Well, perhaps I need to explain.
When I read these posts, it sounds like:
"Hey, I know there are some contractors on here, so I'm going to ask for some free advice and then use someone else."

ah, never thought about it like that.
i was just wondering what people found out AFTER they had Lowes (or someone local) install carpet. usually don't know how bad you got beat till AFTER you paid.
example: buddy doing granite countertops this week.
he was DEAD SET against Lowes, and I told him about the guarantee, so his wife made him at least price check Lowes.
Lowes did the whole kitchen: linoleum, new cabinets, new sink, new granite for about $500 cheaper than any way he could do it, and he got Lowes guarantee on it.
to me, life is to complicated to NOT ask, and I have been to most of the guys on here's house, and most of them have been to mine, so we kinda know where we stand on stuff: need something good, but the real money goes in the race car....
