So normally I'm pretty good at judging a person's character. I must say tonight was difficult though. I was cutting it close this week but finally made a sale to a women who claimed that her son's hockey equipment had all been stolen so she needed to replace it on the cheap. Her emails were friendly and she seemed so genuine on the phone as well. However, when we met in person I didn't get the same vibe. She was a little abrupt, a bit cold, in a hurry.
You see, I was trying to figure out if I should cut her a really great deal or not as we hadn't previously agreed on a price. I was thinking of selling her everything for only a dollar if she really needed the break but I was confused over the matter so I just settled on $20. That was a great deal anyway so she got the benefit of the doubt and I really shouldn't judge or assume anyway. You know what they say about the word assume...it makes an ASS out of U and ME.
Attached is a picture of the lot she bought minus the pants. Apparently they were missing a strap or something like that. What do I know about hockey pants?!
SALE: $20
