Saddler Costs

I was charged £45 last time the saddler came to visit - that included some flocking done on the saddle when he was there.
 
For a saddler to come out and check saddle approx. £25 sometimes plus mileage depends how far they have to come.

I recently asked a woman who has set up on her own how much she charged she said £50.00 this is for flocking (but not the cheap stuff) and she does not sell saddles only reflocks and checks them for fitting. I think this is expensive.
 
I have just booked for a saddler to come out and have been charged £68. This includes call out, fitting and VAT!
Must admit I was gob smacked at the price but desperately need it done and after trying several saddlers round this area none bothered to phone me back! I even rung Albion to get their recommendations for my area and they gave me a number of a local guy and he couldn't even be bothered to get back to me after leaving several messages! Charming.
 
In SE it's very expensive looking at around £75 for call out and adjustment. I have to have my saddle flocking removed and then completelty re-done thats going to cost £100. My saddler is cheaper than most and normally charges £30 to come out and adjust my flair saddle
