| Does anyone know what the deal is with the Elite. Now they are backordered till the August. Is it still a thing with parts from Whirlpool. I dont know for me, I love the Elite so I tend to really do good at selling it. I just love it. It is so much nice then the Conquest. I have so many top Elites not delivered so I upgraded them to the one with the inside water dispenser availabilty is right away. Today you could not order the one without water at all. Just wonder if you know anything | |

I posted about this subject under the land's end thread because that's where realstuff replied to a question I had about the TMHT program.
But, anyone can reply to me here, there, or anywhere. CS

Since we don't have any TMHT, I have decided to sell anything not nailed down. From now on, if it's not in an ad, or one of our best sellers, and a customer wants it today, it's gone. I think lowmorale was the one who suggested to sell the one up for the same price. Done. Two prices up? Split the difference. Noone walks without an appliance on their back (or drives without one in their truck). The ASM worries so much about the DM coming and finding empty holes. I think I'd worry more if he comes and finds no sales.

not only does subbing the next model up make the customer happy, you get a higher commission...i've been doing it for years |

Yup, I think I kind of missed the boat on that one. I now go by the policy, "If you don't want the answer, don't ask the question."

Hey, it is always easier to say you are sorry than to get permission!

SleK, if I am wrong, I am wrong. If I am wrong, I apoligize. If I am wrong, and you do not expect future comepensation in kind or in fact from a Labour union, you are either indepently wealthy or an activist.... If you are indeed an activist, I applaud you, and I'm serious. Either way, this forum is a good thing.... just don't edit it to death. |

I see that some of the "HardHeads" wish to play.
For "Whats", Did you wish to try again? For "slek", If you can remind yourself why it was done.

whathappenedtosears,
Apology accepted. 
Independantly wealthy? Far from. I work retail. I make under $13 per hour CAD (which is what? Like a dollar and a half US? ). "Activist" is a little more on the mark. If you'd care to do a little background research, you'll see that I've actually been sued by a labour union for my activities online.
I appreciate your sincerity, but I'm just the web geek. If anyone should be applauded it should be siggy: who funds this whole operation, was a founding member of MFD and also happens to be my Mother.
Stick to the PG and we'll all get along just fine. |

Nice move ( queen to r-3, lost?),
Take`um, if they leave`m. This came to mind, and it was late. No foul words here, just thoughts. (think, how you must) Bold is bold, but, truth is real. Intellihence= (see "knowlage" and "thought"). Now think for yourself. In the time to be, "It is the mind that makes the body rich; and as the sun breaks throught the darkness clouds, so honor peereth in the meanest habit""-Shakespeare Oh, hell, we`s just running the trails, Ratchet |

| It is amazing that I have to go to a Sears disgruntle website to find out that the take me home is suppose to already be in the stores after loosing five or six appliance sales last week. I have alot of apartment long term customers I deal with that need them yesterday. So I went in yesterday printed one of those for each appliance department they were as shocked as me. I then went to my bc he said we have washer and dryers we are not going to be carrying all of these we do not have the room. I am like what!!! So there it is!! | |

This board thrives on rumor and inuendo.
"Footie"[/quote] I agree Footie. Rumors and inuendo thrive in any democracy. Once a statement is thrown into the mix here it can be challenged and the facts researched. I'd rather hear the rumors than nothing at all. I take it all with a grain of salt until the facts are revealed but without starting points many issues may never be discovered. |

Well, we know now. So, we can take matters into our own hands. One thing I like about this job is that you write your own paycheck. But, if you have incompetent management, you have to overcome some obstacles or you lose money. I appreciate this site helping me learn what I can't at my own store! CS

So ask your ASM why you didn't have them. Push your ASM a bit on the issue, don't get a reasonable answer, go ask your SGM....he/she should be able to answer your question....first place to check is RIM, does the computer think you have them? |
