Descartes, Confucius, Crazy Dave, et. al.
I’m thinking, “it’s time to write something here for all of my loyal readers”. With both of them in mind, I’ll write about my philosophy, i.e., why should you buy from Crazy Dave?
There are many good invert sellers. I would say 99% are decent, respectable people that will satisfy most invert hobbyists. How can I rise above the others? Well, of course I don’t have the answer. If I did, I wouldn’t be sitting here in my Target brand boxer shorts early Saturday morning.
Alot of people take things way too serious. That doesn’t mean I don’t take my business serious, it’s that I don’t take myself serious (or is that seriously?). On one end of the spectrum, you have a shmuck in Florida that claims to be on the “Cutting Edge” of the hobby, yet the only thing he has accomplished is maintaining the “Cutting Edge” of minimalist inventory. I’m guessing about the only animals he has in stock are a breeding set-up of Aedes albopictus. At the other end, you have Crazy Dave, Purveyor of Bugs, Truth, and a chuckle or two.
Since a better in-flight meal is out of the question, what can I offer to my customers? Besides making an honest attempt to actually have in stock what I say I have (see “shmuck” above), my goal is that with every sale, I want the customer to be pleasantly surprised, to exceed their expectations, i.e., to whistle Zip-A-Dee-Doo-Dah from their nether region, thus coming back for more.
