Comparing prices

I need some help. I wanna get my car detailed and want to know if the price sounds right to you guys. He said he was going to buff the car, wash it, clay it, and then buff it again. He also is going recondition my two front seats for $150. Is this a good deal?

I have an 06 Black Coupe with Beige interior.

The price is in the ballpark but why would anyone buff your car before he washes it? If that's how he intends to do the job find someone that knows how to detail correctly!! What a nightmare that would create....

He said that this would open up the pores of the paint.. something like that. He said he was going to buff it after again. =s
Should i look for someone else?

You might want to do some research, on here, before dropping your hard-earned money for that type of job. Members on here are your best bet, if they work in your area. They can forward you pictures of the work they've done before to prove the quality of their work.
$150+ does seem a reasonable rate. Post pics when you're done.

Im in st. louis and I do kind of a side detail business just for a little cash. In order to bring in people instead of them going to waterway i charge 120 and do a much better job. but I would look around before you go with him
