We walked directly to the counter and asked for the specific item. Instead of showing us where it was, the older white man simply leaned against the counter, hemming and hawing for a full minute about "well, you can TRY that, I guess... But... I don't think it'll work the way you want it to." We legit had to stand our ground and ask one of the younger employees to Just. Take. Us. To. That. Aisle. Please. If either of our husbands had walked in and asked for that product, they would've been led straight to it. Bro, just get outta the way and let the women work.

This tubing is supposed to support the large steel wheel which is attached to my 23' long driveway gate. The total amount for the metal tube was $26.14. I found that the company which makes the tubing decided that it's ok to use a thin wall tube for this weight bearing application causing a very sloppy and loose fit. Not acceptable unless you are a company that does not care about the products you sell. I attempted to return the tubing at Payless Building Supply in Chico, CA. They declined to return it or even give me store credit because the cashier said it was special ordered. I have spent well over $5000 at this store for materials in the last few years.
