    Sounds like the abuse got to the guy.

    Read on fb that Ravi confirmed the guy paid up what he owed today.

    For what its worth, still a scumbag though...

    Its a real C63. 2008-2010 MY. He was at a meet absolutely revving the shit out of his car non stop, accelerating through parking lots at WOT like a maniac. But from what I heard he paid for this job he probably could have gotten long tube headers installed. Anyway point is, guy is retarded, ruined a perfectly good C63. Owners like this make me regret ever owning a C63 lol.

    Well imagine if instead of writing that letter to the editor, she just posts on a car forum for car enthusiasts. That's Kritafo.

    SP even though at one point in my life I agreed with trying to be fair and honest in every thing that I did, I found it really hurt my bottom line. Do I do work for people I don't like? Weekly. Why? Cause their money looks better in my pocket. And having more knowledge in setting prices in a retail situation has taught me a few things. Like dick tax. If your a dick to me, you pay more. Why? Because I treat all my customers with the same respect. When you stop respecting me I increase my prices because there has to be some motivation for me to do the work. The tax can be as little as $20 or as much as a couple hundred depending on the situation. But as you move forward and gain business you can slowly weed out the unworthy people and have a client base that is great.

    Yea Im a contractor and I absolutely quote/charge more for eccentric/tough/dick clients - same with jobs I don't really want to touch.
    Its a free market generally speaking, which works well by its own, and thus the client has the option of taking their business elsewhere.

    SP makes it sound like hes dealing with an industry that has a monopoly on the market. In that case there is the possibility of gouging (eg. highly specialized service).

    there are plenty of shops in Calgary that can do exhaust work. just most would either laugh the guy out the door or charge a pretty penny to do it properly. the wiener who owns the benz found the latter; I believe the work is done to a better standard than most exhaust shops would do. regardless of how stupid it is (in my opinion) at least it wasn't done by some schmuck who doesn't know what the hell they are doing.
