victor:What is a fair price for a service, first stage, primary and octo?
The nearest LDS is going to charge me £80 to £100 for a service ($145 to $190).
That seems a little steep, unless it includes parts and services like O2 cleaning.

Most shops I've dealt with charge $15-20/stage plus parts. That's $45-60. I've seen an increase in the parts charges, but not that much. I'd shop around. You might even find somewhere in the US that can beat that price even with shipping. Especially the $190 price!

$15 - $25 per stage, parts extra. $16 for 2nd kits & $25 for 1st kits. Apeks at least anyway.
I dive Poseidon Cyklons so that stuff doesn't concern me much.

£80 is about the norm for most LDS's to do a complete reg set. Why do you think alot of us only do it every 2-3 years? We don't get free parts in the UK ( with the possible exception of Oceanic).
Some independants charge less, maybe £45 for the 3 items (depending on make).
Dive Equipe (Pete Church?) is midlands based, but I've not used him. Try a search on the yorkshire-divers forum.
