What fur?

Story #1

I have 3 beautiful faux (fake) fur coats right now. They’re visible, but behind the counter so they don’t ‘walk away.’ A couple came in this morning and the guy spotted the coats and spoke with disdain about them, loudly proclaimling,. “I can’t believe anybody would ever wear a fake fur” and then went on and on about how cool real furs were. They had just walked in, so he didn‘t have a clue as to who else may have been in the store (or what they were wearing).

Before they left, he proceeded to ask for a discount on a $10 costume jewelry ring. He didn’t get a discount and didn’t buy the ring. Go figure.

Story #2

Young woman walked into the store about 4:15 this afternoon and started to tell me about the beautiful brand new wedding dress she wanted me to buy or consign. I nicely told her that I don‘t take in wedding dresses. She then looked behind the counter, turned up her nose and said, “But you take furs?” My answer - “Yes, because they sell."

Because she just stood there quizzically looking at me, I said, "Wedding dresses don’t.”

She made a face and left.

Ladies, PLEASE don't buy a wedding dress unless you're sure it's what you want and you understand that 99% of the time, nobody else wants it when you're done with it, whether you've worn it or not. It's the truth.
