'£36 for a new tyre, tube and fitting? You're too expensive. How much is the labour? £15? How long is that for, 2 and a half hours? 2 hours?'
It's a new rear tire and tube for a child carrier trike with internal gear hub.
I replied, 'Our rate is £40/hour'.
'You are charging too much, that's why your shop is empty'
We're fully booked I replied.
