When a product is super complex, fixed pricing might not make sense. I wouldn't ask a general contractor "how much would it cost to remodel my kitchen?" before they have seen my home (especially because I don't because a kitchen!)
- gesman 7y agoIt's more like: "how much does it cost for that specific model of a washing machine?". You shouldn't be forced to "call for pricing".
- PopeDotNinja 7y agoEven if you know what washing machine you want, that might not be the one you want to buy. An experienced salesperson will ask what you need, why you need it, and help you understand your options. They aren't there to take orders and be micromanaged. If you want to walk in with the attitude that you know what is best, I recommend writing down what you need and why you need it in advance, so you can communicate you know what your needs are without insisting on a solution. The recommended thing may or may not be what you thought you wanted. If you can't write down your needs clearly and concisely, buying what you thought you wanted is likely to turn into an expensive waste of time for all parties.
