[QUOTE="fasfocus00, post: 8362233, member: 576857"] people who discount their labor do so b/c they know their labor isn't worth more. I am definitely one of the higher priced installers around here but they know they are getting someone who knows the score. I had a guy with a Mercedes get quoted $125 for a radio install and was quoted 1hr or less. I quoted $250 for the same install but I told him what was different about his car and how it needed to be installed. I told him to go ask the other shop if his car is any different than a radio in a Honda Civic. I showed the guy pics of previous installs on his exact vehicle showing him what I was talking about. He comes back a couple hours later after he talked to the other shop to schedule a time for his install and offered to buy me lunch b/c he felt he insulted me by questioning my knowledge and price. I let him buy me lunch and showed him a bit more about the extra precautions I take during my installs to assure him his car is in good hands. [/QUOTE]
