touch up - dealer wants to charge me!

So, it's no big deal, hell it's only $3.97 (CAD) however, it's the principle. I just spent $24 000 for my Fusion Orange (Sunburst Orange in Canada) Vibe and the dealer can't even GIVE me a $4 bottle of touch up. I'm sure i've read other posts where the dealer gave them away. What gives?

I paid too. Wasn't the original dealership, though. Truthfully, I ran away from the original dealership because I was afraid that their stupidity was contagious.And if it's only $4, consider yourself lucky. I think mine (satellite) was $6.

Funnily enough, GM sent me a bottle of Lava Touch-up about five months after I bought the car...

I paid for mine and I worked at a detail shop. Those damn bottles are expensive. You're getting a deal at what you were charged.

Well, at $3.97, I can now have lunch (tax free in Ontario), as the dealer ended up giving us the bottle of touch up today.Hey, you know what, since GM equipped the car with the nasty Conti's, doing a bit to please me makes a big diff.Anyhow, hope everyone is having fun washing n waxing! See you on the roads.
