Well, the folks in the orange aprons Borged me again.
I decided to buy the Dewalt 618 3-base router kit that the Orange Borg has on sale/clearance for $150.
I had the SKU, so called the local borg. They checked stock... and declared that they had 3 in stock, and confirmed the $150 price.
So after dinner I hoofed my way over. Found the one VERY beat up display model, but none on the shelves. Asked the orange-aproned worker for help.
Imagine my surprise when she said "Oh -- the ony one we have is the one on display"
I told her that when I had called they said there were 3 in stock.
Her response was, basically, that the computer stock count is meaninless and that I should have "asked for a visual" before I drove over.
She seemed quite amused with the entire situation. Ipm glad she enjoyed it; I sure was steamed. I had better things to do than play scavenger hunt at the big box home store on a Saturday evening.
So I asked for a manager. He at least made an effort to look around, but he couldn't find one either.
Gotta love the borgs.
