This is why a lot of cars on Nigerian roads are not well angry Peeps are not willing to spend good money for a good repair job. Labour in civilised economies is very expensive. This why a lot of Americans are DIY guys. In UK you dont bother repairing shoes; most times the amount the cobbler charges will buy you a new shoe.

I have been doing my own repair including suspension and AC work and can tell you that a good repair takes resources; mental exertion, internet, investment in equipment and shop manuals etc.

I wonder what would happen if air planes were repaired with the same mentality we have for cars in Nigeria.

My point in all this, labour is expensive because it costs a lot to do a good job. What a man decides to set as reward for doing a certain task is really up to him.
