I always think I've lost a piece or that one is missing when I'm building a new
set. I'm just paranoid like that. If I can't find a piece right a way I
actually have these very minor panic attacks (my heart rate picks up slightly,
nothing major). I've never been short a piece though, in something like 50
sets. The closest I've come was one of the Ice Planet sets I got awhile back .
. . the set had a pair of wings and instead of including a right and left, it
gave me two of the same. I simply returned it to the store for another one.
    In a side note, I once bought a plastic model kit (one of those ones that
you have to glue together) and there was a piece missing. Something small and
not terribly insignifcant. Anyway . . . I wrote to the company, requesting a
replacement part and they sent me another complete model, sealed box and
everything. How's that for customer service?

(...) Cheaper than finding out what part it was, exactly, that Idiot Customer[1] lost, finding it, and sending it, presumably. Jasper [1] No offense to you personally, but if you've ever worked in a customer-facing situation, you know what I mean.. (25 years ago, 14-Dec-99, to lugnet.general)

I bought a 8299 Search Sub on discount yesterday and the pneumatic workcylinder was leaking right the first time I used it. I replaced it with one of my own, but will call LEGO Benelux monday. Rengenier (25 years ago, 27-Nov-99, to lugnet.general)
