Alright, I'll bite.

New random tell from someone who saw my "Master Tailor" tag in Theed a couple of days ago.

Potential client: Dude - you're a master tailor?
Vesobe: That's right, yes. How can I help?
Potential client: Does that mean you can make clothes

*something in me rolls its eyes and refuses to do the right thing*

Vesobe: Sorry man, no. I bought the Master Tailor tag to meet chicks, I can't actually make anything at tall.
Potential client: Ha! Good call! I bet it works too! K, I'll look for one who can make stuff.

Didn't hear from him again.

Spent a good ten minutes just staring blankly at my monitor.

ok, here is a good one. (and by "good" I mean actually a really good customer!) I just got back in the game and had "costumer" up. Mostly dont like to run around with Master Tailor up. so I got the following tell


Customer- Are you a Master Tailor?


Me - Yep


Customer- Do you have time for a special order?


Me - well, a little time (RL hubby had just gone on a food run) Where are you and do you know what you want?


Customer- In Theed and I think so.


at this point...I had been reading this thread and was thinking "oh boy....this will be a live one" I was also in Theed so sent him a wp to the closest crafting station.


He came in (very prompt!) and said


Customer- I would like camo pants and a shirt to match my hair (bright teal blue)


I made what he needed, well, two versions actually......switching the colors back and forth a bit so he could try them on and see what he wanted... He tried 'em on, gave back to me what he didn't want. Also requested boots (in black of course) took those and then asked about the price. I was so delighted to have a first-back-in-game custom order that was so easy...I told him 2k (and told him the reason for it.....knowing exactly what he wanted...meeting me so quickly...respecting my time etc) That is when he started haggling on the price. but in reverse.


Customer- Tell you what, I make lots of money, you gave good service so here is 20k. Do you need a ride back to Theed or the spaceport or anything?


I thanked him profusely and told him he could patronize my shop or services anytime!


Needless to say, I want him to come back and bring many many like minded friends!!!!!

Well I just love making my clothes... and I'm torn from dropping it sadly due to the CU... and publish 18...


anyways... I too have had those experiences that many have been asking...



"make me something black..."


"why can't I wear this?"


"I want a bright red cloak... what? Not in the color palette?!"


etc.


I try to attract people to my shop on the bazaar...


alas... it's coming to an end... I wish they would fix the clothes/schemes...


Bye for now fellow tailors!

I got a weird guy today. He came into my shop (which it's set up yet - there's nothing for sale), walked up to me as I was crafting, and invited me to a group. All without saying a word. I said hello, asked what he was doing, and the only answer I got was another group invite. So I banned him from my shop, and still he stood outside my door until I had to go to another of my houses (right next door). He followed me into that one, so I banned him there too, then went to my other two houses to ban him there, and he followed me the whole way, inviting me to a group over and over. Finally I went back to my first house to craft some more, and he still stood at my door until I told him I would file a harrassment ticket unless he left. Then he finally did. He didn't say a word the whole time.


I don't get it. O_o

yea hehe, he was probably a noob, for some reason they like it when you come to where they are and group with them for no reason...

I'm pretty sure everyone who's ever been a Tailor has gotten this one. A lot. I started telling my customers that to me cool/badass is a pair of hot pink hawtpants. You'd be amazed how decisive they get once they hear that.

Well the other night i had an absolutley perfect customer ......


I was outside Mos Eisley beating on the lesser spawns outside (trying to up my CL because of all the extra stupid CL8 npc spawns that have appeared since the patch) and there was a new pleyer running around taking his time killing things nearby, i did my usual polite wave and say hi etc and he waved back .....


Anyway he must have checked my profile as i don't wear a tag and this is the /send conversation theat ocured


NewGuy: Hi, would you be able to make me some clothes?

Me: (getting ready to take a morphine if it starts going funny) Yes sure i could, have you any idea what you would like?

NewGuy: Well.. I'm new to the game and i'm really not sure what can be made, would you be able to make some sugestions?

Me: (warning signal flashing in the background) Well there are a lot of diferent clothes and colors to choose from, would you like me to send you a web address to a cool site with pictures of all the clothes that can be made and what colors they can be?

NewGuy: Wow that would be perfect.

Me: Ok try this site <insert tk fashions web address> choose what you like and what color then let me know and i will see what i can do.

NewGuy: OK will do.


Well 10 mins goes by and i see he is still standing around so i carry on killing stuff, then he /sends me again


NewGuy: Hi, i've decided what i would like, could you make me adecorative vest with the main color as the first lighttan on the bottom row and the trim in a dark red, a wrapped skirt in the same colors and could you make a sunguard in the closest color to thetan that you can.

Me: (in shockat the detailed info he has given me and that black was not mentioned) Ok give me a few minutes and i will get it done.


Anyway to cut a long story short, i had a good chat with him and ended up making thevest, skirt, sunguard and a pair of sandals to go with it for free because he was such a nice guy, since then he has been to my store on numerous ocassions buying clothes (i have never seen him buy a black item once) and has had lots of custom clothes made for him by myself, he is always nice, never tries to haggle and most importantly he HATES black clothes hehe.


See? there are some nice customers out there
