They should have stopped, and asked themselves "is it right to charge this guy $2,500 for mirrors", and got you on the horn for approval. Something doesn't smell right. You sure they didn't use solid gold? Complain. Raise hell. Don't stand for it.

If you can't get anywhere, and you're stuck with them, is $7 a nut really a big deal, after what you just spent?

Some people are like Slinkies... not really good for anything, but they still bring a smile to your face when you push them down a flight of stairs.
