I am not complaining about the internet anymore than posters come onto the internet to gripe about LDS owners I respect my customers wallets and pocketbooks, I only ask the same in return. I do not run at MSRP, nor MAP and I am not trying to drive a new Lexus every year. Sounds like your LDS offered the best he had and that you came him an honest crack at the business, which is more than fair on both and all anyone could ask for. I do have a business plan that tells me a formula for my pricing based on my expenses and revenue and that is the number I need to stay in business. I try to offer those small services like fitting, assembly and swapping out hoses, etc., to add value for my customers.
The industry is really in a state of change right now and mostly for the good I feel. But we will see how it plays out.
