1 /5 K Do: Ive been going to simon for years.
Simon quoted me for my bricks and rotors, parts and labor $1400.00.
I found someone to do the same work.
And buying the parts.
For half the price.
People be careful of simon!
Bs n on OEM Parts!
I put Brembo parts on and was cheaper! Brembo come stock on mercedes.
Anyone that knows parts brembo, costs more.
Simon quote it $1400.00 parts & labor.
New mechanic did the job for $700.00 parts and labor. 1.5 hrs. Of work!
A little hard to justify $1400.00
You can make your own decision.Thats the experience I had with simon.
My suggestion is dont trust Simon. Ive been going there for years. I think 6 or 7 years.
But if you want to take it to simon, but check with another shop, how long it will take.
Because simon should have hourly rate posted somewhere on the shop to clarify.How much it will cost.
That was my mistake.
But not anymore, theres people out there cheaper!
Third in final reply.
Simon, why do I have to show the receipt to you?
Who are you?
I dont need you to be my mechanic anymore. Lol
I see how the game is played.
Youre lucky I dont like fixing cars or getting involved in cars.
What I know now I can open a shop next. Door to you and put you out of business.
I dont want to waste my time on cars!
Youre the one that rip off your customers.
Im just telling your customers my experience for being a good customer 6-7 years, with you.
Im not questioning you on the work e for all this.
So youre asking me for receipts, why would I give you receipts and give up my contacts.
This work has been been done a week ago.
I took a picture after having coffee and breakfast. Thats why you see two rotors there.
The mechanic was so quick.
I wasnt going to post, but you keep opening your mouth.
Ive been a good customer of yours. 6-7 years.
Not one time I ever haggled about price.
Im a customer that drops off the car and wait for you to tell me how much.
Its my fault for getting to comfortable with you.
Throughout this experience ive learned where to source out materials on the cheap!
Now, I just need to find a couple more shops to keep everyone on there honest.
So thank you simon for that!
If you really want to find out who it is, Ill give you three hints.
1. Hes chinese.
2. Hes in oakland.
3. He is honest.
You can figure out if its you or not.
This post is going to hurt you more me.
You just dont want to accept responsibility Simon.
Its hard to justify $1400.00 for 1.5 hours of work part in labor.
Thank you, Simon for putting me in this position. I know where the source, the parts now.
Have a good rest day for your day.
Just so everyone understand my relationship was with simon.
I actually gave him one of my french bulldogs for being a good guy for free.
Like, I said, be careful, if youre going to take your car to him and customers that have ive been with him.
