I am on good terms with my Saab mechanic, and as bearings are a DIY job that he does not like to do given he can make more money with tranny rebuilds, If I DIY he presses 'em for free. At my local family owned parts shoppe that I have used for 2 decades, they will do it for free if not busy and 10 if they are, but I have used them almost exclussively for so long that they know be by name and we all hang out at times.
In Canada, I am also on great terms with my local GM goodwrench shoppe, so they do it for really cheap.
If you don't know 'em, I don't think you should spend more than $25 per side.
The moral of the story, get to know your suppliers and mechanics on a friendly basis. They are usually great guys and will usually help out in a pinch.
