You have GOT to be kidding me

I just spent the morning calling glass repair shops to get an estimate to repair the window broken on my car. The first place I called told me the price for the part – the tiny, little, triangle window that does not move – was $417.63. I just about messed myself.

You see, I paid off my car about a month ago I decided to sell the car and buy another. Then I found out I wasn’t going to be able get the car I was planning on buying so I called my insurance and asked to return my policy to full coverage. They told me I had to drive the car by a shop so someone could look at it to prove there was no damage. Before I was able to get by the shop, my window was smashed. I called the insurance and they confirmed I have to pay.

I spoke to a few people who told me they had their entire windshield replaced for a couple hundred bucks, so I was thinking the cost to replace my window couldn’t be more than a hundred. WRONG!

After calling the first place I called four others. The estimates got a little cheaper, but the best offer was still $300. Then I talked to a few people who told me to call a shop out on South Union. When I spoke to the woman, she asked me what the best offer I had so far. She came back a little while later and told me they’ll do it for $136.00

I don’t know what they’re planning on using to replace the window but at this point I wouldn’t care if it turned out to be wax paper.
