On Wednesday evening, my wife was invited to accompany her close friend to a watch outlet on UOB theme’s opening at the Pavilion.
Knowing me as watch nuts, she asked to drop her at the venue and of course accompanied her as well since we car pooled these days. I, of course jumped at the chance….
As usual, the atmosphere was jovial and before we know it, we were enjoying ourselves at the cocktail…
And then…(we) its time to check out some models…..
As we know, the scenario is usually packed and to our dismay, two glass counters were already occupied by (each) two separate potential customers and with the displaying watches and wooden tray laid which covered almost all on the glass counter shelves.
These two potential clients were haggling the night away (a full ½ hour and my time spent there) with the un-thoughtfulness of the SA’s who attended to them.
This scenario deprived of other would be clients a chance to get close-up for their viewing pleasure…with view to purchase, if any…
My 2 cts tells me…that the SA should invite or directed the haggling customer (with the short-listed watches) to the sofas nearby for a kill…leaving the counter free to other invited guests.
Too bad, they really lost some potential clients that evening…
