Replying to: qbrozen (May 27, 2008 8:13 am) W/O having driven either an S60R, or a G35x, & I do like (most) Volvos, this sounds like a good decision. For $18,800, with all the warranty, AWD (in NJ as I recall?), I can't imagine that you'd lose that much when selling....... Enjoy the car!

Replying to: qbrozen (May 14, 2008 12:18 pm) Do you have any advice for places to order a faucet online? I've been looking at faucetdirect, & efaucets. Both cheaper than home despot by about 15%, but then I know I can return stuff to HD, usually for 90 days, except for lawnmowers & leafblowers & the like. BTW, I found an online site called "service magic" as I recall. Put in a request for "plumber", got 3 references, all 3 called me w/in 48 hours. The first guy sounded very good, charges $85/hour, & the site has customer ratings for all of it's recomendations......

Replying to: woodyww (May 27, 2008 11:35 am) I checked on eBay, and there was a salvage company that must have had a dozen of them...crushed boxes, but all guaranteed to be 100%. Every day, they would put another one up for bid.... Price at Home Depot was $178 plus tax.. Most of these were going for right around $112, including the shipping on eBay.. I got lucky and got one for $86.. It came 5 days later, and it is perfect and complete.. (I'm really an eBay rookie, too..) From what I've noticed, the two companies you mention are not all that cheap... My contractor says stay away from Price Pfister and house brands... He recommends Delta, Kohler or Moen... regards, kyfdx

Replying to: woodyww (May 27, 2008 11:35 am) That sounds more reasonable than the flat fees you were quoted before. When you charge a flat fee for something like that, you have to build in a lot of padding for unexpected complications. Once you choose a plumber, you could ask him for the supply house he uses, and go there to get the faucet. |

Replying to: british_rover (May 27, 2008 10:50 am) BTW, I waved as I passed your neighborhood on the way up to New Hampshire. One day I'll get up that way with time to drop in. No doubt then I'll get the sales side of you.... |
