Hey Fellas: A while ago this guy kept calling me to buy windows, even though I live in an aprtment and do not own a home

HERE IS THE FINAL SHOWDOWN:

TM= Telemarketer

PHONE RINGS, I pick it up

TM: Hi I am from so and so and would like to tell you about our energy saving windows

Muddy: OK, make your pitch

He starts to go on and on, about triple paned,Argon Gas, no leak windows for a good 20 minutes. I was asking him some pretty mooky questions and he is answering like I am really interested

Muddy: I want to order 11 windows, including that picture window with the electric shutters

THIS MOOK IS DROOLING BY NOW

So I start giving him measurements and I question him about one way veiw windows, you know he's spending this commission in his head

TM: At this time with an order so complex, I am going to have to send a salesman to your house, to double check on measurements, show you materials and set up an istallation date. I will need a 1000 deposit. Would you like to put that on a credit card?

Muddy: I do not have a credit card

TM; Well we can finance this against the value of your home

Muddy: I don't own this house

TM How are you intending on paying for this order?

Muddy; I hav no intention of paying for it

TM Than why did you waste an hour of my time, making an order you can not pay fir

Muddy: The real question is why did you call me to order windows, when I am not the homeowner and can't pay for you product?

lol nice. I like to talk to them in the voice of Neal Goldmans dad off of family guy. Theres usually alot of vulgarity that i cant list here, but it usually pertains to some sort of bile movement i had that day. Leave no description out. (I.E. Color, texture, amount.) But Bravo on hooking him for that long, i bet he was salivating over the sale.

Dominick, that's great, Dude!!  These people have no qualms about wasting our time, but God forbid, we waste theirs.  That's classic.

Too cool!

A warning to others:  NEVER give your credit card number or social security number to ANYONE over the phone unless you initiated the call and know exactly who you are dealing with.

;D ;D ;D

 Have you ever thought about signing up for the do not call list?

 I had someone call me the other day at dinner time no less. They had some bogus opening line. I said " hey I'm on the do not call list you can't call me". They said oh no we are not selling anything. I said "ok then we've got nothing to talk about" click.......

Terrific conversation Muddy. I usually don't get that involved with them. When they ask for me I tell them I'm not here or I say just a minute and put the phone down and go about my business.  After a couple of minutes, they're gone.  Have you ever heard of the conversation where the homeowner made the telemarketer believe he had just called a number at which location there had been a murder? The homeowner pretended to be a police detective and began to grill an increasingly nervous telemarketer about how well he had known the victim, what was his reason for calling at this time, etc.  Absolutely priceless.  Someday I'm going to try it.

I found a link to it.  I didn't realize it was Tom Mabe referred to in a previous post.  Still funny!

That's great!!

Next time that happens, go to this website.  They have soundboards that you can use to pick on telemarketers.

I like the Judge Judy one the best.  All her comments are clear and free of whitenoise, and backround noise.

You have to learn the layout of the buttons so you can get good responses and don't clue them into the fact your messing with them.

This is a youtube vid using the same soundboard.  The caller is a bill collector and stays on the line for over 10 minutes!!!  I think it is hilarious.

Has anyone else recieve 314 "2nd" notices that the factory warrany on their vehicle is about to expire.  I especially appreciate the fact they take special concern to only bother me on my cellphone.

I get those stupid things in the mail all the time for a truck I sold a year and a half ago!
