Millionaire Playboy
like i said in another thread i figured out what the problems were with my holley carb (aside from the fact that i hate them and don't know how to work on them). i need a new float for the rear bowl and diapragm for the vacuum secondary pot. so i go looking through the jegs catalog and they have them at $9.99 for each.
a local chain (checker/schucks/kragen) advertises that they'll match any published price. so i take my catalog up there and pull the two parts off the shelf and take them to the register.
i ask the guy, "you guys still matching prices, right?"
him, "i think, hang on and i'll check. hey, [manager dude], do we still do price matching?"
manager dude: "um, ya, i think so. but i think we charge shipping."
what the feck?
so i can come in and pull parts off the goddamn shelf and they want to charge me shipping too?
i buy from jegs because summit put a warehouse here in NV so they charge me sales tax on orders. now, i'm a free market type so if it's between paying UPS $20 to ship something to me or uncle scam $20 in taxes, i'll give my cash to UPS. these crackers want me to give cash to both UPS (well, them actually) *and* uncle scam.
ya, go pack sand feckers.
