I thought I was incredibly clear.

$100 buys you a cut, scrape, and glue in swap.

$500 buys you care and detail work.

You can't get the $500 job for $100.

Roughly, $50 = one hour.  Nobody can do the slick quality job in two 
hours (including travel and talk time).

You get what you pay for, in the end.

I stopped shopping for "price" over 15 years ago for car work and 
started appreciating "quality" instead.  because I am poor, not rich.  I 
want the work to last...
