I’m not doing this for a showcase, I just want some very basic, minimal work done. Total quote $2550.
I’m new to TV, this seems outrageous to me. What am I missing?
Can I do some or all of this myself?
If your complaining about the cost do it yourself. Good exercise. Remember they are not installing at cost. They also need to make a living.
