How's it going fellas,
The wife and I went to the mall after I dragged her around a couple antique shops looking for some good razors (no luck). We passed by the Art of Shaving store and I noticed the salesman was kind of working a customer who was obviously interested in DE shaving but hadn't done much research.
I watched this for a little bit and while normally I don't do much talking with strangers (result of growing up near East LA), I just had to step in once the salesman stepped away. I told him the Muhle R89 he was looking at was a fair price but to not buy the blades in-store. I told him to check out WCS and Amazon for much better prices and samplers.
This was a quick exchange and I tried to be quiet so the employee wouldn't hear. Still felt bad - as if I hijacked the sale. In the end, I think the customer bought the razor.. my wife made me leave before I did any more damage.
You guys think I was too far in the wrong for doing that? I just didn't want someone to get taken-advantage of..
