Zafra Motors (Near Lasalle)

**hindiakocjek** · June 13th, 2009 09:40 PM

gud day guys.. im new in this forum.. and hoping that this is the correct area for this thread..

i just want to share my experience w/ zafra personnel in vito cruz.. near Lasalle and Rizal stadium..

basically my battery was discharged.. and since there is a zafra shop located nearby.. i decided to ask for help.. maybe for just borrowing a jumper cable..

when i talked to the mechanic (or i think supervisor).. he offered me 2 options..

1 option is to allow me to use their jumper cable.. and option 2 is to offer tulak services with kadjot.. both for the price of 350 PHP!

wow! for the first time i encountered greedy people.. although i look like an automobile newbie.. i am aware of the basic troubleshooting.. so i'm expecting a much cheaper price.. im already thinking of giving the guy 100 php.. but upon hearing his price.. hell no!

long story short there are 2 good samaritans who helped me jump start my car..

pls post your opinions regarding this scenario.. Is it really worth 350PHP for the service/help im asking?

thnx guys..

they should have helped you without asking for anything in return.

thnx guys..

What you did in denying those guys was justifiable. 350 php for a simple help in jump starting was out of the question.

Pwede ba ako na lang magtulak sa kotse mo tsaka bigyan mo ko ng 350?!

Kidding aside.....

Grabe naman sila, 350 magtutulak lang. Para namang ano lang yung makatulong

Buti na lang yung mga tumulong sayo, mababait

i was shocked that there are greedy people like them.. and after reading some other threads, i noticed that most motorists are not satisfied w/ the services of zafra (in other branches)..

i forgot to mention that the scenario caused an argument.. coz 1 person heard our negotiation.. then suddenly he spoke and said.. "tara itulak nlng natin.. grabe nmn ginugulangan pa kau.. humihingi na nga ng tulong ung tao eh.."

then the zafra personnel started shouting and throwing bad words to the guy.. saying.. "presyo ko to eh bakit ka ba nakikialam.. Pu****" ..

nice manners he got there! hahaha
