Accurate Lawn and Garden

Do not take your lawn mower or anything else into this place. I took my mower in to get an estimate, they called a week later and told me that it was going to cost $ 270.00 to fix it. I told them not to bother as I could buy a new mower cheaper. The guy asked if I wanted the mower back or if they could keep it to «recycle it». I told them I would come and pick it up as I know someone that will give you money for the mower running or not. When I went to pick it up I was told that there would be a charge for the estimate, something they hadn’t mentioned at any point previous to this. When I asked why wasn’t I told about the estimate fee when I dropped it off he showed me some fine print on the claim check and told me they don’t have to say anything about the fee. He then told me that this had been an issue in the past and thats why it was on the claim check. I then said if you’ve had an issue in the past with this why don’t you tell people up front so there’s no confusion, he didn’t answer. I asked how much was the fee and he told me it was the exact same amount as I would get for the mower from a salvage guy. He then also informed me that the mower was still in pieces and if I wanted it put back together then it would cost me even more. He admitted to me that if I just walk away that they were going to use my mower for parts and give me nothing for it. If you take anything in to them they’re going to try and charge you either way or take your machine for parts.
