☕️📖🕯 Business the American way - part 5 "Does everything seem in order", came the question as I scanned the bill. Careful not to give away my surprise, I replied, "Just the amount for rotary plasma work is still missing, but otherwise I would be ready to write you a check". Fortunately, he let me go without further inquiry. Back home, hundreds of miles away, I received the final bill by email with the rotary plasma work included. They had charged a fair price for that, but the paint job was still priced at twice what a good powder-coat job would have cost. I paid them $8000 for the paint job, and predictably, they were not happy. They sent email after email demanding payment, but I only responded by explaining why they had no right to do so. Apparently they made peace with the fact that they had made a mistake because they never did take legal action against me, and eventually gave up.
