Yep, when it rains it pours, standard operating procedure. The part will take 4 to 6 weeks to get here from China.

I had the missing parts problem on my shop press, took the whole mess back to the store, manager lady opened another box and gave me the parts I needed for mine and says "sorry " you had to make another trip! The stores really don't have any control over missing parts and missing parts seams to be a BIG problem. ---Shameless,--take it back, talk to the manager,--NOT clerks, about it. They should fix you up without any BS!

I would take it back, but it's a 70 mile trek to the store, if I gotta go back to that city for something else, i'll take it back then if I can't get satisfaction off the phone. the big tool box I bought from there, I gotta put the wheels on it. got it tipped back, the wheels on and now I ain't strong nuff to tip the box back upright on its wheels. PffffT! that's one heavy sucker! guess i'll hafta go to town and find a dude with a strong back and weak mind to help me!

Shameless,  do you have and engine hoist?

called HF in Ca today, was on hold about 17 minutes when I finally heard a females voice come on, I asked her if she was a real live person? I musta heard 25 or more ads of theirs while waiting. anyways...after explaining it all to her she says they don't have extra parts for that cabinet, and I should return it to the store where I bought it, said they might have a damaged cabinet there I can get the part I need or just exchange it for a different cabinet. I then called the store where I bought this one, told person there all about it and told them what corp. said. she said to bring it back and exchange it, I called them because i wanted to be sure they had another cabinet, they did and she said she'd hold it for me. I also asked if they would open up the boxes to make sure everything was there before I left, they said they would do that! sooooo...we'll see...

o-k...so I got the exchange and checked out if all the pieces were there. they were and off to home I go...AGAIN! started putting it together about 3 PM today, got it finished about 9 PM...that was a SUCKER to put together! PfffffT! it is a lot move solid with the 1/4 in bolts I bought to put it together with. but trying to put the doors on was the bummer! they have studs to go in holes top and bottom, and the top and bottom panels hold the doors on. try to hold (in line), pound, and hold the top cover down to put the bolts in all at the same time....PffffT! now I find there are no holes for the mounting brackets to bolt to, gonna hafta measure out and drill (self tapping screws) into it to hang it, I see i'll also hafta mount a bumper board to the wall at the bottom of the cabinet. I really should have a chat with the designer of this cabinet!

Old gal bought a green house several years ago. It took me a couple of years or more to get around to putting it together. Parts were missing. I went back to H.F. and talked to the manager. She took an employee out to the back warehouse and opened up a new unit. She gave me everything I needed out of that box. I told her I did not want to get her in trouble with corporate. She said they would repackage the box they opened, send it back as missing parts. It must happen somewhat often.

Yes that was a good call, as you've got to much cookin comin up for those honey do kind of things.
