Am I right or wrong???

Ok so I was on another site yesterday. I noticed a person had a hood for sale with the 72 style snorkel hood scoop. Well the scoop was off. I was only interested in the placement of the scoop on the hood. I noticed all the holes were drilled and scoop holes cut. It would be a perfect template. Well the guy wants to charge me for a temp- plate plus shipping. Not alot of money either [less than 15] I know a persons time is valuable. With that said I also know that guys on this site including myself are always willing to provide info or pictures when needed to help another person out. Heck, I have given parts away to users of this site and others. I am always willing to help where needed. I dont know but for some reason this rubbed me the wrong way. Should it?? Its not that I wouldnt be willing to pay for it [of course shipping] I just thought that being a fellow member he might have helped me. Im sure I would have returned the favor at some point. Am I being to cheap and petty? Give me your thoughts on this even if you think Im wrong. Thanks.
