You know the shop "Toys R Us"? Well, me and my family had a little trouble there today. Here's what happened:
Well, I had got a new bike about three weeks ago. It was working, but the brakes were hard to pull.(The bike I tried in the shop was working fine.)
My parents said that it was only 'cause it was new. I then went to Locwinnoch(A place in Scotland) they worked OK, but weren't the best. I thought nothing of it and took it to school for cycling proficiancy.(I don't know if I spelled that properly.) They worked about the same as when I used them at Locwinnoch. When I was coming home, the back breake came on when I didn't pull it. I had to push my bike home.
That was last Monday. Today me, my mum, my dad, my sister and my nephew went to Toys R Us to exchange it. Me, my mum and my nephew went to the bike section, while my sister and my dad talked to the man.
I found a bike that I liked, £30.00 cheaper than the one I had too! My dad and sister had came by this time, too, while the man tried to fix my bike. Everyone said it was good, so we went to tell them.
When we got there, the man had brought it back, but the brakes were still bad. He took it for 25 minutes, we talked to my dad. He said this happened:
Man: Yes sir, it is your fault the bike is broken. We cannot exchange it, but we will fix it.
Dad: No, you see, I need another bike.
Man: Well, we can't do that. You're not a bike expert.
Dad: I don't need to be, to know those brakes are bad. I don't need to be an electronics expert to watch TV, do I?(My dad's like that, cocky.)
Man: You see sir, there's no electronics on that bike. (DUR!!!)
Dad: Can I get a manager.
Man: No you can't, he's too busy.
Dad: *Jokingly* Look, if I was outside, I'd scoop you one. (Uppercut, I think?)(At this, the Staff rushed to the desk, where the two were.)
Man: You're just a F*&*&*& W*&*&*! (O.O)
My dad was just shocked. Me and my family came then, so did the manager, with my bike. My mum said that I couldn't pull the brakes, which I couldn't. To cut a long story short, the manager phoned the police as my dad wasn't taking my bike and leaving. When the police arrived, they talked to us and the manager, then said they wouldn't press charges, but we were banned from that store. So, now I'm stuck with this lousy bike, that doesn't work, I'm scared to go on it, and we're banned from the store. We're going to another store tomorrow, to see if they could swap it. My parents said they'd call the local newspaper and tell them. My other sister said they were bad at returns. She said that people bought a pram, then a wheel broke on them, Toys R Us would take the pram for up to 6 WEEKS and the families had to buy a different one.
Thanks for reading.
