Condescendence?
<<Definition of condescending. : showing or characterized by a patronizing or superior attitude toward others.>>
Hmm, what could fit this definition more than a guy who chooses to reply to his paid-for-but-still-waiting-3-weeks-later customers with auto replies?
Yeah I guess we better not do anything to upset them. They apparently are not willing to be disrespected by people whom they have disrespected first.
Sounds like we sure are lucky to have a rep stopping by here, who will be setting the terms for how he will be treated.


I get why having a rep here is beneficial, but I am never cool with being told by someone how they expect their own actions to be reacted to.
I’m in agreement with you. But judging by how he replied in email, I find the guy is under some stress, and figured it be in our best interest to get warmed up slowly.
And if I’m not mistaken
@biggerben69 did mention that he is practically a one man show. But he also emphasized consistent quality and suggested him an honest man. That’s a lot to expect from the typical online ugl dealer.
Remember, he’s not a source here in Meso, and it is we that are asking him for presence. Fact of the matter is, he isn’t even here to be run off. Of all the sources that exist, he happens to be one that most will concur that we would rather have here. I’m pretty sure most online ugl’s know about Meso and how we deal with sources trying to get their foot in the door. This is a different situation however.
Look if we ever get to establish a rapport with these guys, we can make all the comments we feel like.
At the end of the day, no one is forcing him upon us. We are all grown people and we don’t have to order from anyone in particular.
Let me share a short true story with you, if I may. I manage some real estate. I work for a partnership landlord/management firm. Anyway, we have a AC guy services our units and does an great job, charges better than any formal 3rd party operation. His work is clean, fast and reliable! However, any time you call him, it goes to voice mail, he’s good with text messages but don’t hold your breath that you’ll get a reply in under 3 hours. Oh the frustrations working with this guy. BUT, he has saved us THOUSANDS!!! We know if he touches it, it’s fixed! Tenants have never once complained about his personality.
What’s the point of all this? Well, sometimes a persons personality may be shit, but it’s more of a loss to replace them. Sometimes they mean well, but the just can’t eaxape their own personality. If it becomes too much, than that’s that. We show him the door. But we haven’t even really started anything yet with Dyel.
Let’s reserve the ax for the now brother.
