Foodad Squashed by Corporate America and elitecarseats.com

Here is the transcript of my chat with Jamie from elitecarseats.com. She won this day but I’LL GET YOU NEXT TIME JAMIE!! YOU HAVE MY WORD!!! muuuahahahaaaaaa

Jamie : Hello and welcome!
I’m a personal shopping assistant and can help answer any questions or issues you have.
How can I assist you?
michael: Michael: Hi
Michael: I am wondering if you have any promotions or price matching policies. Your Gisele is about $20 more than the best price I found.
Michael: I also tried a free shipping code and that did not work
michael: That’s the Graco Snug Ride Gisele
Jamie : Which website are you wanting to price match with?
michael: babyage.com and
michael: albee baby
michael: they both offered the seat for $20.99 less
Jamie : Let me take a look into these sites.
Jamie : One moment please..
michael: i’ll URL you

Jamie : Sounds good…
michael: http://www.babyage.com/products/8f24gis3_graco_graco_snugride_infant_car_seat.htm
michael: http://www.albeebaby.com/graco-snug-ride-infant-car-seat-giselle-8f24gis3.html
Jamie : I’m still checking…..
Jamie : One moment please…
michael: k
Jamie : O.k. after reviewing both of these sites, they both are out of stock of the Giselle. We can not price match if an item is out of stock.
michael: well if they had them, I probably would not be talking to you. How about free shipping?
Jamie : I’m sorry, we currently do not have free shipping at the moment.
michael: My other option is to wait for them to get some. Do you want my business?
michael: Jamie?
Jamie : Of course we want your business. But, unfortunately, we are unable to price match a company without a complete match.
michael: You can get my business now with free shipping.
michael: I will be happy with that.
michael: You had a complete match. Their advertised price is $99.00.
Jamie : I’m sorry, we do not offer free shipping. Their advertised price match is $99.00, but they are out of stock at the moment. Being out of stock does not qualify for a complete match.
michael: bah! you are losing a customer
michael: over $7.99
Jamie : Is there anything else I can be of assistance with today?
michael: let me speak with your supervisor
Jamie : I am a supervisor. Sir, I’m sorry, we do not waive the shipping costs. If you feel like you will have better business with albeebaby and babyage.com, the I would suggest for you to go there. We have it in stock and can ship same day, we do offer other features in a website that other websites can not compare to.
michael: like what? higher prices?
Jamie : We offer same day shipping, return shipping insurance and other items like live chat rooms as well.
michael: you beat me Jamie. You beat the guy with three kids in car seats into submission. I could have bought bottles and clothes with that $27.99
michael: you did a great job protecting the might of corporate America and squashing the little guy.
Jamie : I’m sorry you feel that way sir.
Jamie : We are not in the business of squashing anyone. Have a good day sir.
