+$600.00 vs $285.00

Which is a better deal? It would seem like $285. Right? Well, not if the company that will charge over $600.00 quoted you only $39.00 plus “$15.00 & up” and then I told you $285.00 honest and up front! That’s what happened today. I know this because the customer showed me her notes and I saw the name of the company and it was one of the illegal locksmiths. I know that they mislead people into believing that their locks need to be replaced. (The customer told me herself that she did not know if she needed new locks or if  her old ones could be serviced.)The locks that this customer had were very expensive Baldwin locksets that cost nearly $200.00 each.  She became very angry with me when I told her the price of $285.00 to disassemble and make keys for these locks and  I became angry that she was comparing me to this dishonest company! Maybe I should start using the same misleading tactics that these companies use! If I am to be disrespected then I should at least get the money!!….Don’t worry, I will never lose my integrity. :)
