Salespeople operate that way. It works with an amazing number of
people. The couple of times I've have had a saleperson try that tactic
on me, I've simply said "Hey, if you want to be my salesperson,
you've got to sell to me the way I want to be sold to, and this
isn't working right now". In one case I remember, the salesperson
apologized and then repeated the same exact tactic, and I politely
said "it's not working" and walked out. In all the other cases,
the conversation improved considerably. Show expect and expect
respect, it's a simple contract, sometimes you just have to
remind them.
