Horrible experience getting car aligned

[Bradman123]

first shop i went to i couldnt even get into the shop cuz my car was too low. so they sent me to another guy. the guy they sent me to was a total goober lookin guy. i scheduled an apointment. but then called another place. they said they should be able to do it today. instead of tomorrow. so i went there. find out they use a "sun beam" or something alignment tool. doesnt use a computer just a beam of light.they had to put it on backwards and shoot the beam under the middle of the car in order for it to get a reading. they managed to do it. i have silkroad coilovers, tein tie rods, kazama outer rod ends. anybody else have such a horrible time getting their car aligned or is it just retards out here that only know how to work on 4x4 pickups. not only that it cost me 37 bucks just for a front end alignment. my camber plates seem to be close to maxed out and according to them its only 1 degree camber....i was asking for 1 1/2 but they couldnt get it. so i settled for 1 degree. what the hell is going on. i have the feeling i got ripped.
