Lowes RANT!

Have been asking lumber yards and other places about Baltic Birch plyavailability getting mostly half blank stares as if they hadn't heardof it before. Recently went to plywood section of local Lowes andthere was a single slab of 1/2" X 5' X 5'. Asked where the rest wasbeing stored and wood section Mgr said that piece was special orderand walked away with it under his arm. There was a stack of 3/4" X 4'X 8' labeled Birch ply that had characteristic thin plies making upthe total 23/32" thickness that the Mgr identified as BB. Also some1/4" X 4' X 8'slabs were there and he said that was all they carried.Search of their site discloses "Not available at that store". I sentmail asking how it not available but it was there from special order.So far that is still open. Suggested in the mail they work up a queryoption by product name or category listing what items CAN be specialordered. They answered the mail stating it would be forwarded toappropriate people and they called at 7PM to say the same thing.

I must say. That cut me to the quick. I'd at least have thought you'd be grateful that I sunk to your level to respond. It must get awful lonely all the way down there.

I am pretty sure that I did not say that someone who gets tossed out of a Lowes or Home Depot has a dick - I believe I said that they WERE a dick - dick.

Wow Dave, Again with the childish crap. It's no wonder that you always ask for help with a project rather than give good advice. Lou
