I know a story where a customer in a bookshop asked for a book on how to be a better liar. The salesperson, with a quick wit, replied 'I'm sorry, sir, but all our books on that topic are currently lying.' This made the customer laugh and he ended up buying a different book instead.

A common retail sales horror story is about over - ordering. A small boutique ordered a huge quantity of a trendy item thinking it would sell like hotcakes. But the trend died down quickly. They were left with a mountain of unsold stock, which put them in financial trouble as they had invested a large amount of money in the inventory.

There was a story of an insurance salesman who went to a small town. He tried to sell home insurance to the local residents. One woman said, 'We don't need insurance. Our neighbors will help us if anything bad happens.' The salesman replied, 'But what if your neighbors' houses are also damaged?'
