.

                I keep pretty close tabs on my competition. I'm not the cheapest but I'm not the highest either and the one guy that lowballs does crap work!
                The thing about price shopping sometimes you get exactly what you pay for ;)

                • Items that come with services are a little different King. I'll pay more for quality work. I've got a $5,500.00 brick patiothat is sinking toward the edges because the guy who did it(someone the ex hired) didn't pack down the sand enough and now it's settling.

                            • Like many of you Millen squashed all joy of football from me. I've still got the 'sports gene', though, and finally found a replacement for football during the Olympics. That would be womens volleyball and my adopted team is:



                              3-0 baby, and contenders for a championship. 4-0 tomorrow will make my day again.

                              <---- Go Milena, go!

                              Yeah, yeah, Millen drove me insane - just wait until I sponsor that team and my company's logo is on their jerseys ;)
