Ah yes, I've fallen foul of that a few times. Before I got into the
habit of 100% inspection of everything, I was particularly ****ed off to
drive 15-20 miles to either of the nearest sheds, buy a pre-packed
something then arriving home to find that somebody had opened it to
remove the one vital screw/washer/bit that could not be substituted with
a generic part out of my toolbox.
