Rapha, nice but a bit pricey?

Walking past the shop yesterday I thought I'd take a rare look inside.

I don't want to tar all their employees with the same brush but every time I've been in there they are almost laughably rude. While I was waiting for a spare changing room there was a chap in front of me trying on a jersey and getting some 'advice' from the helpful shop assistant. He was between sizes. The smaller one was perfect across his shoulders but a bit tight round the midriff. The larger one fitted his midriff but was too loose across the shoulder. The helpful advice from the shop assistant? 'you could lose some weight'

Comically rude.

I should clarify. I like their gear and wear it, but I buy online to avoid that place

It's May, and the customer is buying 'performance roadwear' but carrying weight around his middle..... It sounds like refreshing honesty from the rep.
