Is it 2 - 2.5K for gearbox to be sorted and TC or is a TC on top of the 2-2.5k?

I paid £1,200 + VAT at Preston transmissions.
This was for recon T/C, 6 new accumulators, new stator bush, flush and new metal filter.

As I have stated previously it is a worn bush that causes the TC to fail, if cought early the GB just needs a new bush and seal.
The £2-2.5k I have mentioned is for: new oil, metal sump and filter, recon TC, GB input shaft bush, seal and VAT. The point I'm making is it is false economy to simply just fit a reconditioned TC. There are people out there who are prepared to fit a new TC without even changing the oil, simply to keep the price down to get the work as 70% of the cost is labour.
There are three different types of TC fitted to D3's, depending on which is fitted can have an effect on how long the job takes It can when others can't,
It will when others won't,
It goes where others don't.
