Isn't it a lot more fun to go to the Mom and Pop Hardware and Tack Supply
Store?

You get to talk with Morry (insert the name of your favorite hardware
geek), and he calls YOU by your first name, too.

He'll guide you to what you want, or a very plausible alternative.
(Mainly because he knows his ****.)

And when you need a part for a faucet that was discontinued 20 years ago,
he'll tell you to go down the basement steps and look at the rack on the
left. When you find it, there will be some dust on it, the price sticker
has faded and you can barely make out the 79¢ it is marked and that is
what you will pay in spite of the fact it is the last one in existence and
would go for $25 on Ebay.


I see you know Morry.
