” Absolutely! Let me call the manufacturer…”
I go to my front phone, so they can hear me make “the call”..
Not going to an open line, I pickup the receiver and “call”. “ Hi XYZ frame maker people! I’d like to order a Dale Evans 666 in color putrid green…”
In a loud voice I say, “Backordered?!” “How long?? Forever?? Well, thank you anyway”…
….”Sorry Mrs Pickeybritches,,,I tried..”
I NEVER fell into that trap. Have a diverse inventory. You’re customers should be able to find what they like if you select right.
