Re: Sprint people in stores

I had a disturbing experience last week when I went into a Radio Shack to pick up some cable. There was some backup at the register so I started to talk to a salesman about Sprint service, posing as a potential customer. He immediately touted me off of Sprint and on to Verizon. I was taken aback. He explained that Sprint had poor coverage and that was typically only subscribed to by teenagers getting their first cell phone! He then took me over to the coverage maps for each service to show me the differences, to drive home his point.

What kind of a deal does Sprint have with RS? Do the salesman get a bigger commission from VZ? Was this guy just some loose cannon?

Puzzled,

jack
