nospam goes into every discussion thinking that his position is the only right position.
everyone does that. that's what drives discussions. who goes into a discussion thinking that they're wrong??
You could respond to what I said, not what I didn't say. I don't phrase my comments without thought.
Hehe
Is that how you read the comment? Does "only" not translate into Swedish?Tony CooperSandman
There's a vast difference between thinking you are right and thinking that your position is the *only* right position. When there are options of ways to do things, there is often more than one right way to do them.
How did that change nospam's reply, Tony? If he would have said:
"who goes into a discussion thinking their position is wrong?"
It wouldn't have changed his meaning at all. No one does that. Humble and mature people can have their position swayed when proof and substantiations are brought forward, and then we have people like you, who will argue your position for days no matter how insane it is.I guess you didn't have time to read what you were replying to. It wasn't at all about thinking one's position is right or not thinking one's position is right.
Could you translate that sentence into English?Tony CooperSandman
If that's true, then all that "online help" above isn't going to be taken advantage of either.
Why not? It is found in direct relation to the product they're vieweing online.
Checking reviews and ratings *before* you enter a store isn't really a smooth buyer experience.Really? nospam must be right, then. I do things the hard way. I do, if the product represents a significant expense, check reviews and ratings before entering the store. Seems like the best way to do it.
Shipping costs are an unrelated parameter in deciding whether or not an online supplier's price is competitive?Tony CooperSandman
So a $10 difference, after shipping charges, of one item establishes that camera stores charge double? And, you had to wait for delivery. What if you needed it today? What if what is offered online is a knock-off product from China that isn't as good a quality?
Tony working hard to make it seem the prices quoted aren't "about double" by adding unrelated parameters.
And now B&H sells low-quality knock-offs from China?I guess I must have missed where nospam said online choices are limited to B&H.
No, I think he was right about something. Give me some time. I'm sure I'll think of something he was right about.Tony CooperSandman
It all comes around to my position that there is often more than one "right" way to do things.
As long as it's not nospam's way to do things, that is. That can never be right, no matter what.
