I left a 100 dollar deposit with my local Macco. But they made good on refunding it..it was just an inconvenience and lesson.
I brought a car in for a paint estimate on the front end and was quoted $400.00 and told the paint would match since this was my PRIME concern.
When I brought the car in for the work 2 weeks later some other guy told me it requires 2 or 3 stage paint to match and it would be $1200.00
I said there is no way I am paying 1200 dollars, give me back my deposit... and in an INSTANT...he said he would do it for $600.00. Drops the price 1/2 like that so quickly....odd??
But nope, I did not succumb to a rip off..I was quoted 400...you do it for 400..or I go elsewhere and refund my deposit please. But much to my surprise these days.. they refunded the 100 with no further fight..I only had to sit there for an hour or so before being acknowledged..needless to say..
I went elsewhere and got a beautiful matching paint job for 350 dollars, same day service in and out. Sometimes it pays to shop around.
