No, that was just the price for the process and yes it’s one of your partners. He seems to be under the impression that he has a monopoly because he is one of the 3 on the east coast that is certified
I had my piercer drive an hour from another state, directly to my house to install both my xNT and my xEM at the same time. I paid him $150 to do it. Then again, he’s been my trusted body piercer for the past decade, so it was money well spent. I’d rather pay more and ensure it is done right than to pay less and have everything be messed up and worrisome.
I have a FlexDF and mine was 300 in total not including the drive from Ohio to NYC. The implant itself was 200 (on sale)
I asked Brian how much and he gave me an unsure look and then I pulled 100 in cash out of my pocket and handed it to him and he indicated that it was sufficient. Mine was in a tough spot and it was the flex series though so it was a tad more involved, and from what I understand that is typical for a flex series implant even though some people still prefer to cut into you for the x series implants.
If you click on someone’s avatar you can see when they last were here. Anarchy81 was last on the board in June of 2018. Chances of getting a reply are pretty much nil.
However, maybe if you posted a thread with your general area, asking for reccomendations, somebody could point you in the right direction?
Edit:
In keeping with the spirit of the original poster, I payed 100 for install in Texas. (Long drive)
