Same. Though, I’ve only ever been chastised for asking for too many of a single part.

Actually, I remember it vividly. It was probably back in like 2008. Little high school me had just taken over my dad’s failed attempt to bring back a garage sale find back from the dead, so I called him and ordered like 10 pieces of flexstone (at the time, I had no clue how much I needed, or if it would wear out quickly, or whatever. All I knew was Clay’s guides at the time referenced it constantly, so I thought I’d need a boat load.)

He snapped back “what do you need all THAT for!?” And I said sheepishly “uh, it’s for a Gottlieb 2001.”

After a little back and forth, he placed my order for all that flexstone. I’ve only ever used like 3 pieces, and only because I lose it in the game, and don’t have the energy to go digging for it, but then find it like a year later when I’m fixing something else that broke. In the end though, he was right, and I still have that little baggie full of strips of flexstone. At least now I’ll have all the flexstone I’ll ever need in life lol
