I went to GC yesterday, as they had some used Zildjian A Rock hats priced pretty reasonably.

SO, I go in to the drum room, and the stupid sales guy comes over and starts telling me that I don't want those crappy old things; I need these fancy new Paiste's over here...

I'm in here looking at some grungy old $125 hats, and you think that means I'm looking to spend $300+ just to boost your commission?

I don't think so...

The zildjians didn't do it for me, they sounded pretty terrible really; but even if I would've bought ANYTHING, I would have found a different sales guy to get the commission, just because I can't stand pushy sales people!
