My take is to just be real glad you can get the part and work out the order as best yiou can. Nothing wrong with paying $16 for a needed part if you can not order something else at the same time. Reminds me of my father in law complaining that the "postage costs more than the present". I am part owner of a small busisness. It is expensive to keep small, seldom used, parts in inventory.

Time is money! Two trips to the HW store, 20 min. Each? In my book you spent that $16 shiping cost the first trip to the store! And had nothing to show for it. Suck it up and stop spending time on such a small thing,

have it delivered to your door!
IMO.

My time is cheap. It is the gas used running back and forth to the store for that 50 cent piece that I need to finish a project.
