goldendesign Posted August 2, 2014 Share #1 Posted August 2, 2014 In my store I sell a variety watches, clocks, jewelry, gifts, etc. . . I have a bunch of clocks on the wall as display. Today this couple was looking at clocks on the wall while I had a HUGE line of people for services. They waited patiently in line and then pointed to a clock and said "We'll take it" It was my store clock. A clock I purchased soley just to show the time in the store. I never really intended to sell it. Heck I bought it from Target on sale. Most of the ones I sell are of much nicer, name brand, variety. I looked them straight in the eye and said "Sure, that'll be $60" They bought and walked away. I have been feeling slightly guilty but still thought it was perfect. I keep telling the sales staff, everything is for sale. Now they believe it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thaddeus Kosciuszko Posted August 3, 2014 Share #5 Posted August 3, 2014 It would seem that clock's time had come. They made you an offer for to buy merchandize, and you accepted. I don't think you had any legal or moral obligation to say you bought that clock on sale at Target or to tell them what you paid for it any more than any other piece of merchandize in your store. I'd say nobody got swindled, and you made some profit for your business. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Destination Posted August 3, 2014 Share #6 Posted August 3, 2014 Everything is for sale, including *your soul*. What's today's price for a soul? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goldendesign Posted August 3, 2014 Author Share #7 Posted August 3, 2014 Everything is for sale, including *your soul*. That flimsy thing was auctioned off when I went into retail. I think it might have been included in my last mall lease agreement. Thank you TK. I agree wholeheartedly. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
