Colin Leake Posted July 20, 2011 Share Posted July 20, 2011 Great shame we bought our first Rapido there and the staff were great. Always found it one of their better sites. Not over staffed by none attentive sales personal like Newark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Peter James Posted July 20, 2011 Share Posted July 20, 2011 Not been to Swindon but I like the 'non attentive' sales personnel at Brownhills Newark. Strange as it may seem I tend to mistrust salesmen to sell me what I want, I prefer the freedom to look around, without being hassled by salesmen, and decide for myself. I have always got that at Newark. If they appear to be overstaffed by 'salesmen' walking around, I suppose thats necessary to stop people nicking anything. I have never had any problems with Brownhills. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robertandjean Posted July 20, 2011 Share Posted July 20, 2011 Agree it is a shame as it means people will have lost their jobs in a difficult jobs market. But if it means that it makes the remaining parts of the organisation viable then it must be the right move. Have always found staff at Newark very helpful and wish Brownhills all the best for the future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caddies104 Posted July 20, 2011 Share Posted July 20, 2011 Sad for the Swindon site, always a bad day when staff have to go..
