The ULTIMATE disrespect!!!

And I didn't say every store, everywhere either, I said THIS ONE. Ok?

So, specifically not having a key chain is the ULTIMATE disrespect? Because they had some key chains for other teams that are losing now, that for all you know they could've been dangling over the counter for years?

I remember a time, when "the customer was always right", now, it's "the owner knows best." The guy was a douche, and didn't even want to discuss it with me, AT ALL. What are you guys not understanding about this? Go back and read the posts again.

.. and I remember a time when the window that now says "Customer Service" said "Returns and Complaints". "The customer is always right" is a motto that Macy's came up with many, many, many years ago.. sort of retail political correctness... but no one is always right. Certainly walking into a store doesn't make you automatically be right on everything.

And I can see why the owner (if he indeed was the owner) didn't want to discuss with you why he didn't have a Saints key chain.

When I saw the title of the thread, I expected something like "someone spat on my face and called my mama names". But to call "the ULTIMATE disrespect" the fact that this particular store in California - which BTW is a few miles away from 2 NFL teams - didn't have a Saints key chain but had Lions and Browns key chains, that is throwing a tantrum.

You know, I think its crap that you can go somewhere and buy Browns stuff and UNSOLD Texans stuff in places you dont even have anything Saints. When are we gonna get respect?

In January.

LYNHAVEN MALL in Va. Beach VA. When he started stocking Saints stuff I made it a point to drop by and buy something from time to time.

I was stationed there at Oceana, then in Norfolk and up near DC in Anacostia. I got around.

Hey, I saw some of those jersey-style beer koozies (you know the ones, that look like a t-shirt to go over bottled beer) at Walgreens in Spring TX and they only had SAINTS and Pittsburgh, didn't even have Texans. WHO DAT?!!

I live in York, PA and last year for Christmas I happened to go into Kohl's looking for something.

As luck would have it, they had a bunch of Steelers stuff andSaints stuff. Nothing else. Weird, but I'll take it. Bought some Saints glasses for the kitchen, out of which I'll be drinking tonight.
