Super xia suay at kim tiam yesterday!!

As you all know, the gold prices is very high now. but still got ppl buying.
Yours truly was at a goldsmiths shop yesterday to buy jewellery. There were 2 customers being served when i got there. Being just next to them, I could hear clearly all their conversations with the shop ppl.....
SCENE A
This uncle was holding a thread-thin gold necklace (ie; very thin like sewing thread) and was asking for a hollow one. I laughed in my heart, "so thin already, still got hollow meh??'' (normally hollow necklace is for thicker necklaces). I could also see the sales lady's reaction to the request was like ''dot dot dot'' reaction. 
SCENE B This auntie was saying that the gold necklace she's holding is too long and was asking the sales lady to cut up into a bracelet. The lagi best part is that when the sales lady asked her what to do with the cut-away part, that auntie replied ''sell back to you loh, so that I can get discount" (trade-in). The saleslady gave a even lagi best reply, ''Why not you just choose a bracelet, which is cheaper?? The trade-in deduction and workmanship for cutting here & there will cost you more!''
MORALS OF THE STORY:
#1 If you've no money, dun even bother to step into goldsmitths shop!
#2 If you're no common sense, it's best to shut up and not make brainless suggestions! -

As for Scene A: Has it occured to you that Uncle might be asking for a Hollow Thick Gold Necklace? You know how people are nowadays ....trying to cut corners even during their conversations.

Scene B: Perhaps the craftsmanship for that necklace is what she had wanted and that even at loosing that bit of money on the trade-in deduction and workmanship is worth it!!! Afterall, it's her money and her choice...anything wrong??
TS, I don't really see anything wrong and certainly have a different view about your "aesop's" morals. Sorry to be offensive here, but I cannot help sense a little snobbishness on your part to have such a perception and moral. Besides, does minding one's own business means that this thread should not have its place here? I just wonder with my "bliss insanity" here. Look everyone will have his or her own perception but perhaps if we really look further than just skim the surface - it will certainly help a lot here.
