Why isn't a WOF the same price everywhere! My daughter paid $49 and she lives in the same town as I, she has a SW yet it cost me $51

Why isn't milk the same price everywhere!
It's a free market, people can charge what they want to perform a service or sell a product.

I paid $45 yesterday.
I would avoid the really cheap places as I'd guess they would 'find' things that needed repairing, if ya catch ma drift.
At $30 they're not gonna be breaking even, surely.

The size of the car doesn't matter. If one place charges $50 for example, it will be $50 for all types and sizes of cars.

Yes, but in 50 years time, that money saved would be almost a tank of petrol

Cost me $35 last weekend - I refuse to go near VTNZ after they failed me on wiper blades which meant I had a warrantless car fora week until the following weekend where I had to waste my time on a re-check. Any place with a brain cell worth of discretion would have just advised me I needed to attend to this before next warrant time (I could see fine with wipers). but not VTNZ! Plus it cost more.
Shop around.

I pay $50 for mine. I could probably get it cheaper elsewhere but the place I go to, I know he will fill up the washer if it is empty, and let me sort any minor issues like bulbs before he ticks off the sheet. Swings and roundabouts.

Actually, I would pay more for that kind of service. The cost of the aggravation of having to take time out of 2 weekends to appease VTNZ is worth paying another $15 to even $30 more to avoid.

we charge $49 at work. only because it should take 1 hour to do a wof even tho i do them in 40 mins. customers never complain about price as they know there car will get a good chaeck and be safe and little things like washers bottle and other small jobs like liights etc i do as saves the customer time and my time not having to fuss around. also would not beleave how many cars ive failed on dangerous things like leaking shocks and seat belts and alsort that have gone stright to a vtnz and past with flying colours. just my 2 cents, steve
