Default How much did you pay to have your heads milled?

I live in a relatively rural area that's largely devoid of any modern performance shops, so I'm curious to know what the going rate is to have a new set of heads milled. If it matters, I'm planning to have .024" removed. I realize this is largely variable, but I'm just hoping to get a ballpark figure.

Thanks,
Josh

Default milling

Should be an easy job, right?

The heads, when bare, can be placed flat on the machine and no adjustments, other than depth cut and feeds/speeds, should be necessary.
