I always find it amazing that people call salespeople rude when they do not find that they are going to give things away.
As you state you are not buying at the moment therefore you are not a sales prospect. They should not waste too much time on you.
Secondly you said you went in thinking you were going to get a screaming deal. Maybe the builder has a different strategy to wait things out. May or may not prove to be more profitable then giving away home or taking a loss.
The bottom line is that regardless of how you look or are dressed if you want to see what a salesperson can do put down a pre approved letter form the bank and that will warrant their time.
Otherwise if you are a looky lou than just be content to look. Nothing wrong with that.
