Odd Question

[joshgambit]

I don't want to start a flame war, and I'm not trying to sound like a troll.

But.

I have a nagging feeling about a certain company; and I had decided never to purchase their goods. I don't remember why, but my gut says not to do it. I mean, there must have been a reason why I decided this, right?!?

I don't think it would be fair to mention names, but I wonder if anyone else gets that feeling about companies or products (shaving or non-shaving related...)


Do you ever have that weird feeling?

 

[PMT]

Sometimes, but it is a company discussed here?

 

[SalvadorMontenegro]

The company is Badger & Blade, isn't it?

 

[sychodelix]

Well...spit it out. At least someone can let you know their thoughts on the company and their products.

Use Pig Latin so nobody knows...

Do you ever have that weird feeling?

I do with Microsoft. If Apple ever goes under, it is back to Linux for me.

Do you ever have that weird feeling?
Yes, sometimes it was just that a weird feeling, Other times it saved my Azz.
when it comes to products, I look them over checking quality.
looking past the marketing and image of the product.

but if you don't feel comfortable with a company's product don't bye it.

It's Simpsons.

 

[hedonist222]

Why do you feel that?

 

[maxman]

I don't put too much thought into it.
If it doesn't feel right then I pass.
There isn't any product in the world that's worth spending time worrying about it.

It's all just stuff. Buy a Kent and you'll be happy.

 

[Argonaut]

It's Simpsons.

What did The Simpsons ever do to you? Provide 20+ years of brilliant comedy in animation form, that's what!
Oh, you might be talking about the shaving brushes Simpsons. I have no experience with them, but I won't deny anyone their personal vendettas, unless they're against me.

 

[sychodelix]

All I know, is I lost any interest in them when they forced up the prices.

"I lost any interest in them when they forced up the prices."

+1 I have a Bershire, that it like, but that is it for me.

Do you ever have that weird feeling?

yes. I'm getting that weird feeling right now. Maybe the 11-50 employees working for that firm are also getting a weird feeling?

Cool if you are one of the 11. Not so much for the other 39.

 

[KipNoxzema]

Well, you get a bad product or bad service sometimes. It's natural to never buy their products again. No guilt involved.

 

[Judge Dredd]

Kinda hard if it's the big G - whilst most of us threw out our multi-blades, we're probably still buying the 7 O'Clocks and any one of a number of other big G blades coming out of Russia, India, etc, not to mention the hankering for Fat Boys, Slim Adjustables and the like

 

[jansob]

I say don't buy from them...not because of the objective facts, but because you won't be happy with the purchase. We humans are astoundingly irrational at times, but that irrationality is not usually arguable. Simpsons will survive and the brush company you choose will thrive....and they may have people who don't like them for whatever reason.

I don't care for a car company, for utterly trivial reasons...but I would never be totally happy with purchasing their cars, and that's enough.

Well, really, after the first five seasons, a lot of the shows were shedders or the handles cracked and the labels fell off. Or had lumpy knots. Sure, some were still golden, but more "off" than "on".
