I talked with a person at GL that had all the personality of a frozen fish and this is why I am begining to hate Global Liquidators:
(It's fairly close to a word for word)
GL: Global Liquidators, may I help you?
Me: Yes, I was just calling about the Feb. 7th auction and I wanted to talk to someone about the trucks for sale.
GL: Yes, can I help you? (Same person)
Me: I was wondering if any of the vehicles are running?
GL: I couldn't tell you that.
Me: Who could tell if they are running or not?
GL: Nobody right now, everyone else is out of the office.
Me: So what can you tell me?
GL: I really don't have any information on the trucks.
Me: Why not?
GL: Because I don't get out there and we have quite a few trucks here to deal with.
ME: Uh......you have..... uh, two - trucks?
GL: Well, we have other trucks in other areas too.
Me: Ok. but somebody put a minimum bid of $1000 on those two trucks you do have on your lot, so that implies to me that somebody must know something about them and you are saying there is nobody that has any information?
GL: Yes.
Me: Just seems like if you put a $1000 minimum on a truck there ought to be information available to justify that, right?
GL: Would you like to leave a message and I will have somebody call you back?
Me: No, not really. Sorry, but that doesn't work, I have left 3 messages and nobody ever calls me back and even left an email.
GL: Who did you leave a message with when you called?
Me: I aksed for Bob and I left the message with you. (pause in conversation - they are getting mad)
Me: Look I am not trying to be a problem I'm just looking for some answers that should be real simple for people selling trucks at an auction. I've asked for 3 weeks if you have any running trucks and for 3 weeks I get the same answer, you don't know.
GL: Do you want my managers number?
Me: No, like I said I don't want to cause you any trouble, but I hope you understand that as a buyer of trucks I need to find out something about them or I won't be a buyer. You know what I am saying here?
GL: I understand.
Me: Well, can you tell me when will you post the pictures for the sale?
Gl: They should be downloading today.
Me: Well thats something I guess. Thanks very much.
End
ARRRRRGggggg!!!!! Unbelievable how these people can draw a salary!!!
