Last
Saturday
afternoon,
on
July
9th,
I
visited
the
Goodwill
store
in
search
of
a
bookshelf.
To
my
surprise,
they
charged
an
audacious
$64
for
a
used
bookshelf
that
didn't
even
have
a
price
tag.
My
friend
and
I
had
to
carry
it
by
ourselves
to
the
cashier,
only
to
be
informed
of
this
exorbitant
price.
When
I
inquired
about
the
high
price,
the
person
behind
the
counter
said
that
was
the
price
and
didn't
show
any
willingness
to
reconsider.
When
I
asked
to
speak
to
the
manager,
the
young
teller
responded
very
rudely,
claiming
to
be
the
manager
himself
and
insisting
that
the
$64
price
tag
was
non-negotiable.
While
he
may
indeed
be
the
manager,
in
America,
when
we
escalate
an
issue
to
the
manager,
we
don't
expect
such
discourteous
behavior.
It's
disheartening
to
see
that
such
American
values
were
not
displayed,
and
the
employee
failed
to
recognize
that
Goodwill
stores
are
meant
to
offer
discounted
prices
for
used
items.
I
must
say,
I
am
deeply
disappointed
with
this
experience.
In
comparison
to
other
Goodwill
stores,
the
Goodwill
store
at
Milpitas
falls
short
in
terms
of
the
quality
and
availability
of
inventory
and
products.
This
could
be
attributed
to
the
lack
of
nearby
competition.
Thank
you
for
considering
my
feedback.
Best
regards,
Syed
