Think that's expensive shop time in garages is $120-200.
Plumbers, electricians, general contractors charge $200-500.
If they bitch about $100 an hour tell them to go price a any of the above services that are performed mostly by high school drop outs.
PS If they want an itemized explanation of the cost:
$5 for turning screw driver
$1 for blowing dust off their components
$4 for benadryl from the dust allergy
$10 for mileage charge
$80 for knowing which screws to turn.

And has a beautiful middle aged woman kept on calling you back to fix her hard drive?
