I hate wrong specifications in shops. I've ordered some feet, thinking to raise a table about 2-3cm and, in one fell swoop, protect the floor against scratches.

"Height of feet: 2.5cm."

Perfect. Ordered.

Now they're delivered, and the height of the feet is actually only 8mm. They've included the length of the screw in the height. Idiots. What do I care about that? If the screw is 1cm, 2cm, or 30cm, that doesn't add anything to the height of the feet themselves.

The specifications should have been:

"Height of feet: 8mm. Length of screw: 17mm."
