Mr. hart showed up and assesed my tv. He tells me it needs a new power board and it will cost $350. $200 for a new power board and $150 for the labor and service call. I agree, pay $80 for the service call and he returns 3 days later and fixes the tv and collects $270. 4 weeks later, my tv picture goes out. Once again Mr. Hart showes up and asseses my tv. He tells me the tv needs a new sustain board and it will cost, yep, you guessed it, $350. I agree and pay him for the service call, NEVER to hear from him again! I called and left him messages for over a month with no response. I ended up finding a specialist to fix my tv, who informed me that the ""NEW"" power board was not only old, but it was also from another tv. He also informed me that even a new power board only costs around $87. I ended up having to drop by Mr. Hart's shop and confront him, where he told me he didn't see anything wrong with lying to me about the price and the board and he was just trying to make a living! $350 for an old, used part and 15 minutes worth of work sound like a pretty good living to me...
