perhaps it might be beneficial to ask the company in question for a
breakdown of what, exactly a "full service" entails. is it just a look
over to see that everything is rjnning, a full system strip down? and
replracement of any faulty parts(with breakdown of parts replaced or
proposed to be replaced)?
I wonder if a "service" differs significanlty from a complete overhaul(
the latter case being more a valid justification for the price quoted)
Just my wee pennies worth.

Hi Jim
Blimey that's a large mouthful to swallow! (smile.) I needed my Alva BC680
serviced, and it cost a third of that! I wonder how these people can justify
that cost?
Kind Regards,

Subject: [access-uk] Device servicing
Hi List,
I'm just looking for some feedback re the servicing of devices.
Yesterday I called Sight and Sound technology regarding the serviceing of my
Focus 80 Braille display.
I was somewhat shocked to find out that if I wanted a full service for this
device it would be in the area of £620 or thereabouts. I quick glance would
cost £75.
I am hoping to sell this device and obviously I want to sell it in the best
codition.
Any thoughts?
