  3. Hey, I have one working right now, on a pretty involved destroy/replace. Price quote was iffy, but I will let you know when he's done (tonight) how it went. Perhaps email me privately if you'd like details. aiesposito@yahoo

  4. Officially a rant now. 24/7 Locksmith (very sketchy company, no storefront and hard to look up) WAY overcharged me and gave me a bogus estimate (it was very low on the phone, so I didn't call anyone else and got stuck with them).
    .
    phone estimate: $28
    drill lock: $155
    new lock: $100
    re-key doorknob: $35
    .
    They didn't have the right locks and returned after 9PM (and the guy inexplicably asked me, mid-sentence, when my husband was coming home), still didn't have the right lock, and left me in a lockless house overnight.
    .
    The guy who showed up was nice enough, but the guy answering the phone is a fraud and liar. He won't return my calls now. When my husband called to ask why I was only given a single key, he was told a) there's only one key, b) I lost the second key, and c) he'd look into it.
    .
    I don't mind paying for service at all, but I would have appreciated them telling me (after my repeated requests for clarification) that the $28 fee was to simply show up, and all other (radically overpriced) actions were more.
    .
    DO NOT USE 24/7 Locksmith!
