Funniest Store Salesman Comment Ever - Why the Dinc is delayed

[kenn]

I went into a Verizon store today to play with a Droid X thinking I might trade up my Dinc for the X (more on that elsewhere). I asked the sales rep if they had a working X on the floor and he said, "No.", they had not put one out and sold all 20 they got on launch day with a line at the door.

I said I was considering the X over the Dinc (didn't tell him my Dinc was in my pocket) and he said:

"Oh, yeah, we can't get any incredibles because there is a problem with samsung screens -- they keep falling off of the phones".

I said, "Pardon me?" as I was sure I mis-heard him. He reiterated that the screens are FALLING OFF OF THE PHONES. I just said "wow" left...

Absolute moron...

Don't Laugh! Mine just fell off too but Billy Mays and Mighty Putty fixed the problem!

 

[MutantCheese]

He must have the Dinc confused with the Evo and the light leakage issue.

 

[06Stang]

Yeah ditch your inc before the screen falls off and buy the x. Just overclock the x real quick and you're set

 

[Josh2]

Wow.....

Wow, I hope my screen doesn't fall off. Does anybody know any way I can protect it?

No, he just got it backward. The logos are falling off and the screens are falling behind.

Yo yo! I thought the manual said pull the string for FRO YO. Thanks for clearing that up. I thought mine was defective.

 

[fortesquieu]

Well, he could be right. Samsung MAY be facing this problem while in production. It makes sense to me but we never know.

Where are you located? A VZW rep in a store told me the exact same thing!

 

[adrynalyne]

Yeah but this is a VZW store rep, most barely know which direction to wipe.

No offense to any employees out there

 

[Reaver]

Duct tape fixes anything! Time to start a campaign for Samsung and HTC. Send them a roll of duct tape to help with the screen manufacturing issues.

Austin, Texas

Interesting. I'm in Boston, so this is apparently a nation wide thing with some reps. I honestly haven't heard a single case of this happening, but if a VZW salesperson says so....

I should have turned and walked away as soon as I entered. The thick, bushy uni-brow was a dead give-away that I had just walked in on cro-magnon man.
