The customer probably bought these TV's (cheap) online and would be bummed if the video distribution costs more than the TV's.
It's time to tell people to grow up. TVs have changed.
Ten years ago, appropriate TVs might have been plasmas costing $5,000 each. Today they're flat panels and cost way under $1,000. Your customer is complaining because TVs cost less today but but wire, ancillary devices and labor have not magically evolved to a lower price?
I'm sure you could get him stupidly expensive TVs (or simply charge a 'product-labor ratio correction fee' of $2,000 per TV), such that labor is not more than the price of the TVs. I'll bet he would not be satisfied if you adjusted things such that the TVs cost more than the distribution system!
