Salesman making me uncomfortable

Well I know I'm not being unreasonable but didn't know where to post.
Was looking for new carpet. Was just me and DS8 looking around. Salesman approaches to do his spiel whilst doing this i catch him numerous times looking down my top. Most women know what this looks like. Instead of looking at my eyes he was doing quick glances down to my chest. Its not even like they were bloody out!
I say thanks in just looking and carry on looking with DS. He continues to make comments about how I've got my DS helping me. I go to the front of the store to leave and some flooring catches my eye so I take a pic. He then comes up to me again and starts asking me loads of questions about how many boxes would I need and how big my hallway is. He for a very brief second touches my hip with his hand and walks in front of me to try gage how big the hallway is. He even gets out his calculator to do the price. I tell him numerous times I don't know the square foot and I'll think about it. Finally I leave.
He has put me off going back to the store now. Awful experience and made me feel so uncomfortable!

I said I weren't being unreasonable but didn't know what board to post it on

Creepy!! I have always been big chested and never have them on show but men leering down your top happens too frequently 🤢 don’t buy flooring from there, if you managed to get the name and make of the flooring buy elsewhere

No you’re not being unreasonable but please email a complaint in to the store - I’ve been a retail manager and if I was the manager there I’d want to know and would take action if a member of staff behaved this way.

Not only was he peering down your top he touched you too. And may well have done this to other women. He clearly has no morals and to do it in front of your son to is just horrible.

Please report this - both he and the store need to know this is utterly unacceptable.

Also blessed in the upper deck department. I go with 'They don't talk - up here for conversation' then they get the Paddington Bear hard stare.

If you feel uncomfortable, don't go back. A salesperson, at the minimum, should make customers comfortable enough to be able to discuss what they want to buy. You were made to feel uncomfortable, you're under no obligation to make excuses or to be 'understanding' to him. It's your money that will be spent - salespeople are not doing you any favours - spend your precious cash somewhere where you receive excellent customer service and don't give the matter another thought.

The funny thing is I'm not even blessed with big ones. I'm just short so he could easily look down at top!
Dw I won't be going back to that store. He won't be getting any commission or sale from me

From one encounter 40 years ago in my workplace with the boss who couldn't keep his eyes off my zeppelins.. "Do you mind not staring at my tits? I don't stand here and stare at your balls, do I?"
