dealer tunings

I usually do a flat rate for 1.5 hours of work.  If I can do a 
pitchraise and final tuning in that time then I dont raise my charge. If 
I can get the tuning done and have time left over for other matters, 
then I pay attention to those.

I always found it easier to justify raising my charge if I actually 
needed more time to finish any given job.
