I agree on the torque specs but I stand firm unless your getting physically burnt plugs like the ends melted off your not having problems due to boost/ EGT etc.

As you suggested I may just try getting them from another supplier.  Kinda sucks though I get them at cost from work.  Then again if I wasn't replacing them all the time I wouldn't care if I had to pay retail!
