Angry Local Model Shop

i popped in to my local model shop and found that all the stuff looked like it had just been thrown about all over the shop so i ignored this and went to the checkout then i asked him if he had a certain model in stock and very rudely he said it will take to long to get it from one of there shops further up englan i said ok i continues browsing and then he said we got this 2WD truggy and i clearly stated i wanted a 4WD buggy and then he said it is like a 4WD buggy so i said no it is not and this 2WD truggy thing is rubish so then he went bright red and kicked me out of his shop
people please be warned model shops aint all there cracked up to be because i certainly know that i wont be using his shop again and a he lost himself a customer and money

What happened to you must have been really traumatic seeing as you have completely lost all sense of punctuating sentences and using capitals!

Because reading it makes you sound like a hyperventilating mad-man.

Seriously, what shop was it? You didn't mention the name or location.

Woo hoo, I guessed it, do I win a prize?

There are a couple of helpful guys in there & they have offered to get stuff in for me in the past, but I've normally needed things in a hurry.

IMO they suffer from the problem of having to try and please everyone with their stock as they do everything from Trains, model cars, airfix, planes and proper model making/arty stuff as well as RC cars.

What car had you decided on Welsh Man??

Yep, antics staff don't really seem to know one end of a car from another. I was watching a guy run through a touring car for a client.
He was trying to show how much steering throw there was and couldn't work out why the wheels were fixed. I just said "usually it's the front end that has the steering"

Ooooooh, who do we reckon it is then? If it's who I think it is then I'm not surprised you got that response.

model shop staff, they get up to some crazy Antics don't they?

If it's who I think they it is, then they don't seem to be geared up for racers and deal more with nitro than electric.
