grin grin funny but true!

grin, yes nah.

Just like some of us could afford to enter bike, give the bike man N200 and he says he doesn't have N100 change.. some of us could afford to say OK, keep the change.

Some of us, can't, we will go shop to shop looking for change. And are ready to risk their life by throwing blows if they didn't receive their change.

All fingers are not equal.

Here’s the only way to know if the quote is too high. Tell the contractor that you’re fine with the quote but you’ll like to supply all the materials and happy to pay his workmanship.

Let’s have his feedback.


________

I guess the price he gave is Abuja price cos a generous me won’t pay more than 50 - 55k for a 1200 x 1400 casement window with burglary and net.

________

The only way you can get a better deal is by getting an option quote. I wish we have a verified window contractor on kobocity.com, I’d have recommend one.

There is much we can do.
Put a link to her business thread here.
We will visit her thread and ask he questions on your behalf.

You will also need to explain your own side of the deal here, what and what happened and how it went sour.
Her own side of the story is also important, so we will give her an opportunity to stat her own side of the story.
Then we will make an informed opinion and advice.

We can follow a fraudster to hell, if we need to, and expose their fraudulent nature to all their potential Clients.

BTW: Your user-i.d is new and strange on this thread, where did both of you consummate your business and why do you think we should be involved, at this stage?
Just want to know.

Edit: I noticed you just registered this user-i.d today, Jan 30?
Do you have another i/d you used in transacting business with her? Why are you not using that to make your case?
A one-day user-i.d makes me nervous

I settled a matter like that last week at New Garage. I was parked waiting for someone when Okada pulled up with passenger. Guy gave him N100, Okada says its N150. Like flash, Okada has put his bike on stand and locked shirt of passenger. Passenger who is bigger than Okada rider carry Okada rider from ground throw am. Over N50 o shocked

I gave Okada N100 to go while telling both that if they had Covid that they have just shared with each other over N50

One thing I can say is that be careful on what material they end up using. If you squeeze too tight they'll just use inferior profile.

Good luck.

PS: I'm doing windows now and I may end up buying the profiles myself and just paying for assembly.

My way.

In my last project I bought 5mm glass for all the windows and the guy who assembled was like you're getting this quality because you got materials yourself.
Most materials sellers don’t even retail 5mm glass.

There is no need to flood the entire page with your personal conversation with her. Call your bank, file a dispute on the transaction. Your bank will deal with her, with BVN and NIN those days are gone when people play this attitude of blocking number after collecting money.
