I’ve heard similar outrageous quotes and cost for window and furnace replacements.
We can’t forget that there are many honest people doing work for others, but how would the uneducated consumers know? I’m so glad that my path in life gave me so many learning and skill gathering opportunities.
I have a great muffler place a few miles away who have done great by me several times, offerings to weld in new sections rather than selling me a whole factory piece.

Bingo! Many seem to think nobody can do anything right but them and nobody’s labor is worth as much as theirs. There’s plenty of white collar crooks out there too. My 2¢.
