Did you go in the shop? Or did you call them?

Have you test ridden anything yet?
Thank you!

I went in and he physically ordered it into the store, told me he would call me and I've called and nothing, no avail to my questions. I was shocked since he seemed really knowledgeable and concerned over my standing height (as I hadn't even thought of it). That was over two weeks ago, and nothing. I'm shocked!

I went into a few shops actually, and have seen different ones. I was waiting for the two to come in from the shop I described above and taking those two, plus a HT out on a run before making a decision. It's so odd! It's to FS versus a HT for me. I'm a graduate student, and as this will be a large investment for me I have taken my time.

Thanks for asking any suggestions on things I should look for in a store, or ask?
