I've been spin'n um daily over 30yrs and have had the same experience from all mobile dealers, I had a couple broken Matco sockets in my box but hadn't seen a truck in the area for over a year. I was driving around from behind the shop headed to lunch and holy cow, There was a Matco truck sitting in front of our parts department door. I got all gitty and cought the guy (in a Matco shirt and hat) at the counter buying ATV parts, Told him I needed to swap some broken tools. The azzhat snapped back hatefully "Can't help you, I'm no longer a dealer" ! My parts guy seen his attitude and charged him 20% over list price for each of his parts then we went to the steak house for lunch.... Sears is 3 miles up the street and will get the job done.....
