Or the time my boss sent out one of the interns to the hardware store to
fetch some "elbow grease". He was pretty mad when he got back from 3 or 4
hardware stores after the last one he visited explained what it was. I think
he quit a few weeks later too. Too bad we can only imagine the chuckles of
the hardware store clerks.

The expression popular with me is "For that price it better have lips!"
I used that line once over the phone when quoted a high price for a bike
fork rebuild kit. The kid on the other end of the phone said"Just a minu=
te,
I'll check with the owner." Major laugh from the owner in the background.
He and I are old friends and still laugh about the kid's naivet=E9.
