All of you are way too low in my opinion. I wouldn't do a repair on a JVC 48" for less than $425. That is very fair. I have seen some shops estimate that repair for $625. Don't ask what estimates I have gone behind Sears on. Heck, they get $225 for a tabletop in some cases and customers pay it. Why would or should we charge tabletop prices on JVC PTV's. I guess we are to charge $225 for 30" LCD's that the customers paid $4000 for, no way. I could not survive if I got $200 for those. Heck, my Yellow Page and phone bill is $1400 month.
