Back a good many years ago I ordered a light meter from one of "the usual suspects" in NYC. It came in a couple of weeks later. The magazine ad I had ordered from said " XYZ meter with case". When I unpacked the box I found myself the proud owner of the XYZ meter and a lens case. I thought it was a mistake, so I called their "customer service" number and talked with a very curt man who just said "where in the ad does it say the case is for the meter?"
