i am no salesman... But dont' we all judge people by their outlook? At least the first impression...
I have heard many stories about how one dress down to look at fancy car and when doesnt get the attention they go away complaining blah blah.......the classic story is the ah pek riding bicycle to buy mercs in cash....to me, these are attention seeker. I am sure they go around telling people how people look down on them and then how they get back at them by buying from someone else blah blah blah
if you want want respect.... Earn it!!!!!! How? For a start, dress approriately (note: Got nothing to do with expensive)
me? I dress down to look at cars because i dont want to be attended when i am not ready. Then if i am interested i will go up and ask for information. Nothing wrong with that. In fact, too often the salesman will entertaing me even when i dress down (slipper and shorts). This make me uncomfortable.
