[QUOTE="ken2m, post: 245201, member: 7269"] I was working with a locksmith on a Sunday morning and we got a call from a guy in Carlton at about 2AM, he had locked his keys inside his rented house. seeing we had just finished another lockout we decided to do the job, we were passing his front door on the way home. We arrived and quoted him a price of $275.00 which he was ok with. The locksmith was exceptional at his job and after about 15 seconds he had opened the door, he said to just make it $200 as it was easy to pick. The guy then said to him "I'm not paying you that much for 15 seconds work" the mistake he made was to have not entered the front door before saying anything. The locksmith quickly closed the front door with everyone outside. Insert customer expletives here. New negotiation stated $300 with credit card payment prior to starting. He insisted he wasnt going to pay until we pointed out that it was a Sunday night and he had already rung several locksmiths who werent interested in opening his front door. It was the most fun that I had ever had on a lock job. Laughed all the way home. Ken. [/QUOTE]
