You guys are right I should've asked how much before having them install it. But being that overpriced never came to my mind. I will take it as an expensive lesson in life I guess.
I am going to try my hardest to get my money worth. On the receipt, it say unlimited lifetime warranty. I am going to get it reinstalled many many times for any stupid reasons I find.
Ouch!!!...$33 for a screen protector?!. Just learn to ask next time.
Visit the Apple Store today to buy a case for my 5s. On my way out of the store, I stop by one of those accessory kiosks and decided to buy a screen protector and have the person install it. I could never install the protector perfectly with no air bubbles.
I thought it would be $10 max, but it when the guy said $33 I had a heart attack. I gave them my money, what else could I do? I came home with a head full of steam.
Yes it is perfect, I couldn't have install it myself with the same result or even come close to it at all. It also came with a microfiber cloth for cleaning finger smudges.

Read the OP again -- carefully.That is crazy... because they are less than $0.03 to make, normally retail for $0.33 each online and then $33.00 installed at the Apple store.
Welcome to the wonderful world of retail.
As always, it's a matter of preference -- regardless of the device in question.lol why would someone put screen protector on the iPhone in first place
Well, I wouldn't call $33 an expensive lesson in life.
Buying a $750,000 home that tanks 6 months later and ends up losing half its value ... that's an expensive lesson.

Why didn't you ask them how much it was before doing it?
A cloth too? For $33 it better come with a 6 pack of good beer and a mother ****ing hug.Yes it is perfect, I couldn't have install it myself with the same result or even come close to it at all. It also came with a microfiber cloth for cleaning finger smudges.
Gouging and fraud is how many businesses now operate around the globe. [...] You have to watch every penny like a hawk.
I've used iOS devices since 2008 and i've never used a screen protector and i've never had a scratch on my screen. I don't put anything sharp or pointy in the same pocket in my phone, like keys. Personally, I think they are useless.
I have to use screen protectors. Diamond earrings cut glass.
Asking what earrings they're wearing before letting them use my phone would NOT end well.![]()
It's a special solution courtesy of the installer. :-DThat must be some special screen protector for that price. Better be the glass screen protectors lol
But I mean it is your fault for not asking though. but I would be pissed too.

Shop around.
Buy $33 of screen protectors and get some practice with installing them.
Any of countless other options...

That's your fault. You asked for the service and you got it, you are obligated to pay. It's not the vendors fault you didn't ask how much it was prior to getting it done.
Was at in the galleria in Houston by any chance? Those guys sold me a counterfeit Mophie case a while back, had a huge argument with them over it but even Mophie confirmed it was a counterfeit so I persisted and got my money back.
I would never ever buy anything from any of those kiosks ever again, this Mophie case looked just like the real deal and was sealed within proper Mophie packaging but the internals of it were a joke and it didn't work at all.
