> he declared he would not be buying the $300 espresso machine he had come in to buy

FWIW I strongly doubt that people who say things like that ever really intended to buy the thing. If you were really planning on buying a $300 expresso machine today, are you actually going to change your mind because you had to wait an extra 5 minutes?

Oh I don't doubt it at all. Especially if all he had to do was go into any other Starbucks, or even Best Buy, on his commute or errands.
