I try not to keep open orders, especially for a small or family business. If I want to bookmark individual knives, I can do that on my browser and even make a bunch of different files to find them with.Who has/had them? Those ridiculous shopping carts loaded with knives from all kinds of companies that have racked up a pretty penny, these days, sometimes 2 knives do the trick--- now what you put in the cart and what you actually ended up going through with purchasing I assume may be different. Every on topic story/post welcome
The one time I had an open order sitting overnight for a couple hundred dollars, I got an email in the morning from the regional knife store asking if I needed any help. For a few orders, if I left them open, the company would probably send a guy to complete the order at my doorstep and bring along starving orphans to hurry things along...
"You're at my doorstep, it's haggling time."
"OK, we'll go from 10 to 12% off for this purchase."
"Let's make it 15%."
"OK, but you have to take one of the orphans."
