I also figure if I do a decent job for a good price and next week some random unobtainium part bites it from old age I won't have as pissed of a customer as I would if I charged 5X as much.

Perhaps I am too cheap...
Heck, I'd flip you $40 just to fix the stupid signal issue with my Motorola 7VT2 if you feel like busting out the iron at ETF
