Greetings, 
   It depends on how much you charge for your labor.   This may be the 
difference between a $75/hr. rebuilder with no markup  and a $35/hr person 
that marks up  100%.  
    If you are ordering a bench for someone, you have to charge more than it 
costs you or you will lose money on every sale.  Technician's can be 
merchants, also!
