I need to get more details tomorrow, but I think my parents may have been scammed by a window salesman. Talked them into replacing 5 standard sized windows and one larger, maybe 5 x 3 single pane, for somewhere around $5000.
I did quick search on Lowes website and double hung insulated vinyl replacement windows were a little over $200 each. Didn't price out the larger unit but all of the materials shouldnt be over two grand. The salesman was from out of state.
Am I off base on the price of this job ?

There is a company doing them here for $158 ea. I'd find out what they paid him and put a halt to any transactions. $200 is a fair price. It sounds like you need to tell them you'll negotiate any repairs on their home. There are a multitude of Jerks taking advantage of the elderly.

I didnt get details until I talked with my sister tonight and plan on checking into it tomorrow. This snake used a bunch of names he threw at them to get them comfortable with the "good deal" they were getting.

Too many red flags. price, the fact he is out of State. He needs to come to Clark County for a face to face.

Just noticed that this was a replacement job and not original. Should have read more carefully. Definitely a scam. Should be no more than $200-$300/window on the 36x60 depending on quality of window used.
