It's been awhile so as a refresher to everyone, I'm a cell phone sales drone. 
These two instances with the kind of customers we get in store amuse me to this day.
The first one happened to my manager, the second one to my co-workers in one of our sister stores.
Can you put my SIM in this?
So, the customer comes into the store. Turns out she broke her phone, and wants us to put her SIM card in this other phone she brought with her. The only problem is...this phone isn't real. It is CLEARLY a display model. Stock photo print on the screen, non-opening battery cover and all. As if that wasn't indication enough that the phone was fake? It had a sticker over the back cover that says, "Non-Working Display."
This phone isn't working!
So in our sister store, we get a buttload of crazy cheap ass people. That's not to say I don't get my share of crazies in my new location, but up there...it is just exhausting.
Anyway, the "customer" throws the phone on the counter and has a fit about how they bought the phone and it never worked from day one.
Turns out- about a week prior to that visit, the "customer" had lifted a display model from the rack. They tried to act as if they had purchased it so they could get a working one for free. (they were laughed out of the store)
