Online Salesmen
by Administrator on Mar.06, 2009, under Editorial
I don’t know about you but when I walk into a store the quickest way to annoy me is to have salesmen swoop down like vultures. A quick can I help you from a passing sales associate is acceptable whom I usually give a no thanks. When I go into a store I either know exactly what I want or just want to browse and take in what’s available. If I need something I will ask. Follow me around and annoy me and I’m outta there. What’s really annoying is that a lot of websites have started employing this kind of crap. One of the great niceties of the web is the ability to leisurely shop anonymously without being harassed. A lot of sites now monitor activity and as quick as you land on a page a salesman is jumping you wanting to “assist”. To be blunt and to the point I despise the practice and my first action is to close the window and leave the site.
Fresh stock and expansion

The black Scythe Kaze Master Ace fan controller is due back in stock next week. In the same shipment are a number of fans for stock replentishment and we are adding Scythe Thermal Elixir and the Scythe Bay Rafter to stock. Being I have gotten a new day job as a programmer(got laid off the end of November) I am continuing the expansion of anartik that has been somewhat downsized for the past couple months. Next week I will be adding 38 (not Scythe) new products and the expansion will roll from there. I want to thank all our great customers that have helped more than double our monthly sales over the past 3 months.
Nothing terribly spectacular yet but next week brings a line of black sleeved wiring adapters including some very long ones with switches, 80/120/140mm black wire fanguards, 140/90/40mm chrome fan guards, AC adapters for powering external 12V fans/devices, a couple colors of EL lighting, a slew of regular and UV connector hoods to complete our offering, more wiring tools, 8″ UV tie wraps, affordable gold plated 1.3 compliant HDMI cables, Sata & power PCI brackets and more. I attempted to get more dual tube CCFL UV lights but yet another supplier is out of stock. Stay tuned for more updates on our expansion.
Deluge of Spam

If you are spamming this blog you are wasting your time. This blog uses Askimet which has so far been 100% effective. To all the douche bag phony/counterfeit drug spammers… drop dead.
