That's insane. i recently supplied wheels and tires to a tire shop for mount/balance, and told them they'd have to swap the TPMS sensors over from the current set. They didn't charge anything extra for it. Seeing your $800 quote for this makes me a little less miffed that they lost the Audi valve caps on the Q5 recently...
Anyways, looks like I'm the only one so far who didn't vote DIY. I don't go to a shop for everything...but for the majority of problems I just don't want to deal with it anymore. I've swapped engines and subframes and coilovers and driveshafts and just about every major maintenance item when I was in high school and I mostly hated every minute of it. Now, for most things, I'll gladly pay a shop while I enjoy my free time. I'm more than content with knowing how to fix things and choosing not to.
