Two guys were there looking at the game cases and one said to the other, "I guess they are out of ps3's." I butted in and told him they were around the corner. They walked over to the end of the counter to look at them and I started to look at the games (nothing new, not that that was any surprise) when the one that was saying they were out of ps3's asked how much the 40gb version was. I told him it was 499, and the 80gb was 599. "I thought they dropped the price." I giggled wich i don't think was audible and said that they had dropped the price. "Do you come with it? Because otherwise it is not worth that price." I gave a hollow laugh and walked away. So is the ps3 just that overpriced that it needs the allure of a young woman to sell it? Or was this just a pickup line that has a good shot at winning the worst pickup line award? |
Obvious to me. The guys are looking at getting a PS3 at the reduced price and thinking it's sold out when a girl approaches them and helps them unasked, then talks about possibly their favorite subject. There is no doubt in my mind that the guys next move was to go after you, PS3 can wait, because you've just unintentionally shown him you are interested in him by starting a dialog. He was just trying to get you to laugh. A failed pickup line. Being a master at failure, I can recognize it when I see it.
