Yes, and it is not just the auto parts stores. I had a very similar conversation at the local Case-IH dealer here. I was trying to purchase something as simple as an O-Ring off my hydraulic pump (could not match from standard off the shelf sets any parts stores had). After spending an hour the parts guy said "I can sell you a new pump". Of course I asked, and his response was over $600. I replied that I was not going to spend over $600 buying a pump when a O-Ring would repair what I have. I finally drove nearly 100 miles to an old dealer which the parts man had worked for many years. He dug out microfich, and looked at a book or two, then went in the back and emerged with the O-Ring in question. The good news is that since the O-Ring lasted approx. 60 years I doubt I will have to go through that again, but I spent over half the day and drove well over 100 miles to purchase a O-Ring that was less than $2 (and overpriced at that). Ironically the parts guy at the first dealer had just commented to a co-worker how this was his last day working there. So that likely had some bearing on his motivation to locate a part for me.
