Maybe you don't frequent these kind of places frequently, I do not know, almost all car workshops have this kind of jack, it is very normal to jack it up, most will do it FOC. If you don't jack up the car, how to check or fix. If you can type like this "BTW you need to buy a pack of cables ties (can't buy single one), similarly screws come in a pack - so maybe you will have to spend 10 bucks on the cable ties and screws." PRECISELY I Know all the workshops have got this ties and screws, I just feel you are not flexible enough, it is very hard for you to survive in this tough society. You will find life a lot easier if you know the right people. Also just to share: Not everything cost money even though the service is there. Do you know when a car break down on the expressway, one can call for tolling, it will cost around 50-90 bucks, or can wait for LTA free tolling service too, the destinations maybe different but it won't cost you a penny. Tolling? What toll ah? 🤣 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It just make people to think one is more stupid. I think ur intention is good but u must understand that mcfers don't buy cars with loan. 10kpm celery is poor. So most people here can't even smell 20bucks. Jokes aside, I do find 20 bucks for a simple job is high but not ridiculous. I usually go back to my usual workshop for minor stuffs and they will do it foc when I pay for their other services. Just build a good rapport with a few good ws and you will find your life as a car owner much simpler. But it is what it is. U have paid 10 bucks more than you expect. Just don't patronize this shop anymore. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jamesc Hypersonic October 12, 2023 Share October 12, 2023 When buying always complain price too high. When selling always complain the price too low. These people can never be happy! Wonder if TS is a Carouseller that always lowball people! "Fast deal bro $10, take it or leave it!" "I am not so stupid to be a carrot head!" 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hamburger Hypersonic October 12, 2023 Share October 12, 2023 Let's agree to disagree. TS feel cheated. So be it. Most Mcfers felt no biggies. Ok then. End of discussion. All all live happily ever after. 1 5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamesc Hypersonic October 13, 2023 Share October 13, 2023 I agree with TS! When I go for massage and they massage my head why they cannot massage my other head free? It's a free job right why must charge extra? It's all my body parts right? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamesc Hypersonic October 13, 2023 Share October 13, 2023 Looking at TS logic why COE so high? Why over 100k? It's just a piece of paper right? 10 cents is more than enough! I am not a carrot head just like TS! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamesc Hypersonic October 13, 2023 Share October 13, 2023 Why petrol so expensive? It's free right? Just pump from the ground? Why Saudi make billions? I am not going to pump petrol any more. I join TS and don't be a carrot head! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamesc Hypersonic October 13, 2023 Share October 13, 2023 (edited) Why TS always go different different WS? As someone already said they don't want to see his face. If TS always do his his servicing at one WS this kind of job they will do free one. Why TS don't want to ask the cost before doing the job? Because he wants free lah TS is not a young first time car owner naive newbie wet behind the ears. TS not happy to pay go other WS lah. Oh TS always goes to many many WS already. TS is not doing a favor going to these WS. They don't see him they are not going to close shop. Maybe very happy not to see this kind of customer Edited October 13, 2023 by Jamesc Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamesc Hypersonic October 13, 2023 Share October 13, 2023 Very easy to spoil the reputation of a business. This shop lousy that shop lousy. But TS every think or not? Is TS a million dollar customer? He don't go to the WS the owner lose any sleep or not? If I am the WS owner TS don't come for his free jobs I sleep better! TS can only see his point of view. Not happy he paid $10 extra. He cannot see WS owner's point of view. Never come and do service wants this kind of jobs free! Grow up be matured and see both sides lah. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamesc Hypersonic October 13, 2023 Share October 13, 2023 (edited) I think all my posts are the same! No not MIL lah! Its people only see their own narrow point of view! All the reckless driver videos is I no need to queue I just cut in but other people cut me I not happy. Or I must drive right lane, I get on expressway everyone must brake for me so I can swerve 3 lanes to lane 1. When I want to get off everyone must brake for me so I swerve from lane 1 and cut chevrons to get off. Everyone must do for me free or give way to me or let me cut in or I must go first etc etc This is why we become an ugly society from a beautiful and gracious society.

Everyone got our high limit and low limit. $20 for a free job is high. For me, $10 for a free job is high man. But someone buying alcohol 1 litre $1k plus not high. Fact is fact, someone pointed to ask before doing. Good point. I point to - If the job is free, can do by yourself. Last trip, I went back and change all the false ceiling lights (5 pcs) by myself. Cos they are not as bright after years of use. I go NTUC buy and just fix up, one pcs cost $3.50 only. Then wifey complain I have lots of dust from ceiling falling down. I also Du Lan. Free also you comprian arh But this thread is not so good, targeting the individual WS. Hope Mod can do something. Maybe common title lah Aiyah you changed lights only. Should just change the wifey as well then won't hear complaints.... 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamesc Hypersonic October 13, 2023 Share October 13, 2023 It was not a free job! It was never a free job! If it was a free job TS would have done it himself! Save himself $10! TS true or not? If you can do yourself you will save the $10 right? TS no hoist only. Need to go WS. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
