    I have no issue with someone asking for information about dealer's and what they charge for various services. I have no issue with guys voting with their wallets and finding a dealer that charges less or provides better service or both.

    I DO have an issue with calling a dealer (or any business owner) dishonest because the guy raised his prices. He may have had an entirely HONEST reason to do so. Expenses have gone up. Maybe he's decided his time is worth more. Maybe his wife is sick and medical bills are an issue. To label the guy as dishonest on a public forum (I know...the OP didn't identify the dealer) simply because you don't like his prices is, in my opinion, in extremely poor taste.

    I'm willing to bet the OP has never turned down a raise. Or, if he's a business owner I'm guessing he wouldn't hesitate to raise prices if he had to stay in business.

    +1- I raised my fee because doing transfers are a pain in the ass IMO. Some people I just don't want to deal with, so it thins out the crowd. And as Bailey said above, I raised my price because my time is worth $$$ and now it is worth $$$$.....
