I had an extra ring added to my 24 foot grain bin (went from 5 to 6 rings) for extra capacity.
I had called the original installer, but couldn't seem to get them to come out or get serious about getting this done for me. I talked to several other dealers in the area, and just seemed like all they were interested in was selling me a new bin. But I just needed another 20% for my EXISTING bin to have plenty or room for storing my crop. Bin was only about 5 years old, so I didn't need to replace the whole thing.
Finally got ahold of a nearby grain bin dealer who would do it for me. He was kind of vague about the cost, talking first like $3000 and then mentioning $4000.
Well--got the bill the other day and they charged $5110 for puting this extra ring in. Took 3 guys about a day to do it. I'm kinda pi**ed because I think they overcharged me, and maybe more at myself because I should have nailed them down closer on the price.
Do you think that this is too high a price for something like this? Why is it so hard to get something like this done? I see lots of bins in the country that look like they have had extra rings added.
