In my experience in the last two years
IDA: $800-1200

IDS: $1600-1800, or perhaps up to $3,000 if completely refurbished
a big difference for the simlpe kludge of dumping more fuel in at high RMPs - carbs are very rare

Rebuild kits are cheap -
common situation is vacuum leaks from wear on the throttle shaft bearings

My choice for a refubish (new bearings , rebuild, all passages cleared
$1725 and up:
