I totally understand what you mean. My SA at the local store isn't pushy per se, but is definitely a top-down seller. I walk in just wanting to see some bags in person, telling her that straight up that I'm waiting for "the event" and she shows me everything and anything offering to pre-sale etc. I start out seeing $700 bags and in the end she is down to showing me the $45 bag charm lol. She's really sweet, but is so much a go getter that I feel guilty not buying anything. I only go into that store when I know I'm buying. I'll occasionally text her about a bag (her store gets EVERYTHING) and next you know she'll send me a pic of the bag, all dressed up with a novelty strap, scarf, bag charm or whatever. It cracks me up. It's also because her store gets everything that I'm reluctant to buy sight unseen because returns shipped from her store are harder than returns from Jax.

Alternatively, my main SA who gets almost all of my business (e-bates aside) I've never met. She lives across the country and we just text back and forth. Zero pressure. Plus, she will hunt down a bag for you and basically go above and beyond w/o the pressure. I'm grateful that a fellow tpfer shared her with me :)
Sounds like you have the best of both world! [emoji41]

It's a balance lol. I actually have a 3rd who I've only texted but is local now and is really great too. The 2 local SA's, however, never offer the F&F discount to me. I don't really blame them since I think it's truly supposed to be for friends and family, but it definitely influences my decision on who I reach out to when I want to order something ;)

Wow awesome! I had an SA put something on hold so I'm going to ask.
I'm hoping to find time tomorrow and stop by. If its only going to be 40/20 it won't be much of a deal compared to when it finally does go to 50% plus e*bates has been as high as 14% lately. I've been trying to put more thought into my purchases lately but would definitely go for it at 50/20% then make a final decision after if I should return or not.
