Default Pick A Part pests

Evey time I go to pick a part I find a pest that never brings any tools for the part they want and I seem to attract these pests. Yesterday two guys came over asking for a flat head & phillips head screwdriver to borrow. This time I said mate I don't lend tools ask someone that does the response was thanks for nothing I replyed mate thats OK but if you's don't even have a screwdriver to remove a part go to a none self serve wrecker or a workshop.
Most have returned the tools I 've lent but once I lent a guy a 10mm combo spanner & he dissapeared out of the yard with it.
I only go to them for a part I want & have all the tools required for the remova plus back up tools in the bootl. I gather some just go for a look with no tools.
