The idiot factor is much higher at the Norcross store.  If you ever 
find yourself doing business with them again I recommend Marchond or 
Scott at the Marietta store.  There is also a gentleman named Bob 
(Burrus?) who transferred from Marietta to Norcross - he is also a long 
time employee.  None of these guys would have jerked you around that 
way.  Frank (manager of Marietta) isn't exactly mister personality, but 
I don't believe he'd have screwed around like that either.  Perhaps you 
could relate this adventure on one of those customer service cards they 
love to stick in the bag?

I too am willing to pay a little more to buy locally and get some 
service.  It is a shame that this approach doesn't bear much fruit 
anymore.<sigh>
