ECN Forum Forums General Topics of the Trade Business Related Discussion Flatrate?And what about the guy selling the jobs?

OK, I'll admit it...

I think charging $585.00 to replace 3 receptacles with GFCIs is outrageous.
Last year, an elderly man approached me in the supply house and asked me about the job because he thought $585.00 was too high. When he declined, he was charged $40.00 for the estimate.
I understand we live in a capitalist society, but really, it just seems awful expensive to me.
