From what I have read on Yelp! and other comment web sites, this guy is a bad businessman. He treats his customer poorly, if you can trust the comments...
I wandered the store, bought nothing, and had no trouble with any one. I was greeted, friendly like, when I entered...and after a few minutes, was asked if I was looking or anything in particular. I replied I was just "tire-kicking"...he walk away, and let me be.
We exchanged greeting as I left.
