... As long as it is black

You can choose any colour you like as long as its black...

This is what happen recently when I want to ask someone to "tailor make" a home office unit for me. We went to this shop and we show the shop assistance a drawing and dimension of the furniture we intended to get, he then explained to us that the furniture can only come at a particular sizes. We than ask for some cupboard and shelves...Again the same answer.. "this can only fit to such and such size and that can only fit to such and such size" At the end we looked at what they have come up with...guess what it doesn't fit the room dimension at all...

what is the point of tailor making furniture then...
