the company had only made display models. The store
racks were filled with empty boxes. Nevertheless, 12
customers came into the store and chose the colors and
styles they wanted. The customers were asked to come
back in the afternoon, while Van Doren and Lee rushed
to the factory to make their shoes. When the customers
returned to pick up the shoes, Van Doren and Lee
realized that they had neglected to have money
available to make change. The customers were given
the shoes and asked to return the next day to pay for
them. All 12 customers did.
