Those are the ones you dump.
I changed a CRT in a Toshiba Rear Projection this week (45") made $165
on it. Could have gone Ice Fishing, but that $165 will come in handy at
the end of the month.
I would rather work "cheap" then not work at all. When you are
self-employed, you do not have the option to collect Unemployment
Insurance.
As I said...I wouldn't take on ASC's today, but I kept the one that
treats me respectfully and is willing to pay a fair price for my effort.

Being a ASC fills in for the slow times. How? It would be like taking
in a
job knowing you are going to lose money. It doesn't fill in for slow
times,
it is like doing free work in my opinion. Time you factor in parts
ordering,
learning curve, claims processing, rejections, service lit.
subscriptions,
no training, and 1/4 COD rates, you are losing money. You might as well
work
on nothing. I tell my customers "Don't buy new: It's Cheaper to Keep
Her".

Russ;
You haven't paid attention.
You don't get rich being an ASC anymore. But it fills in for the slow
times.

Like I said, it was in warranty.
How do warranty servicers make money?
