3 ensuit counts as 1 room

There you have it $149 for the master bedroom?

The Bay's ad here is even  worse than that. But people buy?

BAIT & SWITCH? Who reads past the Bait Line NO ONE????

I guess it is the old look before you leap?

it's nothing like what you say douggie....the price is the price...it just the gard and deo/dis that make the difference

Maybe not in the GTA Steamer. But there is a whole other world outside the GTA?

But you can see that only when you leave the GTA, Doug. Some people there never leave it, ever eh? They are born there, stay all their lives there, and die there.

I think Doug is closer to the truth than Steamer, what constitues a room with these people is closer to Doug's post than people understand until they arrive at the site and give the customer their actual price, most people are scared to object so they let them do the job, those who object usually watch the carpet cleaning truck driving away without doing the job, and than they get on the phone and want us to come right over and bail them out because they have moved furniture etc. Because these people do National advertising the pricing structures are constant accross the board.

What do you do when they call you?

I usually agree with you Steamer but not this time.

I see a dramatic difference in pricing and pricing expectations once you cross the border from Mississauga into Oakville. Likewise in the east.

To me the GTA is really Mississauga to Pickering inclusive and no further north than Thornhill.

Just my opinion.

So is it safe to say I am outside the GTA here in Missouri?

I charge by the sf straight and simple.  It works out well for me.  Once in a while it works out really well.
CCT, UFT, OCT, CRT, RRT, WRT, SMT, FSRT, JTC, JSR, JWR, MTC a great life, if you don't weaken.

Steamer has all the money. On this board he is the SEARS's official spokesman with regards to their ethics?

The 4 sq. ft. Linen closet is the same price as the 180 sq. ft. Living room
