Home service is generally not for regular people. It is for people who for one reason or the other can't get the service rendered in the shop. You can't expect a top Manager of an organization or d big celibrity to come sit down in a regular barbing shop to have a haircut. That might be a security risk. And those people have the money to pay. If you are not in this class, go to the shop.

Have you had to request for home service for any service you usually get? It maybe barbing, laundry or any other service at all. Have you noticed that they prices of home service is always way higher than getting the service in the vendor's shop?
Sometimes, they are three times higher. Why is it always that expensive? As a service, would you charge like that?

The prices of Home Service actually differs from the location where the services are being offered which is why I don't consider it as a rip-off because your location will determine how much are going to be charged.

This is it and is the truth no matter how we want to see it, the truth is thath home service is overpriced and that is why they even prefer
It is not overpriced in my own perspective. The reason is because the person will leave whatever they are doing in the shop and come to your house. They can miss a lot of money within that period.

Well, different strokes for different folks it cam be very overpriced in the eyes of others. The reason of convenience shouldn't heightened the price charge so high it should be to a reasonable level

I have only been able to experience this question on online purchases. Therefore, although the price on an online store could often be lower, what I call rip-off, consists in the high cost of home delivery of the goods.

My thoughts exactly I don't know why the little convenience by businesses should come at a high price the price of the item would often be lower, but it becomes a rip-off when you need a little help

Well, most of the home service i have come across will not be considered a rip-off. It depends on the kind of business person you are dealing with.

No matter how we want to look at it, it is always overpriced nudt for the person to pay a visit to your home to do the same thing they charged low, the person would charge high.

When I want to come to your house to deliver my service to you, I have to charge you more for my transportation and other logistics that would be incurred of you come to my shop.

What matters the most in this scenario is the time spent and not the service itself. They would have used that time to get a lot of money in their shops.
