Shopsmith Demo at Lowe's

Post by dusty »

I just got back from a short visit with Mike Young at Lowe's. I went there more to chat than to watch the demo since I have seen it three or four times already. I really had a hard time resisting Mike's salesmanship. I suppose that is because I want a PowerPro probably more than Mike wants to sell me one.

I enjoyed the day even though I did not come home a new owner. I met three or four Shopsmith users that I believe have either already upgraded or did upgrade today.

We exchanged names and numbers and hopefully they will join us here on the forum; I did encourage that.

One of them lives in Green Valley, Paul. He said he would be trying to make contact with you via the forum.

Hm, another SS demo in Georgia!

Lowe's of E Ellijay GA
380 Highland Crossing
E Ellijay, GA 30540

But Ellijay????:rolleyes: Good grief! Why so far out in the boonies?/ North Ga mountains. I live on the northside of Atlanta and it's still 50 miles out and an hour drive time.

I wonder if this is the same guy that was here back in January at the Lowes out in WEST Atlanta that time, ie about 40 miles and 45-50 minutes. I attended late on Saturday (probably his last demo) and he went through his presentation rather quickly as he seemed ready to pack it up and go home. He had 1 person that was purchasing, not sure what, and he attended to him. I tried to ask some questions, but when he realized I wasn't going to be buying anything, I could sense his lack of interest with me. Don't get me wrong, he was very nice and it was a very enertaining and enlighting demo!!
