I'll buy something in a box and before I get out of the store I notice that the box is smashed on a corner. I'll go back to find one without a damaged box and when I get it home the product doesn't work. I end up going back to exchange it and the only one left is the one with the damaged box. I have help unboxing it in the store to see if it is damaged. It looks OK so I take it home and the thing works great for about a month and then it takes a crap. I want to bring it back but can't find the reciept.

Parts guys give me the wrong parts, or it's the same ...but different. Sometimes I wonder how people do it when they don't know what they are doing...Or do they save the bad parts for those guys who look like they might know what they are doing so you come back confused and befuddled?

Aaaaaaaarrrgh!
