My other big HD purchase was 2 of their biggest Husky rolling tool chests, model HOTC5623BB2S that weren't at the store. I was getting them for a buddy that has a backhoe and other construction equipment and helped me set up my current concrete pad, including burying a water line for my future bathroom in said shop. Eventually, he will insist on helping do the wiring and everything inside as well.
He didn't ask for anything besides gas money, but that wasn't going to fly. Paying a contractor for what he did would have been twice the cost of the tool chests anyway. I walked into HD, told the pro desk I wanted 2 of them, put it on my card, got the receipt, and they said to expect a call / email etc when it was on the way or I could track on the website. Done.
A week later with no word from them, I called the local morons and gave them the order number. A guy gets on the phone and says "You can't order that here". Well, "I have the receipt, I kinda did"... NOPE. I talked to the super, she said the same thing blah blah.
I can't remember which, but I called or chatted with corporate and they ended up voiding any transaction history with the local putzes, and ordered the chests through them, but I still had to pick them up from the local morons, which ended up being completely different normal non morons.
If the super had called me the next day and said I had to order online, fine, no problem. So that was what I did two years ago, not today, and I still ordered that mower from them because Lowe's refuses to carry good brands (Well, Cub Cadet Mower TBD).
