Is $4800 a good price to replace 8 windows?

Posted by admin on Saturday, December 15, 2012

Q. We are replacing eight windows in our house with double hung windows, is $4800 a good price or do you think we might be paying too much? This price includes installation and the windows, and the windows have a lifetime guarantee.

I am also wondering our window person said once we order the windows it will take approx. three to four weeks for them to come in and then they will install, does that sound right?

A. I think if they are custom windows and it includes taking your old ones out and disposing of them and installing the new ones...it sounds like you are getting a good price. If buying them standard sizes, then it may be a bit high. Make sure that the windows are vinyl and low E this means that the sunlight won't fade your carpets and fabrics on couches etc. Check out Home Depot, or Lowes, we got a very good deal when we purchased ours last year.

Q. As the date to W8 approaches, more details are arising. One detail that I haven't really been clarified on is the price of Windows 8 Pro. I'm talking about the single-user licensed, complete install disc that is shrink-wrapped and put into a pretty case :P

If there hasn't been a price released, what do you think it'll be?
I don't want to buy Windows 7 though :3 :P

You sell storm windows and doors. You receive a straight commission of 8 percent of the selling price of each?
Q. You sell storm windows and doors. You receive a straight commission of 8 percent of the selling price of each storm window and 12 percent of the selling price of each door. What total commission will you receive for selling storm windows worth 5,400 and doors worth 790?

A. Do you honestly not know how to calculate a percent? Just do like you learned in fourth grade: TURN THE PERCENT TO A DECIMAL AND MULTIPLY.

8 percent of x is x times 0.08.

12 percent of x is x times 0.12.

Will the price of Windows 7 drop when Windows 8 comes out?
Q. Well I want to build a computer soon and im just wondering if windows 7 will drop in price when windows 8 gets released.

What happened to vista when 7 came out? what about xp when vista came out? Did they drop in price or just go fully offsale?

A. When 7 was released it was still possible to buy Vista for about 6 months easily. After that it became a little more difficult to get. You'll probably see something similar when Win 8 is released. It did drop in price as I recall but it was a very small drop.
