Jan. 6th, 2025 05:07 pmI went and got my oil changed this afternoon, and, while I was there, I asked if they could replace the burnt out bulb in my headlight. They did, no problem.
But they charged me $75 in labor to do it.
That's outrageous!
I've been to this place before and knew they were sort of pricey, but today has made me realize just how pricey they actually are. For that price, I might as well have taken the car to a dealership. *sigh*
Anyway, I am now driving around with two functional headlights.
After I left the garage, I went by the Store to work on the Great January Book Repricing. Jorg was there, busy processing that comic collection he got in yesterday. Apparently, the prices on some of those books was higher than he had expected. One is selling for $8000. *SMH* Collectors are nuts.
I did a case of the Fantasy/Sci-Fi books, then decided that was enough. I just wanted to come home and muck about on the computer.
