Some form of paperwork to verify your story would go a long way in my book.
This....

why just join a forum to tell them to not use a company randomly...





sketchy post is sketchy...

I agree. They CANNOT charge you more than 10% of the estimate unless YOU give them the OK. If they bill shot up by $6k, it sounds like you must have OKed it. Also, how is it that they are charging you $10k in labor? At an average labe rate of $100/hr, you're saying they are charging you for 100 hours of labor? I find that hard to believe.

yeah I wouldnt be so quick to call a bluff on this one, although it seems sketch, he may just be an upstanding citizen who is concerned about other people falling for the shops gimmicks,(a lil sarcasm included) or he just wants to bad mouth them because they took 6 freaking months, which if it is true I dont blame him.

I'm not saying he is lying, i'm just of the mind that if you're going to post such a large claim against a company you should bring some proof. I've been working with him via PMs to post a receipt or bill which he says he has so we can see what kind of date range and scope of work he is having done. He wants to black out any personal information before posting though, so that is apparently his hold up.

I remember a guy on these same forums that had a GTR & Lambo & 900hp NOS Z who traded countries by day... so please excuse me if I don't take everything at face value

LOL I get what you are saying, but I will still give the OP the benefit of the doubt. Maybe his figures dont add up, but lets wait and see, maybe he is telling the truth, maybe he isnt, but I think turning skeptical and jumping to conclusions before anything is proven is pointless.

Ill give him another day or two to post that receipt.
