This morning my son needed a drawing book and I was in a panic because all nearby shops were closed. I was on my way driving him to school when I noticed a stationery open. I have never bought anything from this shop. I was mixed up whether to buy an A4 or an A3 drawing book, I was going to take both but the shopkeeper told me to take both and that I can pay later when I decide which one I was going to choose. I remained perplexed. He trusted me without knowing me. I could not believe that such nice people still exist.!

Do you trust so easily?

No I don't trust so easily. I would have made you pay for both and told you that you could return the one that wasn't right.

Actually I'd do the same. It's not about trust, I guess. It's about accountability, inventories get checked daily, what happens if my boss finds out there are two drawing pads missing? It's my neck over yours. :)

So, I guess I'd suggest she just call up her son or drive in that store after picking up her son so that her son could choose. It's quite difficult to leave with something then having to return to pay. It's odd and I don't think really that it's about trust.

I'm sad to say, No, not anymore. There was a time when I trusted easily, it was a given. but I was younger and foolish then. I have learned by my mistakes, trust cannot be given, it must be earned.

I think this shop owner is lucky to still be in business. How can they trust someone they don't know. I have to wonder, how many times they have been ripped off. I mean, how many people would make the trip to take one of them back. I don't know that I would, but then if they trusted me enough, I guess I probably would take the other one back and pay for the one I was keeping. I am shocked at this. This would never happen where I live. They would say to pay for both and return the one I didn't neeed and they would pay me back the money I paid for the one I was returning.

So what happened? Did you take both and go back and pay for the one you were keeping? Were you as honest as this shop keeper? I hope so, my friend.

I would have to say, the shop owner must have some good customers. Here they would have said, pay for both and keep your receipt, return the one you don't want and bring your receipt back with you. At least that is the way with the large retailers, maybe an independently owned store would be different, but I doubt it in this economy.

Unfortunately, no. I have been burned too many times. I would have said to pay for both and you can easily return one later.


myLot reputation of 96/100. ronaldinu (9358)   ranked 135 out of 32,957 in life  4 years ago

by the way I went to pay the shopkeeper this afternoon for those of you who are wandering whether I paid the guy or not.


myLot reputation of 92/100. nanajanet (2933)   ranked 1,440 out of 32,957 in life  4 years ago

LOL, it never dawned on me to think that you would not pay him. I can tell, by your posts, how honest you are.

I wish it were that easy for me. I have been burnt enough times that I am not quick to trust people anymore. I use to be very gullible and would take people at their word, but some hard lessons have taught me that you have to be careful about who you put your trust in. Be Blessed!

Hi ronald, You must have an honest face, some people seem to be able to tell these things. I'm afraid that I don't always trust people that I do not know, as there is many who will take advantage, but sometimes I just get a good feeling about someone. Blessings.
