I’m a former sysadmin (10 years) with 1 year spent working as cellphone repair prior to that. I could bang out batteries all day long for replacing. It’s not rocket science.
Save your money. $10 doesn’t even cover my morning coffee.
You misrepresent the time, tools and knowledge needed to do those repairs.
"10 minutes and some basic repair knowledge" is still misleading even if you are a former sysadmin of 10 years.
Enjoy your overpriced coffee!
