Sorry sir we only have 1 size 8 and have not re stocked them on ages. FFS second shop. Do you do the tiger ........... The what??? is the shop assistants reply Manager comes over and they don't have them or know what i'm on about Last shop. Well known large retailer of shoes/trainers Asked if they have them.

Waste of a few hours. well no managed to get a few car and bike mags ------------ Home online bought the colour and size I wanted in 10 mins.

And the answer to your question is ..The Internet ...High rates for poor shop owners...Over zealous and over the top parking restrictions , driving the shoppers away. You are not on your own regarding comments on either stock or staff product knowlage you only have to go into Currys to spend a Grand on a computer its like the parting of the waves as Salesman flee into the back to avoid even giving basic assistance .
