First you're stalking me by cruising my forums (similar to those progressive guys joining one shopowners church to find the dirt on them), then you chirp and dance thinking your sleuthing skills outed me. And now you are considering calling area shops to check on me? Now that's bordering on harassing Lori. Give it up! Your friends are worrying about you and frankly I am too.
Mike you have gone and lost your pee pickin' mind! No one stalks you, you repeated source and ask us to read the posts on ''your '' site....more over, I was sure you would infer that EVERYONE in Joplin got paid for the operations you do...so no biggie, I'm sure there are some drp shops for my company in Joplin that I could call and check..period..re: outting you? seriously? You send us to this site, that you post using your own name, how in the world is that outting you? You've lost it brother...

Lori, did you mean rescind or resend, cause I would be happy to resend but not rescind?
You should be ashamed of yourself, really...

Mike I truly hope that this enternet presona is just that, and not the real Mike you come off as a self serving, self promoting, gradizing, truth twisting, little bitty man...I feel truly sorry for you, if this is not just an enternet persona that you have developed for trolling perposes..

Mike,
I don't think what other shops charge for or write on an estimate should have anything to do with what another shop charges for-not all Ins. Co's charge the same rate. Besides if all shops charged the same wouldn't that be price fixing? Not to mention possible Anti-trust violations. Ins. Co. need to pay for the procedures to repair a vehicle back to pre-accident condition and need to get over the fact that some shops educate themselves and have learned the P-Pages of the very soft ware the Ins. Co. request or use themselves.

i will say this, that i am not fond of insurance companies but as an individual and taking away the insurance company from a claim, i would find it unfair for me to bare the complete cost of a new tire when the tire i collided with was worn badly. so in this case i understand the insurance companies view on betterment.

Most new policies state that the insurer may prepare an estimate based on manuals used in the industry and based on competitive prevailing rates in the market. Well we could argue as long as this post is about who sets the market and controls it and how it relates to price fixing. Insurers have a legion of excuses why they only owe what they estimate the loss to be. If repairers actually knew cost accounting and did not rely on the insurance industry for the bi-annual 2.00 raises and knew the cost of their doing business with a reasonable profit margin built in and posted that rate, then you could actually do a survey and obtain a prevailing rate.
