So many tips to choose from.

It takes me about 3 minutes to install a tip. I charge $20 if the customer provides the tip. I just had a guy say "wow, that's a lot of money for 3 minutes of work." I said I only charged you $1 for installing the tip.... the other $19 was for my 35 years of experience that allowed me to do it in 3 minutes without damaging your cue or making you come back in 3 days to pick it up.

Some people don't understand experience or knowledge.

if you have a 20 dollar minimum that is fair for sure. as you have to collect and talk and setup etc.

but if you think experience in putting tips on, is worth 20 for 3 minutes you are valuing your time at 400 an hour. and that is more like a surgeon's pay rather than a tip persons experience..

I called to get a price from the pool people near me and they charge 10.00 if you bring in your tip.
Tips are pretty high though... they charge 20.00 for the tips I buy for about 4.00 on top of the 10.00 installation fee.
I think I will keep installing my own.

same I'm charged for. $10 for installing your own tip. only reason I'm installing my own is that they don't want to install them on a CF cue. not sure what the deal is with that, but I did my just fine. their loss, not mine.

it's either inflation or monopoly?

If you don't want to pay what someone is asking for a tip installation, DON'T, do it yourself.....The End. Brian.
