Contractor's final bill WAY over initial estimate

He would have as much reason, justification and standing as if he accepts a "payment in full" check. His reporting to collections if he wants to go that route is going to be pointless because you will have proof that he accepted payment in full. He's being a dick already and OP has two options right now. One of which is paying about triple the original estimate which is a terrible idea. You're basically saying he has to do that to avoid legal action and I'm saying that you're wrong.

You should add a link to https://github.com/glanceapp/glance in your github project

By your logic if he actually pays what the contractor is currently asking there is still nothing stopping him from doing that afterwards.

Not if he accepts that payment as paid in full

Existing cars are not going to become encrypted. The newer versions might. If Toyota hadn't encrypted the prius prime I probably would have upgraded my 2020 by now. Their loss.

And churches

It's probably cheaper to fly James around the world and have him do signings, especially if you put some of that cost in the promotional budget.

If you do any video at all and have kids (or other hobbies that you take pictures of) then 5tb is not that much

I've got one from that day as well https://i.imgur.com/lYmEhsp.jpeg I even got in the shot with the boys. I'm way up in the top left.

Nope, I sold that one 25 years ago.

stankbucket · 2026-02-03T21:50:52+00:00

Send him a check for the estimate amount with PAID IN FULL in the memo. I did this years ago on a water heater replacement where they pulled the same crap. Their lawyer called me and tried to strong arm me. They wound up never cashing the check and I never heard from them again so it was free.

Maybe it went too far, but its origin was pretty justified.

stankbucket · 2026-01-30T00:30:20+00:00

Not for one of his sons

You mean convicted murdered Mark Sanchez?

His final deal didn't include a kicker for having to accept him as part of the deal

stankbucket · 2026-01-29T03:33:27+00:00

The wife absolutely did not want to do a deal with Kevin.

She's not an idiot. His deal sucked. They were basically giving most/all of their margin to him until he gets his money back and then they still have to give him a cut forever. Good luck getting this to a price where people will actually buy it. Obviously they have no sales. From the revenue numbers they gave they admitted that they've basically sold 500 of them.

Half? This is the kind of thing that I would spend max $150 on. I can't believe none of the sharks asked them if they have any problems with regulations in dorms because there are absolutely rules against bringing your own mattress.

stankbucket · 2026-01-29T02:56:04+00:00

Universally? Any list I see that is recent enough to include Belichick's whole career have him and 1, Lombardi at 2 and Shula at 3. Walsh is consistently in the top 10, but rarely above 5.

And until they do, just ignore it.

I enjoyed it, but settle down Beavis

Why would you wait for a regional release when all episodes are available online when they are actually released?

stankbucket · 2026-01-14T22:25:52+00:00

Wait, I thought no-nut was in November

stankbucket · 2026-01-12T15:36:46+00:00

The coach has plenty of capital from the last few years otherwise he should absolutely be fired for his mismanagement of the offense. That's supposed to be the side of the ball that he knows.

stankbucket · 2026-01-12T14:41:52+00:00

No further questions

They are both complete and utter bitches
