I do a lot of work for a property management company. Asked me to quote [on behalf of a client] for a load of remedial work on a recently purchased property. I bid 1400. Landlord told me he wanted me to do the job for 800! Told him I would willingly do 800 quids worth for 800 quid!....however, if he wanted the 1400 quids worth doing it would cost 1400 quid! Needless to say I did not get the job! He engaged Mr 800 himself...it may have been a private arrangement.

Mr 800 did such a bad job that i have been back [my client will not even entertain Mr 800 and has told the landlord this] and my invoice was much more than the original 1400 . HAPPY DAYS.............. :coat
