i am sorry i dont see the point of this thread. Most users today do their research on the internet and immediately buy from online seller to get cheaper than retail price and happy with it.
You should learn to do that as well. Shop seller responsible are to sell the phone not otherwise =)
Not everyone does that. If so, there will be more online selling sites for HP, than actual HP shops right?
Fact is, people still have more trust in a shop and talking with a sales person that you can actually see his face, rather than buying online. Thats why HP shops flourish like mushrooms.

Because this story is actually way longer than this..I was in a rush that day and was in a pick, test and pay mood that day..You know, the days when you already have locked your mind, have enough cash and just dont want to make your stay long..If it was my strolling day at LowYat, I would definitely have a detailed talk with him, digging into technical parts and what not and wouldnt buy the set from him too..Also, I mentioned that I am a man of peace and I really didnt want to degrade him in front of his collegues and boss..that would be very messy..Least, I hope he ia reading this and learns his lesson

I totally understand you mate. I've been a sales person too. I've promoted aeveral products in my time. Among them was streamyx. While we had rivals, we were taught not to bash them and politely ask the client to find answers.
I wouldnt mind that guy bashing Desire if he was selling it too. Coz then I would understand that his intention is not sales..

Haha even in this case my friend, he might still be bashing for sales or commision. Sometimes, different companies/brands have different commision margins for their products. Say for example, if they sell both SGS and HTC Desire, but the sale of 1 SGS gives more commision than the Desire, then the salesman would definately prefer to push the sales of the SGS right?
Its very hard to find an honest sales person. Thats not to say that there isnt any around, but in your shoes as a buyer, its hard to trust 100% the opinions of a sales person. Still the best to do research by yourself right
