If I had to pay labor costs that would have amounted to triple or more the parts costs. As long as I can repair myself, I'm willing to foot the bills. Otherwise I'd have to reconsider it's value vs. expenses vs. enjoyment
I think most people are not capable of doing these types of repairs on their own, nor do they have the time or the tools.
I am still hanging onto my MB cause I am hoping that the last thing that broke will be the last thing that breaks (wishful thinking).
