When should one be calling retailers for product questions?

Usually, the best time is mid-morning on weekdays as store traffic is less and staff members are freer to help you.

When I phone a merchant, can I ask to hold something?

Indeed, many stores provide the choice to keep goods for a limited period. Direct questioning of the store agent regarding their policy is ideal.

Should the store ignore my call, what should I do?

Try phoning once more either during off-peak times or after some period. As another alternative, find out whether the store has an email address or a contact store representative.

Should one ask for product recommendations throughout the call?

Yes! Store staff can direct you towards like-minded or better options and often have firsthand experience.

Should I not get a reply, how should I follow up?

Wait a sensible amount of time—usually twenty-four hours—then phone once more. Bring up your earlier discussion and, if at all feasible, ask to talk with the same representative.
