"You shouldn't be buying a new product because the old one has worn out. It should be because you come into the store and say, 'Wow, I want one!'. You should come here and want to buy some- thing." Oakville Appliance and TV makes it easy to develop that urge to And Boam's world is also one of excellent customer service, deep product knowledge and great value for dollar. races within the industries for supremacy, of fascinating break- throughs.

That process guarantees the con- sumers expert advice when they walk through the doors from Kerr Street. And at the other end, in installation, follow-up and repair. Boam is able to maintain control. Oakville Appliance and Television does its own delivery. and except for warranty service. Boam has repair people either on the premises or working for him out of truck and albe to do the work promptly. As for warranties. he notes with a chuckle, he is such a large volume dealer that Boam has assembled experienced and knowledgeable sales staff to serve the customer on the floor, and he notes that each of them, like Boam himself, has spent time behind the scenes learning about the prod- uct. The owner worked as a televi- sion engineer in Britain for 12 years before coming to Canada in I967 and then spent another five years upprenticing as an appliance repair- man before assuming ownership of Oakville Appliance. "Most of out guys selling appliances on our floqr have been on the truck delivering or in installation. They learn from the ground up," Boam notes. "We make - - . . our orders Television by the car- ------ load," he said, referring, to train cars. "When I buy washers, I have them shipped from the factory down in the States. There's no third hand, no warehouse, no distributors, no-one else raking it in." The customers of Oakville benefit from those efficiencies because they are translated into low prices. The appliance business is highly compet- itive, with very little profit margin for the retailer, so when the middle- men are cut out, there's a significant saving for the consumer. c o n t r o I . 80am deals directly with the manufac- turers in many cases and so is able to save precious dol- lars in ship- ping costs.

A line of new Zenith televisions, with their Advanced Video Imaging tech- nology and 800 line-screens, offers such a vivid picture that a babbling brook looks like it is coming right out of the screen. To Boam, these products are more than just brand names he hopes to sell to the public. To him, they are shining examples of what the engi- neering profession is capable of pro- ducing in 1993 - and a visitor to the store starts to think that way too.
