$15?????????????????
Includes scalp massage or maybe dinner?
Fifteen Bucks???

I want to hang out at your LBS if they throw in scalp massages with the
replacement of a tube.

Yeah, $15 sounds about right -- $5 for the tube, $10 for labor. You might
think $10 is a lot for labor, but they usually drop everything else they're
doing to replace the tube, so there's a level of hassle factor for them.
