Stories from your local sprint store

[P_M_G]

The few guys I deal with at the local franchise store have always been up to speed and knowledgeable. In fact, most of them are on rooted phones themselves (except that poor bastard with a Photon). I was upgrading the wife/kids phones and was in the process of flashing a new ROM on my EVO, the sales guy looks over and asks what recovery I was using ! They also have a little easier time with discounts and rebates and such - the system didn't want to give me the $50 rebate because I was adding a new line but moving the phone for that line to an existing line - a few clicks and voila - rebate allowed. That's never happened to me at the corporate stores...In fact, I walked into a brand new, completely empty (except for employees) store, wandered over to the EVO LTE and started playing with it, downloading apps, running some benchmarks side by side with my 3D, streamed some tunes and not once in the half hour i was messing with it did anyone even approach me to ask if I had a question or to gauge my interest or whether I wanted to buy one....disappointing really.

I suffer from the same affliction in all sales situations. When I don't want to be bothered because I'm not going to buy anything, I cant get the sales people to leave me alone. But when I do want someone to bother me, because I have a question or want to make a purchase, then no one will help me. Bastages!
