My keys were in my clothes when they were stolen from the the locker at the gym at 24 hr Fitness on N. Capitol, San Jose.  So I had to get my door locks changed for a peace of mind.  The door locks were in good condition, and I saw this re-key option that only cost $19 bucks online, and verified when called, so I thought I got a deal so easily by googling it, as it was the first ad I saw on the webpage.  Well, when the technician arrived, he just unscrewed my door locks without first telling me the actually cost but said it's the same cost to change a lock as well as the rekeying service anyway.  So I thought, oh wow, 19 bucks for a new lock? What a deal!

Then while he was putting in the new locks and the dead bolt which came out in a set, he asked me to pull up a website on my cell phone called boldlocksupply.com, which showed the cheapest locks being $280.  My goodness, these locks are just really simple ordinary ones, that probably would only cost no more than 50 bucks at Homedepot, that must be a fake website too, because it only carried no more than 10 products to choose from on the page, and as I said $280 was the cheapest one? Crazy, I could get some PIN code electronic locks with that price!  So I just realized that this is a scam, I immediately said I can't afford this, I thought the rekeying of one door lock and the deadbolt for 19 each, plus the 15 service call, and maybe a labor fee of 50 (as it took him less than 10 minutes), my budget was around 100.  Don't you have any cheaper locks?

He said that's the lowest price they carry as you can see on the website, he then offered me a today only special for 250.  I said no, I can't afford, what you gonna do now with my door locks already taken off now?  He said, ok, let's do this, if I pay cash, he gives me a 10% further discount for 225.  Still, I really can't pay that much, I said the most I can come up is 200.  Then he quickly agreed that, ok, I saw your mom there, if the headquarter calls to verify the job satisfatory survey, just say you have a senior here, so $199 is your new senior price.  Anyway, without my consent, he has already taken off the old locks, and finished the job even before we reached the $199 done deal (which I still think it's a rip off at this price).

I'm writing to inform shoppers for locksmith keeping away from this company, because it's so visible that it popped up first on the AD when Google.  And even if you called and they showed up, do not allow them to touch, or even "let me unscrew it to check what kind of lock do you have", before reaching an agreement on the product and total cost.  Otherwise, you'd be stuck like me, when the lock is taken off and I can't even put it back myself if sending him away.  Estimate is not an enough price quote over the phone, this company is a total scam:  24/7 QUICK PICK LOCKSMITH SERVICES,  (888) 300-0605.  http://quicklocksmith247.com.   Be aware!!!
