A NY wholesale clothing company had received a large shipment of men's suits from Europe. Many years ago.
They received about 200 suits with two left sleeves.
The mfg. in Europe did not know what to do with them. The cost of return, and remake would be beyond any value of the suits.
They also agreed to adjust the cost to the normal cost %, whatever price anyone could sell them for.
They told the merchant to brainstorm it and try to come up with a solution. And they did, held a sales meeting.
One salesman said he could sell them.
And he did. Every one.
If anyone is curious, email me. eejayi@yahoo.com
Can anyone guess to whom they were sold?
This is no joke, no prank, just a factual answer. I'm not a crank, or predator. I'm 78, just waiting alone for the end.
I really am curious as to how many will want to know to whom they were sold.
NO CHEATING, don't email me unless you have posted an answer. I will only respond to those.
