>My local vw mechanic ( that I have became friends with) and I were talking the other day about the amount of times he does estimates, etc....for free. Often times he does not get the work, for he is very thorough, and will not do a halfway job.< Unfortunately, this is true of many businesses... I run a video production company and while I don't bust my knuckles, I have spent many hours doing bids for people who don't even respond when the quote is presented. It's just part of the job... you win some and you lose some. Have to agree however it can be frustrating.
