Default ford logic?

so i went to ford and ordered new valve stem oil seals, 16 v cossie.
So why the fook do they only sell them in packs of 5
meaning two packs of each and 4 spares
They must think like a woman

he wont split em as there not a stock item, after 2 years then then bin the stuff that aint sold, easier to just pass the cost to the customer, make more money that way too

Yep .. The dealer ordered incorrectly ...

Or the picker (like he did for one customer) bagged up 5x BAGS of some clips .... When it should have been 5 clips (one bag of 5)

So he paid for 5 .. and got 25!

We were talking about charging dealers for Rapids this week .. When they send in queries without checking the Library, where most of my answers are.
You seen all mine in CAK/CAP 4180110 and 4180115 ? lol
Look for my initials at the end AJK
A few of mine are tongue-in-cheek humour (like some of the entries in the old Fiesta Library)
