I know this has probably been talked about on here, but has anyone fell for the door to door meat salesman? I cant believe my parents did, they even let the creep in the house. Now they have 200 bucks worth of shit, its not even good. How do people fall for this?

They find gullible people who like to be cheap. Once they find the people, they pounce and don't let go.

Sorry, OP.

I could see if it was just expensive for what you get, but this was legit awful, terrible taste terrible texture, and when my parents told me the rant he told them i was pissed

I've had that stuff before. For every good one, there's 20 terrible ones. My grandparents fell for that Omaha shit and it's awful. The one I tried typically sold to restaurants and it was pretty good.

this wasn't Omaha, the guy basically said he had prime cuts that he was delivering to a local resteraunt a good one he name dropped, and say they were over capacity, and had to unload these for bargain prices instead of driving back an hour to drop them back off at the plant. He said it was cold and winter, and they would get plenty use out of them etc...

Yeah that sounds like a scam. When I had it, I was at the restaurant he was delivering to.

Sorry for your loss (of freezer space)

They obviously aren't really delivering to a local restaurant. It's all lies.

They stopped by my office one day a couple of years ago. I started to chase the crook off but one woman at the office was interested in what they were selling and made me leave them alone. I walked away shaking my head.

If they actually give you the name of a restaurant, call the restaurant up and ask them if they really buy such crappy product from crooks liie that.

>door to door meat salesman?

My nextdoor neighbor, a young guy and new homeowner, fell for it this past summer;

NEIGHBOR: “Hay, have you ever bought meat off one of those door-to-door trucks?”
ME: No way! It’s probably spoiled or poisoned or from cows raised in Chernobyl, lol!”
NEIGHBOR: “Oh… because I just got $100-some worth of steaks from one…”
ME: “Well…. I’m sure the guys you bought them from aren’t… scammers.”

I wouldn't even bother. No self-respecting restaurant owner would buy meat from some shady door to door salesman selling out of the back of their pickup.

My folks didn't fall for the door to door meat salesman because that's retarded

However they are retarded enough to fall for the encyclopedia salesman
