Wish you luck!


I couldn't believe myself either.
On October 28, I called that AD and asked the two DJs prices . He said cannot give me the price over the phone. I then offered him to call me back for confirming that I am a real buyer. He hung up and called right back. I was a bit of shock that his prices are low comparing with others.

Two days later, I called to purchase 2.
On Nov 21, we stopped by his store to say hi and looking for one for our daughter, and mentioned about the Daytona. He indicated that the Daytona is too hard to get, and we do not sell to anyone just walking. But you are a good customer, my boss agreed to sell you as soon as we get one in. And it should be here around April next year.

even on the phone this afternoon, I asked Are you sure no discount on this? He said I can't. The Daytona is very hard to get. I just acted like kind of dump about it and said to him OK

Wow wow...I can have it by tomorrow. hopefully before 10 am as usual

By the way, what are you waiting for? A Daytona?

yes, I do have a young sister. She is 33. No boyfriend in her life yet, and still looking for one.

She's very smart, and has Master degree, but very shy.
