You've never proven this, Phillie. Even though the figures you've=20
cited have been refuted multiple times from BOTH sides of the=20
conversation, you still have yet to show that the handle times are=20
restrictive.

You are the only one that trys to white wash the "handle time" issue.
Even Executive Services admits its an issue.

The only place this has been an issue is in your own posts- further
eveidence that all you do is whine about factless claims.

Your apology will be accepted. Google shows the following by TechGeek
on March 22:
" Sprint shells out a lot of money for these chains to sell their
products. They pay the stores a higher comission than their sales
reps in the Sprint stores, they pay for the space they get in the
stores, they pay for training on Sprint products to these stores,
etc..
Sprint will save a lot of money each year doing this. Will they lose
sales? They'll lose some "

So, let me get this straight- you are willing to take his wird because it
backs you up in this instance, and then accuse him of being wrong every
other time? Does your ass get big splinters from sitting on the fence like
that all the time?

Get this straight SprintPCS is a money losing operation, and cant even afford
anymore to have its reps at BestBuy.

Here we go again- Phil playing both sides of the coin. First, he whines
because they aren't making money, and then he whines because they are
containing costs.
I'm reallyhaving a hard time figuring out who the bigger idiot is- you, or
the Supreme ****up.

Re: Sprint no longer to be sold at Best Buy
Scott does Adelphia let you use foul language like that?
Don't break your arm by patting yourslef on the back for lamely trying to
defend Sprint.
Containing costs by cutting sales never helped anyone.

Why shouldn't they? AOL lets you lie and whine like you do.

What's the matter, Phil- need to use a different name in an attempt to fake
support for your claims?
Show me proof that sales are down. You can't, because once again, you have
posted an unsubstantiated opinion.

okay. I *feel* sorry for you, that you're such a pathetic troll that
you must cut and paste a quote to make it suit your needs effectively
misquoting the OP.
Now, *your* apology will be accepted, my dear troll, for misquoting
TechGeek. What, do you think you're the only person who can do a google
search?
But still, you posted no link, so I will post the link with the WHOLE,
UNBUTCHERED quot for you:

> sales? They'll lose some "
and to complete the butchered quote: "... but since most stores are
within a stone's throw of Circuit City and Best Buy, the sales affect
will be minimal."
Furthermore, the quote is moot, because TechGeek was posting under the
assumption that Best Buy was going to stop selling Sprint PCS phones.
That is not the case.
So how pathetic is that? Not only did you have to use quote someone
who, through no fault of their own, had erroneous information to work
with, but then you had to MISQuote that person to have that unreliable
quote suit your needs. That's pretty bad, dude.
