Hi everybody.

I had this unfortunate encounter with a vulcanizing shop right beside Metrobank along E. Rodriguez Ave. near the corner of Cordillera St.

My rear tire ran over a piece of screw and was pierced. Although the tire still has enough air, I decided to have it vulcanized. I pulled over and parked my car on the wide sidewalk of Metrobank - E rod. Right beside was this vulcanizing shop whose guy very eagerly removed the tire and proceeded with his "vulcanizing". Then at the final phase of patching the tire, he asked this question: : Sir anong gusto nyo dito, etong patch P350.00, pag etong nylon na lulutuin P400.00 pero mas matibay?" Whooa. Magkano??? P100.00 lang yan ah. Hindi sir. Wala nang ganung presyo ngayon. In short, I think it was a HOLDAP store disguising as a VULACANIZING shop. There are many things that I should have done but decided to just pay him off to finish the job.

My objective here is to warn my fellow motorist to avoid this shop at all cost. Tama na ang isang naloko niya.

Remember, this is the one beside Metrobank along E. Rodriguez near Cordillera Street.
