Sounds Great......Right? WRONG!

Are you available for signing for Mon, Mar 10, 2025 at 5:30 PM PDT at Simi Valley, CA 93065?

PLEASE READ: Must drop off docs in Buena Park after signing.

Notary Fee: $180.00

Type: Purchase Package W/ Scanbacks

Location: Simi Valley, CA 93065

Scanbacks: Yes

@steves11 So they want scanbacks AND to drive an additional 62 miles ===>>> to handoff the package? Who knows how LONG the drive will take at that time of day!

Will you be requesting an increase of the offered Fee by at least a 2X or 3X multiple . . . ?

Only problem with this is that it’s a 62 mile drive from Simi Valley to Buena Park after you’ve done scanbacks. So, by my conservative calculations, they’re paying you $80 for the signing, $0 for the scanbacks and $100 to do a round trip 124 mile drive during a time of day when traffic is likely to be very heavy. This is likely a 1 1/2 hour drive each way, using 1/2 tank of gas @ close to $5.00 per gallon plus wear and tear. Good deal or not? What do you think?

@steves11 Definitively Hard Pass. :-1:

I’m not even going to respond to this offer because there’s no chance that they would pay me the amount it would take to make it feasible for me.

@steves11 As I’m not cognizant of the potential client nor their reputation, provided a “best generic” response.

Of course, there are some regular clients who would easily adjust the Fee & accommodate the request.

There are other regular clients to whom no response would be provided due to their demonstrated rigid stance not negotiating whatsoever.
