	Newton & List

	That's what research and product comparison eliminate. There is
nothing stopping you from leaving an agressive sales pitch saying
"I'm going to get a second opinion".
	I work days for a retailer and find that most of the sales are
concluded to people who have done their homework. The dealership is
not the cheapest in town (read: pianos are tuned, regulated & voiced)
but often people return from shopping around and say "let me see that
piano again". I have learned some valuable sales techniques and
customer relations skills from the sales staff, and utilize them in
my private work.
	To end, I find that knowlegable salespeople exist, and the cheats
and liars are soon found out with a little legwork.

Happy Post-St. Patrick's Day,
