You can't get a straight answer because they won't really know until they cut it open. If it doesn't lock up because the tcc is just worn then it might be cheap, but if the damper springs broke apart and ate everything up it's a different story. If they give you a worse case price it might scare you away, but if they give you a cut and clean price then call you back telling you it's going to be triple that you're going to be pissed.
