Some years ago, the car I then owned developed a fault, whose
repair called for one small part, rather as with your adventure.
I went to the dealer's spares department, waved the dead part at
the man and asked, "Have you any of these?"
The man sort-of-grinned and went into the back of the shop. He
came back with a box large enough to hold (eg) a soccer ball and
set it on the counter. It was half full of the little beggars.
"Yes," he said, "we these go wrong quite often."
When the manufacturers don't bother to wrap them individually,
you _know_ they're in demand.
