They day I chuck it is the day they come back! I have a 3 month sign in the shop, saying after 3 months it gone! Nice to show them.

hell i fully agree!
in my workshop: an electric skateboard, guy contacted no reply received. (worth 600 plus and my bill is $120)
home theater amp. has been wet and considered unrepairable, wont even acknowledge messages so i have to clutter up the place with it
dashboard from a boat, wont answer messages
it cost me time ($) to keep contacting these people. today i repaired an amplifier that was a "rush job" end result " i will pick it up when i go passed next, dont know when"

time to go work for someone else again i think cos frankly the admin is bullshit.
