There! That's the weird attitude I was getting. So why do you feel this way? Has someone ever waltzed into your fish room with a bottle of antifreeze and started dancing around in circles as it splattered into your tanks?First, you're not their customer. Second, how would you react when some stranger just came and ask if he can "tour" your place? Consider you were lucky that they let you tour their place!![]()
Wow. I had no idea about fish freedom fighters! Does that actually ever happen?The answer is several fold.
First and foremost, we all understand wanting to see masses of fish. What a lot of you guys don't get are the hundreds of people against keeping fish, and don't have to deal with the stuff they pull to either kill off or 'set free' captive animals. Letting in a random person off the street isn't smart at all.
Secondly, a lot of them to want to keep their business private. They deal with stores on a professional level. Letting people see the price difference is stabbing the store owners in the back, and very rude on a professional level.
Coming in off the street, they have no clue who you are. All it would take is a bottle of liquid dish soap in you pocket to wipe them (and the staff who works for them) out.
They weren't being rude, they were being safe.

As far as pricing, it would be very silly for a random person to question the pricing of fish. Even if I worked for one store and saw that the guy across town was paying less than me for the same fish, how is that my business? The seller names the price. That's always the game. I'd have to be a whiny snob to get angry about something like that.
Again, do these attacks actually happen?
