NEVER buy from Hopelessly Pathetic again?

To make my little anecdote even more amusing, after about 2 hours of
bring handed off from one group to another and back through the same
groups, I finally got one guy who spoke "blokin Ingrish" who told me
that the 4 screws are a separate part number -- 665925-001.  So, off
to the Hopelessly Pathetic Parts Store again. 

Are you ready this???

$37.00 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

H-O-P-E-L-E-S-S-L-Y   P-A-T-H-E-T-I-C ! ! !

Needless to say, I'm NOT making that purchase.


Sheesh!  And people here are complaining about the price for VMS???
