After spending over $7000 is it unreasonable to ask for a free reserve pack?
Rick replied to Nerra's topic in The Bonfire
+1 OK poster comes on to vent about a perceived bad customer service situation and gets accused of 1) flaunting his financial situation 2) trying to rip off a starving rigger 3) harassing the poor salesperson after just having lost her father did I miss anything? I did not say he harassed a poor bereaved salesperson - I am merely saying that 1 - the OP has no idea about *why* the salesperson apparently overreacted 2 - without either the salesperson or the store's point of view, we have no way of knowing how much we can trust the OP's description and/or perception of events This is not an attack - it's merely pointing out that we have an incomplete picture. the OP came here with one question was his request to have his repack covered reasonable? then he got accused of trying to rip off a rigger and showing off how much "discretionary" cash he has I just think the posters responding got carried away inventing scenarios that make the OP look bad. I for one do not think the request was unreasonable. I often get after the deal requests for a little love to be shown back to the customer. Some times I give it some times I don't. But I would never disrespect the customer for asking. It matters little if the salesperson is having a bad day or week or whatever. NEVER disrespect the customer unless you are prepared to lose them.

The simple answer is yes. USPA reports approximately 36,000 licensed skydivers in the United States. Based upon a total population of 316,000,000, we are about 0.1% or one person in every 10,000 is a licensed skydiver. We are a small sport witha small population thus the industry is compared to other industries, small. But for a small sport/industry, we require equipment, talent and skills that are first rate, safe and the expectations for each piece of equipment to function as it was made to do first time, everytime is high. Given the mix of all the fixed costs a skydiving equipment vendor must meet even before a profit is made, I will in this case, side with the business. all the more reason to maintain your customer base by giving good customer service You can't be drunk all day if you don't start early! -

the only fun part of the ordeal honestly I had the same experience as John Mitchell- getting cleaned out was not fun (but probably healthy) but once the anesthesia hit I remember nothing until I woke up in the recovery room (tooting) You can't be drunk all day if you don't start early!

agree with this Also seems to me that most of the posters were slamming the OP for trying to rape some poor rigger. He has spent half of his posts 'splaining he expected the company to pick up the riggers tab. I don't see that as an unreasonable request. I would not have come on here bitching about it but not an unreasonable request all the same You can't be drunk all day if you don't start early! -
