<ddu...@edwardwadsworth.com> choked out these words:
the salon i work in sells Redken for Men Densify shampoo for
$11.99 (yours is $13.00) and the RfM Go Clean shampoo for $9.99
(yours is $11.00), and then they still have to pay for shipping
if they buy from you!!!

You're paying for the convenience of not having to park, wait in traffic,
etc. if you go on Ebay, though. I ordered some Matrix on Ebay not too long
ago (I knew it wasn't counterfeit because it's a special gift package I'd
already seen at Trade Secret and at Beauty Works.) and I know I paid five
dollars more than if I'd bought it at the mall or from my stylist (who
actually carries more Tigi and Paul Mitchell products than Matrix ones), but
it was just more convenient that week to get it off Ebay.
It's just like if a woman buys panty hose at a Seven Eleven instead of at
the local drug store or mall because she has a run and her corporate meeting
where she has to stand and give a speech in a skirt is in one hour. They're
going to be more $$$, but she waits in a shorter line behind less bitchy
customers to get the product. Time is money and corporate America *knows*
that.
AFAIC, the less crying, screaming brats and arguing newlyweds that I wait
behind in line, the happier campier *I* am in the long run. That's the
solitary reason I signed up for Netflix. I hated waiting in line at
Hollywood Video and Blockbuster behind arguing couples who are supposedly
married and treat each other like crap hollering "That's a STUPID choice of
a movie! Why the Hell did you pick that shit out?!?! That's crazy! Put that
back! We're not watching that shit!". That's just nonsense. I can't
understand people who are in relationships and put up with such treatment in
a public place. These people are just disrespectful to their partners and
EVERYONE AROUND them. It's horrible.
