[QUOTE="wc9922, post: 339643, member: 6000"] Some workshops don't like customers who buy all the parts themself and ask them to fix only. I can see their point. Not only the sense they don't make the $$$ on parts but also if the parts brought by the owner is the wrong item, it takes longer to get the replacement by the owner and total time to finish up the job. Also the issue of who to blame when things go wrong, the parts or the installation? If I was the foreman, I will also say your parts are faulty lor. Kasi ajar sikit. Maybe they quote you RM800 is to drive you away from their place. See if you are tempted to the bait. Probably the do not want to do your business on that basis and rather than say no, they give you a price outside your budget and you go off by yourself. Ever thought about that? In the case, the items are rare parts (i.e performance parts, special order etc) fair enough that the owner sources it as it saves the hassle of dealing with the order with the stockist. [/QUOTE]
