✓ What they do well
2 thingsMandatory add-ons are the exception
Only 25% of quotes include add-ons you can't decline, averaging $795 when present. Most shoppers here never see one.
Advertised pricing is largely honest
On average, the quoted price is only 1.2% above the listing — small enough to be fees, not markup games.
! Where to push back
1 thingDoc fee is slightly padded
$843 is $105 above the NC average of $738. Not outrageous, but worth questioning.
TipAsk them to match the average. If they won't, factor it into your overall price — every dollar here is negotiable.
