Re: surcharge

I am with xxx on this one.

I think the manufacturers took a huge step forward when they chose to NOT USE NAGS lists anymore. Thye did what they had to for their profitability. They hoped all of the retail glass companies, would follow suit and raise prices and stop using the failed system that is the NAGS LIST.

But sadly, it seems there are still to many fish in the sea, and to many that blindly follow the insurance companies "policies".
