You realize that there's probably a reason they're wrapped that way right?
It's funny that you'll take a stand on something like a $200 part and refuse to do business with a supplier but you don't understand why the same business took a stand to protect their policies and investments.
The only place I won't go to is chick-fil-a. I don't agree with the way they publicize their political stance. But if I was hungry and that was the only place to go, I'd go. My face likes my nose, sometimes cutting it off in spite is dumb.
it works both ways in the parts department. we has parts people get screwed over everyday. in this situation i mentioned, the VW faxed me a pic, i picked the part i needed, the guy ordered the wrong part, then admitted ordering the wrong part, and refused to take it back and send me the right one. they were 15 mins down the road. the guy i use now is no where near as close, and comes here for a 2.00 part. that guys stance on a 200 part cost him 10's of thousands of dollars. it was a stupid move.
i deal with a lot of other dealers, and most of them tell me i have a damn good return rate. for the most part if my guys screwed up and order the wrong part they use it anyways. but if i order right, and you send wrong, and refuse to take it back, we got problems. i have only put the X on 3 dealers in 14 years. i like to build trust worthy bonds with these guys. i am not jumping around from dealer to dealer because they wont take back a part. there has even been plenty of times that i threw away a part just because it was not worth my time.
my wife said the same thing about the plastic baggies. but really, i cant think of why these pucks in side a 5 gallon sealed bucket must be wrapped in individual packaging. maybe there is a reason, maybe not, but it is that easy so buy the one next to it with no baggies for the same price.
now if that was the only chlorine in the store, yea i would buy it, my stance is not that strong with this. but that VW dealer, each person i talked to treated me more rude than the last. the will never see a penny of our dealers money.
