If it's just 1 fork seal it shouldn't be more than $100. I get mx bike seals done for $60/side.
actually it's kind of a good quality fork with quite expensive parts, and the job takes around 1h-1h30 to do. So for me, 100-150 is nothing to pay for piece+ work when you think that you don't have to disasemble your front end yourself and grease your hands etc etc.
Also, I work in wind turbine all day long, clearing electric fault, greasing my hands on bearings and being in weird positions, so I really appreciate when someone can do some work for me , for example, on my bike

i hope it's not the same shop that told you the seals were fine to begin with.
nah, at a way wayyy better place where the mechanic is himself doing some downhill rides and knows what he talk about

I've never done a bike but i have better uses for my time than doing motorcycle fork seals.

pussy, they dont take long at all.
but i guess when you revalve shocks and fuck with them like weekly you get good at it
My time > $
I KNOW I could do them myself, but it would take time, I have better places to spend this time at and read above for why I don't feel like getting greasy on the evening
