More details to this question:
I have obtained 3 estimates. $2,000, $2,200 and $2,900. They state if I were having the car repaired they would pay more if needed to complete the repair. I say they owe me the smallest estimate regardless of whether I have the car repaired or not. I am considering small claims court. Do they owe me the $2,000? The car is not totaled.
