Ok LPF. I need all of your opinions. Either I cam losing my marbles, or someone in Arizona already lost them. Please read these series of emails, and tell me who's not wrapped tight. Please be honest.
I was looking online for some pen boxes which I could use to house my laser pointers. I cam across this decent little box.

So I said to myself "Sweet, let me just send the site manager a quick email to make sure the box is wide enough to house a pointer. Here is what transpired.

Hello, I had a quick question in regards to the following product.
Arizona Silhouette Pen Box-Maple-Recessed Lid [AZPB-RLid] - $7.10 : Arizona Silhouette inc. - Suppliers of Eye Candy, Proudly Offering Exceptional Products and Resources for the Wood Turner
I was wondering how wide and thick of a pen this case could house. I have a
pen that is slightly larger than usual. Thank you.

Hello Christopher,
I'm sorry but I cannot help you on this. Too many variables.
Me
Can you at least give me the inside dimensions?
Website
No I can't.
There are custom inserts made for specific pens that we carry and if you have a pen that we don't stock then it would be a guess.
Me
What about the dimensions for the inside of the box?
Website
Chris,
You don't seem to understand the problem.
There are thousands of different sized pens offered for sale. It is like asking that you have a Chevrolet and you want it to fit into a garage. I cannot recommend the size of garage needed without knowing exactly what model of Chevrolet you have.
Me
I understand what you're getting at. However, you're selling garages
on your website. I'm inquiring about the size of this garage so I will
know whether my Chevrolet will fit inside of the garage that you're
selling....
Unless I am not seeing something on the website where I can specify
dimensions at checkout that I'm just not seeing?
End of emails.
If you all visit the website, you'll see there's nothing there that specifies the dimensions of the box that they are selling, nor is there a form there in which you can customize the dimensions. At first I thought he thought that I thought that I was inquiring about the cut out size of the foam, which is why I asked about just the box specifically. So am I missing something here? Or is there something in the water in Arizona?...
