Ngl, when I do the occasional tablet or phone repair for someone that isn’t family or a friend, that’s around what I end up charging, with parts included, depending on the job. It’s extremely rare I’m willing to, but fucking around inside tight fitting devices with tiny screws and easy to screw up parts just isn’t something I’ll do cheap if I’ll do it at all.
Yeah, sounds pretty fair for a repair with parts and shipping.
It always takes longer than just the work on the device, as they have to open the package, put it in their system, repair and clean it, pack it up and send to the customer.
I like that they told him it’s an easy repair and showed him a tutorial on how to fix it themselves.

Word. A company that says “hey, you own it, if you want to do the work” is a good thing
