   How do you tell a sales person "you are unselling me - tell me a price and shut up"
   
   They just - are managing to make me less excited as time goes on - because I know they are *saying* things wrong. I've *used* the product before.

     @TrillionB Yeah - but in this case I told them:
     "I used this at my last job. I need a damn quote two days ago, can you help"
     
     And they decided to give me a demo that unsold their product

     @silverwizard When I'm "selling", I can sometimes forget to "accept the Yes".

     I'm so excited about the topic, or just caught up in my script, that I keep talking after the customer is sold.

     I need the customer to tell me, "Sold! Where do I sign?" 😃

     @silverwizard
     That sounds extremely annoying 😅

     I'd be tempted to explain, extra clearly and simply, what my wishes are:

     "You don't have to convince me I want this. I already know I want it. I just need you to tell me the price. So I can tell you if the price is right for me."

     But that is hard to do without coming off as at least a bit rude 🤷♂️

     @MultimediaMage It was literally that they were talking about changes and it seemed less useful than before >.<

     @silverwizard Oh, that IS the worst.
