I literally had this happen multiple times working as a vendor at sci-fi cons in the 1990s. Our prices would literally be right there and people would point to each one and ask how much it was. And my boss wouldn’t let me tell them that the prices are right there and point to where the prices were because my boss was a dumbass. In so many ways.
The thing is, for about 50% of those people you could talk to them like they were three years old and they’d be glad someone was communicating on their level for a change. The other 50% would think you’re the idiot. But they still wouldn’t read the sign.
