I suppose you might be, having suggested it. But good service needs no
hype.

How is a new customer supposed to know that Ruth offers outstanding
service if she doesn't point it out? Repeat customers may not need such
a description but new ones have nothing to go on.

If you were selling a turning would you not talk up the quality, details
or uniqueness of the turning? After all, the customer ought to be able
to recognize all those things without a word, yes? I see nothing wrong
or untoward in letting a customer know the effort and care that goes
into the item they are purchasing whether it's in the making or the
packaging.

Does anyone else see my point or am I hanging off my own cliff on this
one?
