&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Since King Streets&amp;#39; revamp as King Street MkII in Jan 07,&amp;nbsp; we have tried to be a bit less &amp;quot;formal&amp;quot; than the sterotype, whilst still maintaining the level of customer service B&amp;amp;O aspire to offer globally.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Despite the odd bad day, which every shop/business/person around can have from time to time, I would assure everyone that B&amp;amp;O dealers in general, and B&amp;amp;O HQ over in Denmark do have an overiding ethos of &amp;quot;customer first&amp;quot; - it may be a cliche....but its still a fact that no customers=no business.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Its nice to hear apreciative comments - I&amp;#39;ll pass on your thoughts to those involved.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; Might even run to a mince pie each &lt;img src="http://forum.beoworld.org/emoticons/04.gif" alt="Stick out tongue" /&gt;!!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Thanks again &amp;amp; Seasons Greetings,&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;David.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I have written at least three photo&amp;#39;threads on &lt;a href="http://forum.beoworld.org/forums/p/11546/86289.aspx#86289"&gt;visits to King Street&lt;/a&gt;, but unfortunately the pictures have been lost when we upgraded to CS2008.&lt;br /&gt;Beoworld party tomorrow, but when I come back on Sunday, I will endeavour to replace them.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;PS, I sent you a reply to your email, check it&amp;#39;s not gone into your spam box.&lt;/p&gt;

I&amp;rsquo;ve loved anything B&amp;amp;O since I started collecting around 5years ago but until today I have &lt;span style="text-decoration:underline;"&gt;never&lt;/span&gt; received the B&amp;amp;O retail experience.&lt;span style="mso-spacerun:yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0cm 0cm 0pt;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:16pt;mso-bidi-font-size:12.0pt;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Times New Roman;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0cm 0cm 0pt;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:16pt;mso-bidi-font-size:12.0pt;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Times New Roman;"&gt;My own local store, Cryers of Rossendale are so complacent and arrogant towards its customers that I have always felt uncomfortable and very self-aware even to be in their store!! Not to mention the fact that I placed an order for 3 Beocom 6000&amp;rsquo;s and I&amp;rsquo;m still waiting for them to call me back!! Oh and I&amp;rsquo;m also still waiting for a Beosound 5 demo, Beovision 7 demo and a Beocom 5 demo!!! Not to worry because I&amp;rsquo;m pretty sure they think when you go to buy an Aston-Martin the sales staff should stop talking to you, shush you and then take a incoming call!!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0cm 0cm 0pt;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:16pt;mso-bidi-font-size:12.0pt;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Times New Roman;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0cm 0cm 0pt;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:16pt;mso-bidi-font-size:12.0pt;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Times New Roman;"&gt;I was recommended King Street by a friend and I&amp;rsquo;m very imprested with the level of care and customer service given. At first I couldn&amp;rsquo;t find the store so I rang I asked for directions. I was close but with the help of the staff &amp;amp; given real time directions on the phone I found my way to the store. I was then amazed to be met by a member of staff and given a parking permit to park up outside the store in the middle of Manchester of a Friday morning WOW!!&lt;span style="mso-spacerun:yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0cm 0cm 0pt;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:16pt;mso-bidi-font-size:12.0pt;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Times New Roman;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0cm 0cm 0pt;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:16pt;mso-bidi-font-size:12.0pt;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Times New Roman;"&gt;In-store it was even more impressive to find people that love and understand the B&amp;amp; O product as much as you do!!&lt;span style="mso-spacerun:yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;I spoke with a great chap who&amp;rsquo;s knowledge of the product is second to none and even when his phone rang 3 times in a row, he NEVER even thought about answering it!!&lt;span style="mso-spacerun:yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;He continued to answer any questions I had and demonstrated 4- 5 products to me.&lt;span style="mso-spacerun:yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0cm 0cm 0pt;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:16pt;mso-bidi-font-size:12.0pt;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Times New Roman;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0cm 0cm 0pt;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:16pt;mso-bidi-font-size:12.0pt;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Times New Roman;"&gt;My only reason for visiting King Street today was to have the battery in my Beocom 2 replaced.&lt;span style="mso-spacerun:yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;I would say it&amp;rsquo;s a real shame to have to travel so far to find great customer service but when you do its no distance at all. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0cm 0cm 0pt;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:16pt;mso-bidi-font-size:12.0pt;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Times New Roman;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0cm 0cm 0pt;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:16pt;mso-bidi-font-size:12.0pt;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Times New Roman;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
