Starvin' for a Sale
----------------------------------------
My husband set up an appointment with Pacesetter (through a
telemarketing call) to discuss our kitchen cabinets. First they tried
to discuss windows - but all of our windows are brand new. They
arrived at our house around 6 PM and left around 9 PM. This was
dificult with 4 1/2 and 1 1/2 year old children running around during
our discussions - they stayed through our dinner (although they had
not eaten themselves and continued to starve until they left), a
children's movie, diaper changes, teeth brushing, playing with our pet
rabbit, changing into pajamas, saying good night to our children, and
even through watching me clean our rabbit's cage! We were very
interested -however unsure of the finance of a job that would cost
about $5,700. We signed cancellation paperwork within the alotted 3
days. I find this web-site to be very insightful and hope that others
beware. The salesperson was so nice and I felt bad for him that we
cancelled after they spent so much time with us. No matter what guilt
may have resulted from these sales tactics, our finances are most
important to our family and we needed to step back without sales
pressure in our home in order to make clear headed decisions. When
they come to your home - everything becomes so personal!
