I think that sometimes we have an enlarged sense of justice and it's hard when someone doesn't get what they deserve. It can be a bitter pill to swallow, but I think it's probably good for your kids to have seen how you compromised. :) I’m totally with you on this one.

But I do think the purpose of their early inspection was to protect both of you from something like this. If it wasn't written down, it didn't exist before you dropped it off. I just don't understand their logic of arguing that "you didn't see it." Um...neither did they, and that was the entire point of the inspection. Blech. I don't blame you for being upset, but again, I think you handled it well. I respect a good compromise if it keeps things from getting ugly.

It's not nearly as fun as threats and harsh words, but in the end you showed your fantastic character. =) Comprimise is aways good.

I would not have given in regarding the dent in the door. Well, maybe I would have, but I would have made a lot of noise first. I wonder how many times I will put my email password in the website box on these comment forms before I remember that is not what goes there. You are a bigger person than me.

Now you need to be wary of what 'half" is. It it indeed half or is it "all" or "most all" since the mobile dent guy is maybe a buddy of the body shop owner?
