Closeout BD boots caused a feeding frenzy!!!

So, not too long ago we received a truck load of closeout Black Diamond ski boots; so many in fact that we really didn’t know what to do with them. Sadly, as human nature dictates: excess leads to greed. Before we even got them all put away the staff was bickering, claiming “dibs” on sizes and rationalizing why they should have their pick before everyone else (except for Jeff, apparently he’s too good for BD boots). I tried to explain that there was more than enough for everybody. But my righteous words fell on ears already too polluted by selfishness and greed to hear anything but sin.

Things got out of hand when I walked out and saw Lisa and Andrea fighting like rabid female dogs over a pair of Black Diamond STILETTOs.

There was biting, scratching, roundhouse kicking, hair was flying everywhere. By the time I pried the boots out of their greedy clutches there were so many bite marks on them that we had to knock an additional 15% off the pair. It was really embarrassing to watch.

Then I turned around to what looked like an old western bar-fight everybody punching everybody and really not sure why. Black Diamond PUSH and Black Diamond FACTOR boots were flying all over the place. Frightened customers were fleeing the store concerned for their own safety. Things were getting pretty out of control…until a teary eyed Fingers burst in and shouted “Well I NEVER!
You guys are acting like a bunch of little kids, or drunken cowboys, I’m not sure which.. But the CUSTOMERS, won’t somebody please think of the customers”. Then as he broke down into uncontrollable sobbing, we all realized how disgracefully we had been acting. Then everything was back to normal in like ten minutes.

Moral of the story: we have A LOT of BD boots, and they are ALL best price.
Be nice, ski hard, and get some new boots from the WildyX,
