I showed the 'clerk' the s-wiliams 1-gal can, and she said: "We don't have that brand". I pointed to "Sherwin-Wiliams" printed on can, no response. Then tried another approach by asking her the price of the paint. She replied she can't tell me, that I would have to contact the store that's on the label on the can. The label is from another S-W Store. "What the Heck?" Not being able to reason with her, due to her limited "Customer Service Ability to adequately explain herself, I left disappointed in her lack of care. Got home, called the phone # on the can, turns out to be store in is in Sunnyvale. Told my story to the polite gentleman on the phone, and was able to get a $ price! He couldn't understand why the Mtn View store couldn't serve me. Bottom line.....Don't go to Mtn View store where they are "Customer Service Challenged" .Go to Sunnyvale, where customer service seems to mean something.

I brought in my door trim for them to match the paint, and they immediately told me they couldn't do it because there was shimmer in the finish. I explained that I didn't need the shimmer -- I just needed the closest base color. Then they said no one (the color technician) could work on it until Monday. But if you're not the color technician, how can you confidently tell me what can or cannot It's clear they don't want to help and don't care whether someone is a repeat customer or not. I drove all the way from Los Altos to Cupertino for this, and honestly, it was a complete waste of time, unwillingness to help & give me this "I don't care" doing business with a repeat customer made this a very disappointing visit.
