Maybe you didnt give them a clear explanation of what you need...

3" mild steel tube bends are pretty easy to get.
90 deg, 45deg, 180 deg or straight!

Or you can go through their bins.

Tube bending are awesometown
Not really set up for retail tho, which is why I didn't recommend them first - unless you know what you are doing then they're not really that user friendly

They take cash.

They aren't going to design your exhaust. What's so hard about saying I want a 3" 90 deg bend in mild steel :S
Never had an issue with them over the last 5 years.
