A visit to Stephen's Performance

Regarding above comments about "attitude" in the Vendor/Customer relationship, I firmly believe that you DO catch more flies with honey then vinegar and always approach prospective deals with common courtesy BUT:

as a customer I AGREE TO PAY

1) the amount they are demanding
2) by the payment method they prefer or demand
3) according to whatever other terms and conditions they specify
4) in the time frame they require for whatever product/service they are offering.

I'm not there to make friends, I am there to spend money. That is the extent of my obligation.

If some kind of a relationship develops, then that leads to future transactions where I spend even more money. I'll be damned if I am going to turn into some kind of a game show host just to stay on some vendor's good side especially a peddler of junk.
