Profit?
« on: January 03, 2011, 12:36:41 PM »
I just got my windshield replaced on my truck.

Guy put a flier on my truck a couple weeks ago, advertising $75 cash back for insurance approved replacements.

I was on the phone during the 3 way insurance claim approval, and the insurance company approved a total replacement cost of $120 to the glass company.
-He's gotta buy a huge chunk of automotive glass that has been custom fitted to my truck.
-He's gotta buy two tubes of silicone sealant
-He's gotta drive all over the town
-He's gotta do the labor, and it took him and a co-worker about an hour to do the job
-He's gotta cover his insurance expenses, too.

How do you fit all that in, in $45?

He uses an accountant that's moonlighting from his job at the GAO?
