[QUOTE="hearts and roses, post: 455438, member: 2211"] [COLOR=#008080][SIZE=2]Omg, that is awful. A similar thing happened to H recently. He gave a quote to a customer and then not even a month later, when he went to get the contract signed, he discovered, quite by accident, that the prices had jumped by 30% since he quoted the job. He had called to get a price on something else for the same job and the person casually asked him, "Big price jump huh?" H would never had known and would have given those people the same price had that guy never said anything. There is one lumber place that sends him updates every time there is a price increase, but this one was a different place than he normally uses. Is there no way you could go to the client/customer and try to recoup some of that loss? [/SIZE][/COLOR] [/QUOTE]
