This goes out to the "I buy over the net" guys an gals out there.
As a shop employee, I could seriously give a rats ass were you get your parts. Bring them in, I will be happy to install them for the same labor I charge when you buy your parts from me directly. But this is were I get pissed, and this is just wrong to do. If you are going to buy your parts and supplies online, dont come in, waste an hour an a half getting the right pair of shoes, figure the differences between these pedals and those pedals, only to tell the shop employee, " Oh I am not buying them here, I am going to order online cause I can get them for half this price". If you want to do that, Piss off. There is a reason your paying more at the shop, it because I am willing to spend that hour with you to make sure you will enjoy your shoes, and make sure you will be happy with youir pedals. Also, ask me for a price match, but dont expect it. I will price match, but I will NOT pricematch a direct price, My match will be the same as what you woul pay AFTER SHIPPING. You want a minute to ask a quick question..... fine, but dont take up my time for an hour only to leave without spending a dime with me. You want great CS, spend your money with me, you want cheap parts..... Fine, buy online, but stop insulting shops by coming in, trying on shoe after shoe, walking aroun, having them shoe you how to install your cleats, how to use the clipless system only to go somewhere else to buy.
Oh and to top it off, DONT CALL AN HOUR LATER AND ASK FOR THE PART NUMBER FOR THE PEDALS YOU CHECKING OUT BECAUSE YOUR ABOUT TO ORDER THEM FROM JENSONS...........Ass.
Rant over.
