Incoming - BLNR
What a big surprise today for me. I was just going to visit my local AD to wish the one sales person that I have been talking to for awhile a Merry Christmas and this happen.

We were just talking in general about Covid and family then he asked one of his other sales associate to show me around the new store. Afterward he was showing me around the different displace cases and BAM, there it was. One of the watches that is on my wish list was in the displace case.

So, he was setting it up in the displace case while he has his sale associate show me around.

What a great Christmas surprise he gave me this year.

You're telling us the BLNR was in the display case?

Or he set this up to look like this for you?

No, it was not in the displace case. He has his sales person show me around while he set it up to surprise me.

That’s how I read it too, but no, a BLNR wouldn’t be in a window for “anyone’s taking”
