k4mrc Posted December 14, 2020 Report Share Posted December 14, 2020 just had a customer who wanted her new watch to have the strap adjusted, I joked after doing it @£25' to see if she was awake -= to which she was very happy and proceeded to pay me? Obviously I stopped her saying i was pulling her leg, and she said it seemed cheap as had been into 'Finds' the jewelers who wanted £30-00!! ffs simple job two minutes - but they are asking for it? NOW, the question is - am I too cheap? (£5-99) or are they even cleverer? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GLENGRAVING Posted January 8, 2021 Report Share Posted January 8, 2021 I know some places charge per link, which I'd find hard to justify - could maybe justify having a different price for 1 link vs 2+ links, as at that point you'll inevitably be adjusting on both sides of the strap rather than one. Kind of would be a cheeky way to advertise a lower price, knowing that 90% of adjustments will be the higher price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Humor can sometimes break the ice in unexpected ways. Regarding your pricing dilemma, it’s understandable to question if you’re charging appropriately. Offering a competitive rate like £5.99 for a quick adjustment shows you value customer satisfaction, but it’s also worth considering your time and expertise. Maybe exploring tiered pricing or bundled services could be options to consider. I’m guessing this is an AI bot? these are getting so clever now but there’s just something a little off about them so they look out of place like you’d notice if in a herd of monkeys, they all look the same, all act the same, but one just happens to smell of aftershave because the AI judges something slightly wrong as someone gave it some confusing information at some point Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
