And occasionally pain.  I picked up an HP scanner (fancy, with paper 
feeding), that was only retailed in the US.  When the unit turned out to 
be faulty, the store owner didn't want to follow HP's standard "dealer 
will swap for working" policy.  (He was riding on a US dealership, 
shipping equipment over.) I eventually had a very loud discussion in 
front of an entire store of customers before swap the scanner.
