Comment on Marketing Doesn't Work on Nerds

I wouldn’t say immune, I just have a low tolerance for unfounded claims, and little interest in most of the impulse purchase junk that most ads are trying to sell.

Give me an ad for good tech at good prices (and actually list the fkin price), and I’m interested.

Like OP said, if there’s no price, just a “call to get a quote” or some other similar nonsense in place of a price, then I’m either not buying that product, or I’m buying it somewhere else that they list the damn cost.

“Call to inquire” can be adequately translated to: we want to sell this shit to your entire company, call us so we can convince you to do just that" meanwhile you want to buy one so you can check it out to see if it’s even useful because marketing claims are almost always bullshit.
