I don't remember, but I may have written something like this before, if I have I apologize and feel free to mail me a kick in the junk
There are many types of consumers in the world. There are intelligent consumers who research their product and find out which of the available models have the features they want at the price they want to pay. Even if you have the money to throw away on a designer brand, you want to make sure that what you are getting at least seems worth it.
Then there are impulse buyers. They go window shopping, or just happen to walk by a store and then there it is: the object that will solve all of their problems, at least for the next 20 minutes.
Then there are the fat lazy sacks of crap who sit at home all the time and buy girls gone wild and diet pills that they see ads for on Comedy Central.
Finally there are the MP3 shoppers. These people have to be the most ignorant and willful people ever to have landed on this planet from wherever they came from. Most of them don't even know what an MP3 player is, because the object that they are shopping for is a specific brand of MP3 player called the iPod. The iPod is not the worst MP3 player on the market, but from a pure money to features look, the iPod is the worst value on the market. However, upon showing the better products with a lesser cost, the MP3 consumer will invariably turn aside other models because "the iPod is easier to use" or "it has to be an iPod because she'll freak out if I get her anything else". These statements are erroneous and the people that come into my store and neglect to listen to my advice need to burn and die in hell for making me obsolete.
In conclusion, as far as customers and consumers go, the MP3 consumer is one of the worst. He is dwarfed only to the tantrum child owning mother, the "drool on your merchandise but not buy anything because I no speaka de english" foreigner and the "I want to haggle because I'm too cheap to pay retail price and if you don't haggle I will chew your face off" granny.
