However, I think that the prime consideration is labour costs. At least here in Australia, the cameras and the manual focus lenses sell for around one third (on the Bay) of the cost of a CLA for either.

All to a man told me good luck and no thanks. Nikon would not even take a look at it, even for a CLA.
