Well, the $130 for parts is for 2 crts, normally end up doing the green and blue on alot of these, our labor is pretty close to $200 to $250 plus 45-75 trip in 60 mi radius of Ft. Wayne. We had to raise rates recently as we hadn't changed them in 5 years. Just replaced a fuse in a Toshiba for $195 + parts.......customer didn't even flinch.....although it was well hidden, and I tested a couple SMPS and HV circuits, so I worked for it.....
