Dave, I know you and I believe you and I are pretty much on the same page.

My comments were not directed at Vintique. I know that for the most part, they peddle crap. As such, I chose not to purchase anything with their name upon it.
I bought the aforementioned hood supports from Carpenter expecting to receive the "typical" (from my extensive experience) quality part.
To top it off, the guy at Carpenter readily admitted they knew of the issue with the supports. Then, to NOT reimburse my return shipping?
Yeah, we all make mistakes and those of us that run ethical businesses accept the responsibility for said mistakes.
