just had similar experience to heyseeds and yours last week with a golf cart dealer. Needed a ball stud for throttle linkage. Had the mfr p/n and found it online for $2 + $8 shipping. But, also online, found local dealer where it was $4 but drivable distance (25 miles). Had the picture of the part with p/n in local dealer's online catalog. Called them up, lady checked gave her the p/n and said "yup, I've got ONE left". Next day, called before I drove out and she said "yup, it's still here on the counter". Drove over. It was a DIFFERENT length threaded stud AND a different p/n. Told her it was the wrong one than what I had asked for as I had also seen IT in their catalog. She insisted it was the part for that brand of cart. Together we rummaged through a parts bin that had ball studs in it and I found the right part. She STILL insisted it was WRONG as she was writing up the sale and her attitude was that I didn't know what I was talking about but SHE did because she was the AUTHORIZED distributor. Took it home and it was identical to the original and fit perfectly. No harm done, other than a less than positive customer experience with that dealer. Will probably go elsewhere next time.
