Was this quote unreasonable?

i'd say perfect. £200 - £250 a day is a perfectly reasonable fee for the time of a quality spark who will deliver quality work (assuming that to be the case )

as oldtimer has poignantly mentioned, people will have zero issue with spending a fortune on consumables and desirable electronics, ironically showing total disregard for the essential commodity that powers them. Get bad work done and end up with a power cut, damaged house or damaged appliance as a result..... That £1200 3d tv with built in foot massager is as about as much use as anne frank's drum kit isnt it.

amen to that!

I don't get people sometimes. I did a quote a few months back to extend a ring and add 4 sockets. It was less than a days work and I quoted him £150 and he was happy and even checked I had qualifications and registered etc. Got a call the next day and he said the bloke down road said he'll do it for £50.

Wouldnt get in my van for less than £70 unless it was a good mate/family

Your family's obviously different to mine, if it was my family I'd quote double my normal rates and spend the next few days praying that they find someone else to do it....

Ouch, there was definitley something sexual offered in that deal on top of the £50.
