damz Occasional Poster Location: Sydney, northshore Registered: June 2004	Re: National register of Dodgey Mechanics Wed, 16 June 2004 08:10 Yeah corona Im glad someone else agrees with me that Im getting screwed. He claims Battery = $140, plugs = $36, oil change = $40? and he ordered a new distributor cap which is $53 retail from toyota spares (and is holding up his work a full day extra). So total parts is like 270-ish. He claims he is "a professional" repeatedly and is charging me $70/hour. This is a small workshop adjoined to a service station, what a joker. At that rate he woulda had to work on it non stop all day today and some of yesterday - I asked if that was true and he says "yes..no,..umm, i did bits and pieces most of today and some yesterday". I told him my budget was 500-600 MAX and he didnt call to tell me when it was gonna amount to more than that. It's gonna be interesting when i go to pick it up tomorrow - i wont get my pants pulled down like this without making my presence felt. Especially when SSS are selling 1G-GTE engines for $750! Re: starting a register of bad experiences - surely they cant sue for defamation if allegations are true?! I suppose its not worth getting lawyers to prove whther the claims are true or not though.
