I needed a new mobile phone and the one I wanted wasn't available in store at the time. One of the employees overheard my conversation and he happened to own the phone I was after. He happily showed me the phone and let me use it to see if I liked it. He even wrote down the web address of a company that sold the protective covers for the phone for me. I ordered one then and there! I'm very impressed by the service.
Was looking for a digital camera. Found a few on sale and had to look around for someone to help me. Finally got sales assistant's attention but not much help offered. Camera I chose was a very good brand at a great price.
Feb 2011 - Happy to report that service has greatly improved!
Approximate cost: $150
