If you’d like to pay via PayPal, contact our sales team.
For fuck’s sake, either you accept PayPal or you don’t. What kind of shady behind-the-curtains bullshit are you trying to pull?
The API for the PayPal checkout workflow is too complicated for us, but one of us knows how to manually type in the order details to send you an invoice.
They’ll probably send you the paypal friends link, which you can’t use for business purposes lol
Hahahaha, yep

Do we really need this comment on every fucking post? No one claimed the meme is a diagnostic criteria.
But it’s in an ADHD meme community, isn’t that the point of this community?

I have ADHD and even said the same thing seeing this.
I do the same in stores. If there’s no prices listed I’ll just walk away. I absolutely hate surprises at the register.
I “walk away” online as well.
“Sign in to get price”.
Guess what, it’s never a mind blowing low price. It’s like $5.00 less than normal. Hidden prices are never a deal.Costco online is the only exception to this, for me. You need a paid account to shop there anyway, so I’m willing to jump through that hoop most of the time. It’s still a pain, and I’ve definitely closed the tab a few times on Costco when I was pretty sure I was getting a better deal somewhere else.
What sort of places do this?
Thankfully not too many, Often I’ll find some things are marked but not everything in smaller stores like some grocery, variety stores, second hand shops etc.
I moved last year. I looked into so many companies that drop off a box for later pickup. Only one of them (U-Haul) published their prices and they were very affordable.
They published their price because their marketing advantage was price.
Yes. It infuriates me that members of my species keep these places in business. They should all be out of business since absolutely no one should be buying their unpriced shit.

Think California specifically made a law that whatever the sign up method is there must also exist that method for cancellation.
Laws against bs.
Same with certain home improvement companies that hope once you’re on the line, they can close the sale there and then.
I swear they must make all their money off people who don’t want to think about what the job involves, and just hand over a chequebook.The water softener from Costco is £500, the one from ScrewFix is £400, but I’m curious how much the one from NameBrand is.
NameBrand website “Well, it can vary a lot depending on how complicated…”
Forum posts: “£2k including fitting and a year’s salt, £1500 for the unit”
(Which isn’t an insane price to just have it sorted, I just hate the bollocks excuses when everyone magically still comes out around £2k)The physical staircase will cost me about £1000, then a few days of skilled labour for someone to fit.
I wonder how much one of those “we’ll just handle it” companies in the back of the sunday supplement could do it for…Oh, that’s 15 times the price, wonderful.I get what your saying and obviously overpaying by 15x, like in your example is a terrible idea but, I will say, overpaying by a much smaller amount to save time is sometimes worth it.
One thing your example does not do, and its something most people don’t do is factor in how much your time is worth. Is spending an extra $500, for example, worth as much as multiple hours of your time?
I absolutely agree.
Honestly, if NameBrand posted their prices, I might have considered them, as once my time organising/plumbing (or paying a plumber) is factored in, the difference isn’t so massive.
I just loathe the principle of having to get a quote for even the basic device in a box!

I’d guess they don’t actually want to sell you a desk. They are probably in the business of selling hundreds of desks for offices, and this is their way of keeping out the small purchases that they aren’t targeting.
That’s just lazy. They can put min order quantity to achieve the same effect.
i have one amazon account i’m locked out from because i forgot the name i used to sign up for it (there are numerous ways i could’ve written it and they only gave me three attempts) and another one that’s blocked because i incorrectly filled my credit card details while ordering a gift card and about to just create a third one because they want me to call them and talk to support for both cases.
Mine got blocked for repeatedly calling to say items were not delivered.
I hsve taken more I’ve given Amazon so that’s a win for me.
Password manager with auto-fill can prevent both issues :)
how so? it would just offer me a list of possible combinations of name/surnames.
i could’ve written them in four different languages (english, ukrainian, russian, polish), and that’s not even including transcription into latin for ukrainian and russian.
and also they don’t even say if they expect name-surname or surname-name ordering, so the check is fundamentally broken and impossible to pass reliably.also the password managers usually don’t save cvv and even if they did I’d have to disable that feature because I’m using dynamic cvv that refreshes every hour
it would just offer me a list of possible combinations of name/surnames.
The password manager suggests the details you saved for amazon, usually at sign-in. It doesn’t just show you a list of everything you ever typed into a form field.

They want you to call them so their can gauge how much they can ask you/your company.
You’re getting scammed.
