I'm a kind of guy who alway dress down. Whether shopping locally or at oversea boutique. Never been treated badly by salepersonal. Sometime, before we start to blame been ill treat or belittle by them. Best is to reflect on how well we carried ourselve" One can dressup in 3pc suit walk-in high nose. Speaking wif essent machiam ABC " U ask stupid Q > they return stupid ans. Best is done some research b4 attempted on purchase "Simple !!

I think this guy is new and don't what is salesmanship about...
A salesperson should not answer customer's questions with only one word.
This guy got lots to learn to become a GOOD salesperson... a GOOD salesperson can even sell S*IT to his/her customers with his/her sweet talk... in cantonese, "SALES" = "Sell S*IT"...

However, a good sales person should not even judge a customer by his attire or anything else. A sales person is paid a basic wage to just provide customer service. It is natural that someone with casio would not be his preferred choice, however, most often than not when you walk into a local AD, despite it being empty, and even when you approach them , there will be some who will respond with that nonchalant attitude - those are the ones that i am talking about which are totally unacceptable...

If 2 customers come into the shop, one wears a Casio and the other wears a Rolex, who will he/she serve???? If you tell me the one who wears a Casio, that saleperson is not very smart...
Sometimes bad service is not 100% due to salesperson, customers do play a part. If these customers with $$$ in their pocket (not exposed), wanting to buy something, feel like and behave like a KING (btw, ppl can't read your mind)... I don't see what are the reason why these SE should treat every customers like a KING and do whatever they want... yes, customers are always right but ONLY when you take out your cash and BUY something, then you are a CUSTOMER and those SE will treat you like a KING... if not, you're just another see see look look touch here and there...
my 2 cents....

Local retailers had better wise up because in Singapore, due to the weather condition, this is the way of life/attire for us even if we shop in high end malls etc. Dont talk about rolex, drop by PML and C&C and even property launches during the weekend, and you'll get to see people in bermudas and flip flops shopping for their next mercs and beemers and million dollar property...
I agree that providing good customer service differs with individuals, even in the same chain of ADs, you can get extremes customer experience...

IMO, perception of what is rude/polite, etc, also varies from person to person. Each has his/her own level of acceptance of treatment from retailers. I've heard some customers prefer to be left alone to browse around in a shop, while others prefer to be served. So where's the balance? There has to be a reasonable standard of service quality, of course.
So the bottom line is, service, good or bad, varies from person to person and can and will always happen anywhere, not only Singapore, or as a matter of fact, Hobbylink or Sam, but at any other countries/states/cities/towns.
