$10 a lot but the old guy that lives behind him gets $15 a lot because he is old

I'm with you on this one... I also do Not see how he figures someone else, just because he is older, is getting 50% More for the same job...?
Perhaps X-man works 50% less??? Or he realizes His work is actually worth 50% less.
Life has some mysteries, I guess this is just another... :smile:KennyV

In my world the low cost alternative is fine as long as you realize you get what you pay for. I would suggest x-man give himself a 50% raise. If he does a 50% poorer job, the market will decide if he is worth it.

If he branched out a little he could charge more.

Again.... he buys lawn/leaf bags, I don't.

And I think he uses more gas because some of my equipment is electric.

Oh ok now I understand LOL

Did someone tell you that you can not charge the same as him or did you make this up all by yourself.

He buys bags and uses more gas what does that have to do with how much you charge?
All that matters is that you do a better job then him.

I decided on the price myself. If I wanted to raise it to $15 I could.

X-man if you are happy with your price and happy with your business and doing what your doing that is all that counts. You run your business the way you want not the way someone else says to. The thing is what you consider making a living and what others consider making a living are two different things.
