I used to work for Taylors competition Electrofreeze as a refrigeration repair tech. if Taylor is anything like Electrofreeze it was (going back 7 years) $265 just for me to walk into the door. If you forgot to flip a switch and that's all I had to do, $265 please.
I imagine they make a lot of money off of that. Plus marking up parts... $600 compressor we would sell for $2000.
I really enjoyed fixing things for people, I just hated having to hit them over the head with the service charge when they didn't really need service :/
