Seriously, no offense, but pick up the phone. "An" average doesn't mean squat if the shops around you can't come close to it. So call.

Shops were open yesterday and they're open tomorrow and the fact still stands that when you call and the first shop is $175, you're going to call another which totally negates the 'need' for this thread. And if the next shop is $140 and that's the cheapest around, what again was the point of this thread?

Shops were open yesterday? ok? Clearly I wasnt curious yesterday. the point of this thread is to find out what the ballpark is for such a job and between what you and everyone says, its obviously under $200. thats information I didnt have 60 seconds before I started this thread, for all I know it was a $500 job.

There is one more thing I am curious about though, whats more pointless, a thread that potentially could have been avoided by waiting for a shop to open the next business day, or posting TWICE as to why you think the thread is pointless AFTER its been posted?

Well, since my response isn't an actual thread, I'd say your thread was more pointless since it was the catalyst for useless posts. I'm not the only one giving you 'useless' answers either.

You really that slow? You asked the above question, I answer it and then you retort with "5,4,3,2,1...". Your logic and this thread make total sense now.

If the thread is pointless why is it still in your recent topics? why are you still checking it? you either dont think its pointless, its the most interesting thing in your life at the moment, or you have a crush on me. I made the thread to find out what I can expect to pay, and I got my answer. under $200 is expected. thats what I needed, for ***** sake you are pushing 30 years old and you are on here acting like you are in middle school.

I guarantee your're going to be the predictable little monkey you are and post again, but it looks like I have to be the adult here and just ignore you since I already got my answer and let the thread fall off into oblivion. seriously though get a life.

&lt;--*removes thread from recent topics*

Oh...now you're going to remove it from your recent topics? I just don't bother removing topics because when someone asks questions, of me no less, I'd like to answer them. You've done that in every response of yours.

This was a couple responses ago...and you came back. Interesting.

You're 4 years younger than me. Does that allow you free reign of asking pointless questions? Stupid me, of course it does because when you're pushing 30, you just wait the next buisness day and call to get relavent pricing in your area.

Then again, you'll never see this since it's not in your recent topics.
