Only if he actually paid for working parts. He who buys cheap, he deserves cheap.

If I buy a part, I'm paying for a working part.

If I buy a million parts, I'm probably paying for an acceptable (to me) failure rate, which is probably negotiated as part of the contract. He who buys cheap, buys a higher failure rate.
