Maybe it's because you went to a small store without much volume power.
Home Depot or Loews would have hooked you up with a new one.

The large stores like Lowes and Home Depot suck too because everything is pre-made and application-specific. When I was working on a senior design project where we needed to machine custom parts it was very difficult to get raw material or stuff that wasn't already pre-fabricated.

I'm thinking he lives in Finland or something. Maybe Estonia.

If it were me, I would go directly to the store, find the manager and have a chat man to man. I bet his nards shrink when you are there in person and you should get it taken care of. If he still tries to play hardball, call their headquarters directly and start raising hell. If nothing else, they take care of it to make you go away.

We needed to buy some stainless steel 1/8" and 1/4" thick bars to make a scissoring mechanism and some other items but they would have stuff that was already in an L-bracket shape.

Sounds like maybe a machine shop would be a better bet. Home/hardware stores are good for what purpose they serve.

We would have done the design and sent it out for fab, but we were working on a tight schedule with a design by trial-and-error methodology.
