The fact that he's doing it by text suggests to me if accepts he may of made a mistake. He's now trying to guilt you into it.
If he was confident in what he thought was or should happen it would be face to face or at least an actual phone call. Not text.

Neale, stop feeling bad about it, you know what I would have said.....but its not printable and it would result in me getting a ban. The man is a bully, he has messed up, I think he gave the job to someone else, they have let him down and you were the next point of call. That second text was one of a man in a state of PANIC! I think he ran a comparison between your quote and another went with the other, then something has happened and hes reverted back to you. One of the annoying things about quotes (amongst the 521 currently on my list) is when you quote and you dont get a thank you, a response, or worse you hear someone else has got the work!!! Stuff him.

Cheers all but I feel bad as I enjoyed having a local bathroom company on the books so to speak and previous jobs were quite good...ahh well one door closes and another one opens as they say.

Let the dust settle mate. Im sure he'll be back to you in the future. Polite as anything with a bit of humble pie hanging off his chin. :thumbup:
