You can tell that KMart bought Sears

I bought a spray gun at sears 2 days ago for $109.99. After reading the book of instructions it was determined that I needed to purchase the 2.2mm spray nozzle to use the gun most efficiently. I went to the store again today and asked about nozzles for the spray gun. The gray haired man disdainfully informed me that they don't carry spray nozzles and walked off. I tracked him down, "Sir, this is a craftsman, I bought it here and it says that I need to buy this nozzle. Where can I get it?"

"Try the parts and repair place across town." He didn't give me a phone number, didn't offer to call, nothing.

I went to the parts place and of course the part numbers didn't match the almighty Sears computer (the Sears Department store had a better computer that might have been able to identify the part). Margherita was a good person and called several paint stores to try to find a tip that would work. She deserves a raise. Unfortunately, there is no nozzle in Modesto.

I will be returning the spray gun. (I bought one for $12.99 at another place that will probably be fine.
