damz Occasional Poster Location: Sydney, northshore Registered: June 2004	The end result Mon, 21 June 2004 13:25 OK in case anyone cares here is what eventuated. I went to pick up the car with my mate, mechanic starts trying to rattle off as many things he did as possible, I ask for an itemised invoice which he has done half-arsed. He shows me his own personal list of parts costs which amount to about $250. Its clear he's done work that wasn't necesary (just tooling around becuase he cant figure out whats wrong with it). But bottom line is, his reaction to my issue with his pricing and work made it clear he couldnt justify it, so I tore him off many pieces of my mind and my mate who was with me just ended up goin "look mechanic, you either argue all day or take 600 bucks which is what the budget for the job was". And he took the 600. Still a rip off. Note to people getting stiffed: It is ILLEGAL for any person to remove/tow/tamper with a car left on private property. Threatening to leave the car parked in their driveway for months on end is a good persuasive tool if they believe you;'re stubborn enough to follow through with it. [Report message to a moderator]
