I think at the price of the home call ($69), he probably was only interested in
that,
so he inflated the repair cost to "scare" her off from the repair job. If we
were all
making ($69) for a home call, we could afford not to fix anything and just
collect
money for driving around, We average about 15 stops a day, so at $69 a call you
can
see where this is going. What's this shops name? What state is this from? I'd
have
the attorney general's consumer protection division check into this if I lived
there.
We're all in business to make money, but $69 for just driving over there
(unless he
uses a helicopter or something), doesn't seem right,,,is this a true story?
