Always get an estimate!

No way should you have paid this bill... regardless of failing to get an estimate. You should have told him that there is no way he can justify that amount and to keep the items.... The guy is clearly a con man.

Personally, I think it's a great shame that Bob has had this experience, regardless of the reasons behind it.

Agreed, very stressful.

I think you should negotiate with him before paying up. As others have said, he should have at least warned you from the outset it was going to be an expensive repair. Faili g that he should have contacted you during the work to advise the cost was mounting up and did you still wish to continue. If he just left it until the final bill that in my book is sharp practice. Unless of course you told him to fix them and included the words 'time and money no object' in which case you have no option but to pay.

Have you ever been driving down a road and it suddenly dawns on you that you must going the wrong way, but if you keep going because it might be the right one just around the corner? Well, that was my brain fade state with these two cheap bits of pressed steel because I was paying at each stage of the process. Still can't believe I got sucked into it, just like a alcoholic or gambler waiting for their next fix for whom I now have the greatest sympathy! :'( At no time did I expect the cost to rise so high and the guy doing the work didn't bring up the probable final cost, but now none of you will be likely to fall into this trap, will you! :o At least the 6 rubbers supporting the underside of the seat only cost me £45.00 from our friends in Holland. Time for my tablets, I think. ::)
