Man Goes To Discount Tire Needing $100 Part. Then A Worker Steps In And Quotes Him $1,500: 'I'm Not Going To Touch That Unless...'

A man frustrated by a recent Discount Tire visit never explicitly told the far-younger service clerk helping him to butt out. But he probably wasn’t far off from using those exact words in response to what he describes as a fairly clumsy and blatant upsell attempt.

The video from @cozumelcarr goes into detail about his stop at a neighborhood Discount Tire to pick up an air-pressure sensor for one of his tires, at a cost of about $100. In response, the clerk, who he estimated to be 18 years old, suggested the new sensor would only work if all the vehicle’s tires were replaced. The price: $1,500.
