/ Home centers are designed for the \
| do-it-yourselfer who's willing to pay |
| higher prices for the convenience of |
| being able to shop for lumber, |
| hardware, and toasters all in one |
| location. Notice I say "shop for," as |
| opposed to "obtain." This is the major |
| drawback of home centers: they are |
| always out of everything except |
| artificial Christmas trees. The home |
| center employees have no time to |
| reorder merchandise because they are |
| too busy applying little price stickers |
| to every object -- every board, washer, |
| nail and screw -- in the entire store |
| ... |
| |
| Let's say a piece in your toilet tank |
| breaks, so you remove the broken part, |
| take it to the home center, and ask an |
| employee if he has a replacement. The |
| employee, who has never is his life |
| even seen the inside of a toilet tank, |
| will peer at the broken part in very |
| much the same way that a member of a |
| primitive Amazon jungle tribe would |
| look at an electronic calculator, and |
| then say, "We're expecting a shipment |
| of these sometime around the middle of |
| next week." |
