Is $908 to repair an air conditioner a fair price?
Project Details
My air conditioner stopped working yesterday. I called the company I have been dealing with for many years, and they came right away, on a Sunday, to fix it. The bill for $908.00 seems quite high to me, and I'm wondering if prices have really gone up that much.
