when you buy plumbing parts at HD, make sure to LOOK at them. I just finished a plumbing job today that would have been done yesterday if someone at HD hadn't screwed with the parts. I had a 1 1/2" PVC union that was MISSING THE O RING.
































































The guy in the plumbing dept this morning told me to buy a new one, take out the O ring and then return the union. All well and good, but then it will just end up back on the shelf and the same thing will happen to someone else. Sucks pretty much.
































It doesn't end up back on the shelf if you tell the person at returns that it's missing an O ring and make them tag it as defective merchandise not to be resold.
































Suggest in the future that you buy plumbing supplies from a real plumbing supply store even if they are slightly more expensive as you will be supporting a local business who probably gives superior advice and service..
















Show me a plumbing supplier who's open on Sunday (or even Saturday afternoon), and I'll be glad to go there.








If you want professional help and quality parts then it's on you to rearrange you schedule. If you can't rearrange your schedule and recognize that people deserve their time off then you might as well get use to the **** quality/help that one most often gets at Home Depot.




What the **** is wrong with you Jon? I don't need any professional help buying a few PVC fittings. I need the goddamn union to come complete with o-ring. FWIW, I do buy from a plumbing supplier (who is NOT open weekends), and I have twice had to return defective parts.



Suggest you stop looking for sympathy with you whining, bull****, posts about lousy Home Depot plumbing supplies. If you're stupid enough to try and buy quality plumbing supplies at Home Depot you deserve what you get.

You're a moron with no clues. Now **** down and STFU.
