As a past Canadian installer, you guys are nuts. The shipping here alone kills any incentive to even want to bother doing it. We are talking like $25 + insurance each direction for Canada Post, which will then lose your parcel for a month at a time since the Pandemic hit, then good luck getting the TX Core/TX Lite in hand for less than $100 in a timeframe less than 3 months, then you have to consider what you are paying for installation.
People really don't understand the bs installers and electronic repair techs go through just to make what $30-40 bucks? It's not just things like this either, fuck me if you have someone wanting a repair on some obscure piece of audio equipment and they scoff at you wanting money to asses the problem and research the proper replacement components because it's 20 years old and then when you say $200 to fix their $15000 audio head which includes $120 in exotic parts they try weaseling you down like your time and research is worthless.
Anyone willing to do this properly for any reasonable price is honestly doing YOU a favour because they are wasting their time even bothering with this crap. Especially if it's someone that isn't local, and has to deal with shit like people sending them busted things they tried to do themselves and then blame the installer for breaking, all it would take is me having to replace 1 switch due to a false claim and I would need to do 10 installs to break even.
I hope I don't see anymore shit on here "calling people out" or whatever the fuck is going on, over prices etc.
Have some respect, not many of us nowadays are even willing to help strangers because there's too much risk involved.
