It's not. Just enjoy it. Just for the heck of it, though, look into
what it would take to do it yourself if you're interested. I've found
that the offroading hobby involves a lot of "breakage" and that
sometimes fixing the stuff myself is kinda therapeutic. Plus it's a
good excuse to buy more tools. ;-) Good luck with your future
breaks/fixes. Oh, and for what it's worth I don't really think you
got ripped off.

Thanks for taking the time to itemize these costs for me. I screwed up
and that's all there is to it.
I won't go back there again, ever.
Nothing else I can do now.

It's kind of like on the job training, you're fifties miles from no
where and a wheel falls off.

Re: did I get ripped off on this brake job?
You could picket his business. Stand in front of his business with a sign
telling how you got ripped off. Or put a sign in your car window
advertising the business as a rip off and let them know about it.
First though you could complain about the price even though it's paid and
see if there's any response.
I heard tell of one guy putting a sign in the back of his car and on side
windows when he got ripped off with a cell phone deal or something to that
effect. The issue got resolved right quickly.
