Phone them and tell them that you want to collect at about 15:00.
Add lots of things to the order. Phone at about 15:00 and say you have been stuck in a meeting and will collect about 16:30. Ring them at 16:30 and tell them you are on your way but wont be there till about 17:15. At about 17:15 ring them again saying that you had been chatting with a friend who knows somebody in the business who is happy to supply what you need but their attutude was far more friendly and that you would rather hand over your hard earned to somebody who actually appreciates your business. |

it may be a paint work shop thing!
The only time ive ever been to buy paint that needed mixing the couple that run the place made it seem like I'd really put them out by asking for the stuff. They too were closing within the hour, maybe it takes them an hour or so to clean all the stuff down so anyone coming in, in the last hour who isnt wanting stock stuff really winds them up especally when its dominos night lol. What did you end up doing in the end? |

Sounds like terrible service but I'd still buy it if you have already got them to mix it. Just don't shop there again and make sure they know why.
