I have known several places say no.
My local staples said no when I wanted some bits of desk.

I suspect Staples would far rather you bought a new desk.

I've bought a desk from Staples before and I can confirm you're
better off getting one from a skip.

That supplier went bust in Dec IIRC.

What are you on?

I was going to ask that too, but then I thought would we really
understand the answer?

I suspect he means the supplier of the particular desk, as sold
through Staples - but as he's replied to the wrong post it appears to
read that Staples went bust.
Unless it's a particularly cryptic joke that refers to a skip as a
supplier...in which case I'd say the act still needs work.
