That explains why she got so edgy alright. People engaged in illegal activities are usually quite camera shy.

Jeremy,

Exactly.

Normally, business owners would be thrilled at someone wanting to write an article about their business because it’s free publicity.

That is why her behavior was very confusing.

When are you going back to take more photos?

Bill,

I’m tempted to go back and photograph the owner of PC DIY and posting his photo on the Internet to show the world the face of a dishonest retailer, but it’s not something I will go out of my way for.

Interesting. Pirates! Photoshop that wench.

FerfelaBat,

In fairness to the woman, her shop has never been sued for selling illegal software and it is actually considered one of the more reputable shops among the others.

But after my experience with her and the other guy who refused to exchange the battery – not to mention the guy I interviewed who refused to give me his name – I will buy my electronics elsewhere.

Ferfe is fine. Pronounced Fur-fay. People only use my full name when I am in trouble ‘-)

Oh heck,
if you’re in the neighborhood, take some more pictures just ’cause of her attitude . . . good job as always Carlos.

For somebody who gets all high and mighty about journalistic integrity, you certainly implied that the woman was part of the group of bad owners.

If she’s not, as your answer seems to clarify, then you should have made it VERY CLEAR in your post and not wait for a comment.

Alex,

Maybe you are right, but after my experience with her, I am not fully convinced that she is NOT part of the group of bad owners.

As it is right now, I lump them all in the same category.
