I did read your review and have no agenda, sounds like sour grapes to me. You had your tuner worked on without a previous estimate, then complained about the price because you already had an amount in your head on what YOU think it should cost. Now you think he took advantage of you because of your age. Is that about it in a nutshell? I don't think it was a fair review!

The sum of all this is quite simple. If you cant see it , I cant help that. it doesnt take much vision. $212 is simply a rip off for replacing 2 bulbs and a piece of wire. Do the math. All other subjective/personality/ageism issues are really irrelevant . Obviously you have some sort of stake in the business or enjoy playing devils advocate and fail to see with any clarity the lack of ethics exhibited by charging so much. I cant help you see this. Apparently the incongruity of the cost of repairs when comparing a complete AUTHENTIC restoration on a Mac tuner as compared with replacing 2 light bulbs on this tuner is not clicking for you. Cant help you with that. You come on here acting in a disrespectful manner taunting and accusing me of making things up. Take it somewhere else . Sour grapes? How about being pissed off for being ripped off. I am not going to continue this conversation with you. So good luck on your assessments.
I did not find those reviews very convincing. The all had the same or similar catch praises and appeared to have been written by the same person. Of course a can't prove that, but it does give me pause.

"The sum of all this is quite simple. If you cant see it , I cant help that. it doesnt take much vision. $212 is simply a rip off for replacing 2 bulbs and a piece of wire."
- if that is the way you feel, why did you contract with him do do it?
"Do the math. All other subjective/personality/ageism issues are really irrelevant".
- what math, I never saw an estimate
"Obviously you have some sort of stake in the business or enjoy playing devils advocate and fail to see with any clarity the lack of ethics exhibited by charging so much."
- Oh yea, my electronic empire reaches to southern California, as far as ethics go, if you don't like the price, take it elsewhere or do it yourself.
"Apparently the incongruity of the cost of repairs when comparing a complete AUTHENTIC restoration on a Mac tuner as compared with replacing 2 light bulbs on this tuner is not clicking for you."
- what you are saying about some work done on a McIntosh tuner is hearsay, you provide no details of what actually was performed on it, how long ago it was done and who performed the work.
" You come on here acting in a disrespectful manner taunting and accusing me of making things up.
- gee I thought that is what YOU are doing to Champlifier!
"How about being pissed off for being ripped off.
- what about being pissed off at yourself for not doing your homework before hiring someone to do the work for you and then complain about it after the fact. Looking at your photo on Yelp, are you really looking at the world through rose colored glasses?
"I am not going to continue this conversation with you. So good luck on your assessments.
- Don't believe that for a second ...
