John -
I notice that he has a rather appropriate last name!
Don't bother letting it get your goat... He's just lost a sale...
well done mate! I notice that he didn't give you the part number.
If you want to make a point, send his email back to him and ask him if
he thinks he made a successful sale with his response to your fair
question. Also ask him what the part number is, because that was your
original question.
Don't give him credence with a foul mouthed reply... keep it professional.
Cheers,
Alan
