On the subject of cost of a/c repairs. Any reputable shop will want to replace all major long term maintenance components on a 15 year old car. Items like expansion valve, dryer, hoses, o-rings. They don't want you back at the shop a week later and have them fix it for free again, if some other thing goes. This is why a pro shop a/c repair is always $1500 and you really can't blame them. And this is also why the ad is BS - if it was just a refill, it could be done for $200. It probably wouldn't stay in there long enough to sell the car.
