[quote=Anonymous]She has the design. What time and effort? It’s a small bathroom. Let’s say the stuff she needs to buy is $10,000 (it’s more). Why would she first hand the trade discount to the designer (higher class designers pass it on) and then pay another 15 percentage points on top. That could amount to $5,500 easily, for what? Not to mention bullshit fees. She can get most of it on Amazon. Porcelanosa has 40% off twice a year. Build.com lets you order directly. This is such a racket. If the designer is installing maybe I have some tolerance for not passing the entire discount but zero for the upcharge. Cost plus labor is the top price, but it should be below retail cost plus labor for the installation. I guarantee this designer isn’t that great.[/quote]
