Let us understand you, you want us to privately message you to know the price of your product. What if we find out it is too expensive for us to afford? What a waste of your time and ours.

Most vendors fail to display their prices to swindle unsuspecting customers of money. They profile their customers and model prices to fit the client. This is the same way many vendors at markets work. if they feel that they have caught a rich customer, they increase the price while giving the actual price to customers that can only afford that.

Many customers can testify to ending present na future purchases with vendors over rude behaviour. One might have the best product or service to render but when they lack customer etiquette, the business is bound to suffer. Customers will patronise businesses that respect them over the quality of their products.

Arguing with customers over a complaint is a telltale sign of an untrustworthy vendor.

3. Late Replies

The anxiety of waiting for a response after payment is a horror that one cannot empirically describe. If you can type with the speed of lighting when getting a customer to commit their funds, then maintain the same energy when responding to them after payment.

The excuse of having so many customers to attend to, should be appropriated with an apology. Customers are at liberty to be offended over the laxity of response.
