What you have a pricing discussion with a vendor and it goes like this:

Me: How much is this part?
Them: how much is your budget?
Me: I'm making the budget based on price quotes from multiple vendors.
Them: quotes high price
Me: Seems high
Them: What did our competitors quote you?
Me: goodbye

I was trying to! I have a good distribution channel through @SKR 's onlyfans subscriber list, but seems like I need to find another supplier.

On a serious note, it's hard to get prices for a lot of things. I'm not even trying to get anyones best price, just thier normal everyday price, and it's like pulling teeth most times.

That's because they just make up prices. How much is your budget? Well look at that, we're 10% under!

[Brent.ff]

Like the bozo dealerships that just ask 'whats your monthly payment budget' 'oh perfect thats exactly the monthly cost... oh dont worry about how many months'

Yeah, and not like I haven't made up prices once or twice for customers too, I get how that game is played, but a well organized company has a standardized price book as a starting point. Even those auto dealerships hve a published MSRP to start from.

That is what happens every time I buy pipe. Tell them they lost, ohhh we can do a little bit better. No, you should have priced it better initially maybe.

Highway construction workers are probably the dumbest people in the known world. I wrote a big long thing to make my point, but decided it wasn't worth it. They're just so fuckin stupid, all of them. If you have a moment, watch them. It's fascinating just how stupid a person can be, and still inhale and exhale, and run a shovel or hold a sign.

I always figured road construction would be a good job. Low stress, fresh air, get to watch the diggers.

You and I have very different ideas of what "fresh air" is.
