Fish Room Redux - 3600+ Gallon Plywood Tank Build

Nothing spells REALITY like handing out your credit card number to order a $1700 piece of plastic.

Wow, that's a good price. Where did you source it from? I am paying $1400 for 2 sheets of 3/4" cell cast for a customer's tank.

That's the guy I was referred to through my friend. He matched a quote I had from another place. Really nice guy.

Well, a bit of bad news, a hidden fee for saturday delivery came up from the freight company, $411, so no delivery this weekend. It gives me a time to think out the unloading process a bit better though.

$411

Holy crap, what are you paying for the guy's whole day of labor plus fuel? That's some BS right der.

That's called the "weekend partying in New Orleans" fee.

Now thats a fee I can relate to

 

[necrocanis]

Good luck, sounds like that guy really wanted to take you to town on that delivery fee. Maybe I should charge a saturday delivery fee when driving the schwan's truck lol.

 

[nolapete]

Haha. It's actually the freight company not the plastics company. Two separate deals. The plastics company contracts the delivery with the freight company. My plastics guy was pissed about the hidden fee. They didn't tell him about it until he was ready to place the order for it to be delivered.

 

[NOLAGT]

Thats how some people do...I run into that too...call out fees if its after hours stuff like that.
