... and haven't we all had that, or a response that infers that mindset !
It's why as a matter of policy, I never disclose in detail what I've done to repair stuff (when I'm in commercial mode)
I wonder if they extend the same logic to surgeons, whose only cost (in their eyes) would be a length of catgut ?
