Danco plumbing repair parts REPLACED in new storethat open late Aug 2012, with a line that is about three times kore expensive, and about 50% less extensive. I couldn't even find a generic $2.99 shower arm in their new product line offering. The sales person on the floor said ""oh yeah, we are the trial store for the new brand"", basically. Danco plumbing parts have been the mainstay plumbing repair brand for the last 50 years ! It is an economical alternative to full replacement of fixtures, and now Home Depot is trying to remove it nationwide ? The new brand Home Depot carries is a lot less extensive, and a lot more expensive. Like the Philips-only light bulb fiasco that they created for themselves about ten years ago, when they started to carry Philips light bulbs ONLY, then reversed the decision some time after that, apparently they haven't learned about ""lessons learned"", and the value from past mistakes. Egos are wonderful devices for making idiots appear as geniuses...
