Went over and gave them the quote, and then told them, it wasnt about the money, it was about the principle....

They were very receptive, very apologetic, seemed genuine, and even went out and bought a nice flower and a $100 GC for us as an apology/thanks.

I'm satisfied, i think they learned from it, and i get a nice meal, and i don't have to stress about my cars or property being fucked up.... at least not by them.

you have to admit that was the absolute best case scenario and you got it. Could you imagine if you went dick mode and went straight through insurance.

Getting flowers and a $100 GC to get out of paying for a $650 repair is the absolute best case scenario? I could be reading it wrong, but it didn't sound like OP is getting the car fixed on top of that.

Didn't sound like he wanted to ever get it fixed, was just appalled by the lack of respect

Its about RESPEK Thaco already said he wasnt too worried about the repair since it was an older car. From the start it sounded like he just wanted some acknowledgement from them that they caused damage and it looks like he got it so for him that was the best case. Now y'all finished or y'all done

not really, it could have been PDR'd for a couple hundred at worst. I see it as an investment because if they stayed pissed, i'm sure they'd have cost me a lot more than the $650 and i wouldn't have been so lucky as to catch them next time. and they may have caused damage to something i actually cared about.
