Ridiculous Prices

I was absolutely shocked at the prices I received from them... I understand that a business needs to make a profit but this was disgusting put nicely.... I took a 1996 mazda rustler bakkie to replace a gearbox seal which costs approx R200.00 and labour I would have estimated around R1000.00 max, oil shows 1 unit so I'm not sure if it is 1 pint or a 5ltr which also costs R200.00 max they charged me R3950... Then when complained the brought it down to R3200... which still makes it more than double the price.... something has to be done by top management or even by the directors... a response would be really useful. Thanking you in advance Cuban
