...customers? hello?

[burntcopper]

Oh my god. Never remind me to go into McCulloch & Wallis (little haberdashers off Oxford St). Not only are they overpriced, but I swear. That place hasn't changed since Victorian times. including the concept of serving customers.

Quick description : it's a ramshackle bunch of shelves, ribbons, hooks, buttons and tape and feathers and such crammed in everywhere, with no apparent order aside from 'er, ribbons are on that shelf'. (this is also what you get if you try to ask a question on where something is) Trying to get the attention of staff is impossible, and then their concept of actually serving people who're waiting to pay is just...argh. Queuing up by the till with items might indicate that said people want to pay. This is not the point where you meander off and start sorting buttons, then give you a complete dazed look when you indicate that you might want to pay for something.

Argh I hate McCulloch & Wallis! I try and use their website because the items are cheaper but then I remember that their p+p is ridiculous so you end up paying the same as you would in the shop. Even for 1 tiny buckle it's still £7.50 postage. Stupid place!
