We get the SAME thing with the Voyager. After a while, the mere mention of the V-Word will make you automatically curl up in the fetal position and cry.
...
How do you think I felt when the IPHONE launched??
...
That makes me want to beat my head on the desk just THINKING about it. ๐ณ
...
I think we've been going about this the wrong way, rather than beating our heads on our desks, why aren't we beating the customers heads on desks?
...
I'm tired of dealing with it, so I just pulled the RUMOR demo out of the case and put up a sign that says we have no more. Of course, it doesn't stop anyone, but at least now they're not surprised when I tell them there's no more. I will watch them look at the sign, and they'll still ask me... "So, you're out?" Duh, didn't you read the f*cking sign?! I've gotten into the habit of just saying "No" as people open their mouths to talk after looking at the sign.
...
I vote we get tazers and use them. That would be MUCH more entertaining!
...
if you find where i could get one, let me know!
[tasers not rumors! ๐ ]
...
yay for tazers!!! ash you're the best...that's why you're the brains of this operation... ;)
...
It sounds like I'm the only dealer left that actually has a Rumor in stock..... ๐
...
๐
Shh...don't tell the public...
...
story of my life lately
We've been out for about the same time as are ALL the store in this area including the authorized retailers and they won't be back in til January, and they're out on sprint.com too.
We are able to special order them but nobody wants to do that ... I guess they'd rather drive all around town to find out everyone is out. ๐
...
Not surprised, it is a very popular phone. ๐
...
i had someone ask if we could sell them the demo rumor.. i was like "wtf, are you serious?" what'd be the point in that? i mean unless your a todler that wants to play with mommies and your just tryin to prevent that, but come in asking for a rumor, we tell you we're out of stock until atleast mid january, and you ask to buy the demo phone? its a plastic toy?!?! get with the program. its not like there's just a sticker on the front to make it look fake but really isn't.. some people, i swear
...
I have 30 of them so if ur in pa let me know.
...
sorry, in CA.. but i will say they hit the customers likes on the nose, the white one for the girlies, and black/blue for the guys... i've not sold one white one to a male.. and vice versa.. strange eh?
...
remember i upgraded the daughter to the white one and the mom got the black/blue...
p.s.(mom doesn't need a f**ing rumor like her daughter) ๐ก
...
I've gotten the mother/daughter combo on a regular basis for the past month for this phone... its insane how many mothers are coming in and getting the same phone as their daughters. most of them dress and like their 15 year old, so i guess it fits.
...
sometimes, i've even seen the daughter dressed more appropraitely than the mother!! what's that about? maybe its menopause.. lol
...
maybe they are f**king retarded...
probably switched clothes...
...
didn't, switch.. probably stole her daughters clothes and all the daughter had left to do was go to good will and get the only nice thing she could find..
...
What store I got a customer in pitsburg looking for a rumor
...
Welcome to my world! ๐คฃ But I have 3 different carriers I have to hear it about.
"Do you have the Rumor?" umm no national backorder
"do you have Boost?" ummm no national back order
"Do you have the W490 in purple?" ummm no national back order!!!!
And I say this at least 50+ times a day EVERYDAY!!!!!!
...
let me go get the 12 gauge ๐
...
did LG make a phone that is excellent?
...
Since the Rumor. The device is wonderful, and it's made me a HELL of a lot of text plan and Power Vision sales ๐
...
too bad the Rumor isnt Power vision...
...
im awesome what can i say.
...
umm...
these people will eventually hate your provider because of this phone.
I see it everyday.
Kiss them goodbye, they are sheep
