I hope you enjoy this true story as much as I did. My friend Jimmy was constantly being bombarded by this telemarketer . You know the one that gurantees to fix your leaky basement or your money back. Well after a half dozen calls Jimmy tells him to come on out and "give him an estimate."

Well the next saturday Jimmy is working in his shop beside his trailor when he hears a truck pull up. This extremely embarrased gentleman says with a puzzled look on his face :confused: " You don't even have a basement." To this Jimmy replies with a sheepish grin " No ****. I told you that right after I told you to quit calling me 6 times!" Poor shmuck probably had nothing to do with the calls but I'm sure who ever did got the point. You would have to hear Jimmy tell it to truly enjoy it. I LMAO.

    One of my favorite games is when they ask to speak with Mr. Tour, I ask who is calling and when I confirm it's a marketer I say, "I think he'd want to speak with you please hold and I'll get him."

    Then I lay the phone down and go about my business. Used to see how long they'd hold (record was around 7 minutes), but that got old...
    More later,
    Tour...

    Just tell them this: "I'm sorry but the original tenant is longer living here, in fact they are no longer living; because I chopped them up and ate them with some collard greens". Works for me.:D

    You know how you sometimes here that the conversation may be recorded for training purposes? Well I tell them that I'm recording the conversation on my end too. They usually hang up right away.

    I usually say, "Yea, tell me all about it....I'm going **** to the sound of your voice."

    One lady just went on ahead and told me her deal, I sent them some money, because she was a real trooper.
    CTC BBQ Amplifier, Sonic Frontiers Line3 Pre-Amplifier and Wadia 581 SACD player. Speakers? Always changing but for now, Mission Argonauts I picked up for $50 bucks, mint.
