What do you mean they didn't get to sell it. They will get the insurance money, pop out the dents, buff it out. Then the add will go something like this " Mazda RX8, 1.3 Rotary, Save gas with this fuel saver. Slight hail damage, price reduced"

So I was at Home Depot today picking up a few things, and I thought I would try to find a small plunger to remove a door kiss someone left for me...

Anyway, a sales associate comes up to help me just as I find that none of the plungers will fit the job, and I explained my situation to her. she says "Well, we dont have any plungers smaller than this - Do you think Draino would work?"

Dont use Draino to pull dents on your 8 :o)

I hate it when they pull crap like that at the store. I went in to Home Depot to get something to take scratches out of a stainless steel dish washer, and they guy was like, well we have this stainless steel spray paint. Looks just like the real deal when its dry. FAIL
