That sounds like most latin countries. You have to be patient. They're different from us.Originally Posted by texas_jack
No, not different at all really. The basic message "give us your money, screw you" is universal. The latins just go about it in a slightly different way.

Uh, what I meant was you have to be patient because things happen at a different pace and people sometimes have a different concept of customer service.

Right, that's the relaxed neopolitan way of life, enjoy your meal, enjoy your fitting, don't mix them up.

Using camera angle as an excuse for having less than an optimal body shape seems to be a new SF trend.Originally Posted by arnach

I went to Rubinacci with the intent of seeing Anna afterwards in Napoli and was thoroughly disappointed.Originally Posted by savvyibd
Unless you speak very good Italian, and can speak sartorial words in Italian, don't go to the store in Napoli.
I'm hoping London is better, otherwise I won't be a client. I tried asking the most basic of questions, three people could not talk to the tailor for me, and then they said they had to close for lunch when I wanted to get fitted for a suit. They said "come back". I left Napoli about two hours later.
I'm used to the "Oh you want to spend 3'000, let me get you a glass of wine and sit down" treatment, not the GTFO of the store and come back in two hours.Originally Posted by savvyibd
As for smugglers, yes, I was warned. And I should have known better as they worked for the Naples government.
Enjoy the reality bath you got at Rubinacci and learn to follow sound advice from friends.Originally Posted by pabloj
How's that copy of a French Provencal house coming? You savvy?
