We see the same preparation and finishing mistakes repeatedly, and every one of them costs more than the saving that caused it.
The short version
- Buying on headline price and paying twice when it fails early.
- Ordering short and eating a second delivery charge.
- Ignoring the spec sheet because two products share a name.
- Leaving the contract rate unasked — it is almost always available on volume.
- Not confirming lead time against the site programme.
