5 Types that makes shop owners really grouchy.

Time-wasters Type 1
What they like to say: Please-let-me-reserve, please please please...
After asking a few questions to show interest, they like to ask to reserve and when I insist that I don't do reserving, they say they will get back and beg to reserve. So when they didn't get back to me I had to go ask them if they are still interested. When I ask, they will always have a ready excuse and then have to cheek to ask me to sell to others first.. -.-

Time-wasters Type 2
What they like to say: Please-let-me-reserve, please please please... *disappeared*
Similar to type 1 time-wasters, except they like to go MIA.

Time-wasters Type 3
What they like to say: May I know this this this, and that that that and this and that... *disappeared*
First say they are interested in the item and then ask so many questions that you can almost write a book out of the answers and then they go MIA suddenly.

Time-wasters Type 4
What they like to say: May I know this this this, and that that that... And price cannot lower? Can lower ma? Really can't lower ah? *disappeared*
Very similar to Type 3 except, they like to push your price to the lowest that you can go. After you give them your best price, they go MIA.

Time-wasters Type 5
What they like to say: Can you help me order this? *disappeared*
They ask for a Out of Stock item, then they go MIA when it is time for payment or if they make you pay for them first they MIA when the goods reach. This is the most irritating out of the lot. Sometimes you help them out of goodwill, sometimes even not earning from them, they just decide to disappear, making you feel really frustrated.


These are the 5 types of people I "meet" at least 2-3 a week.
Yes, I get one of these almost every other day but I've never posted their details up to blacklist them because I want shopping to be a pleasant experience and not a stressful one. I really do not hope to meet another one of these. I'm sure most shop owners do not wish to meet them too.


I guess most of these people are really lonely people who doesn't have many friends to talk to, so they like to make their life more interesting by making fun of shop owners.
