In general, I don't think $100 is a lot to properly clean and service a vintage machine. If it's the same service your average shop is going to give it then it's high. If it's a full on cleaning like what most of us do, it's hours of work.

And that's on top of tensioner rebuilds, clearing 40 years of thread from behind the bobbin base, etc.
