the old bait and switch

Fell for the old bait and switch last night, this time with a camera company. It's amazing to me that you could divert a long-time customer from one product towards something else that's higher margin even though you know from your history with that client that he's on a limited budget. Amazing.

...and when you try to get some, it surely can be hard. There's always trouble waiting, when you leave your own back yard.
