Thanks Lauri, I always appreciate your help.
So I go to Joe, do my deal, explain what's wrong with the badge....he seems to at least listen to what I say.....and I ask him 'What's wrong with John?' He says 'he's having a really bad day'. OK, I think. I'll let the attitude slide.
So as I leave I make sure and say to the dealer John 'Thanks, I appreciate your help in this'. He goes off on me again; 'he's no Soviet expert', 'Joe's the expert', he's been giving me great deals for a year now'.....then he says 'if it was Nazi (what John specializes in) he'd "throw me the f*#@ out the door".
What did I do to deserve that???????
And when do you think I'll be going back there, any time soon? :confused:

He says 'I don't give a f*#@, go see my assistant (Joe (fake names, both)). I'm taken aback put persevere; 'John I'd just like to point out what might be wrong with this, just so you you can be informed.' Again, 'I don't care, go see Joe'. Sheesh....
