"Dogs and Indians are not allowed"

Dogs and Indians are not allowed; I heard this phrase for the first time in a Hindi movie titled “Mard”, then I came to know that in colonial era many British Raj offices and clubs used to have this board outside their gates. Now I want to put this board outside my Webstore, but eBay policies stops me from doing this. Well you might find it strange but I really feel like putting this board outside my webstore and I have strong reasons to back my feelings, and here is why:

Roughly 10% of my total gross sales come from resident Indian buyers, 75% are westerner and 15% are Non Resident Indians. Now first 10% of sales seldom get completed as many of the buyers are new to online buying and are very cautious, and I take it very normally as being an Indian myself, I Understand their psyche. 75% of sales which comes from my western buyers, and I don’t have single instance where a sales goes uncompleted, and based on my personal experiences I can easily conclude that the morality is very high among westerner, they are very honest and simple. Now the remaining part the 15% which comprises of NRI’s [Non Resident Indians], they feel they are the supreme, no matter they are filling gas at some remote station of US of A. They consider every Indian product as cheap and every Indian person a cheaper. Their modus operandi is very simple, they will buy something from you store after a good bargaining, they will pay promptly and you feel it was a good dream sale. But this dream turns to a nightmare when you get a mail telling you that the product is not good and quality is very poor and they want their money back otherwise they will complain to PAYPAL or eBay authorities and threatens you to put a negative remark on your feedback page, and you succumb to their blackmailing. Latest entry in this list is Maansi Shah from US of A. She did the same thing. She wanted a sari for some marriage party and contacted me, and closed a deal on my eBay webstore. She got her sari, she wore it to party [One of my other client in same area told me this later] and after the party was over she lodged a complain with me that sari is very cheap and wants her money back, I succumbed to the blackmail and refunded the money. This is my 28th bad experience and I very strongly feel that eBay should allow me to put a board outside my webstore that, “ DOGS AND INDIANS ARE NOT ALLOWED”.

Flying High...

Well I remember Tudu [my Guru] gave me this book and it taught me the strength of my thoughts, ideas and mind. today I expanded my horizons little more and started my operations in Australia, just remembering the time. " you are never given a wish without also being given the power to make it true". Now reached almost worldwide and the new idea has born "Dress Code", will tell you more about it later.

ADi.
