Lab is perfectly ok and it will do the job for these money. But I am from the eastern world.
We have no resources and good economy and we are thought from kids to repair things.
So when your washing machine broke you will throw it and get new one but here
we will repair it and use it another 10 years or even more. My grandmother still uses her old
washing machine and it is over 50 years old !!! Still working and still do her job.
If you have extra resources and money you will never do that but pay $3200 for the disk repair.
The same is with the bulbs. We have tech to produce bulbs working all life but we does not do it.
Old eastern world produces bulbs still works from over 40 years

I urge everyone who is not scared and can risk his information to learn, be patient, experiment
and when someone says that this is impossible ... just to get more energy from these words and
make it happen.
I am from Romania. And I know what you mean about resources and how more or less have to make it work one way or another with basically little to nothing. Overall, I agree with your comment, however it all depends on how someone values their time. If you have all the time in the world, then sure, a little bit here and there, in weeks, months, may be able to achieve something concerning data recovery. Otherwise, there is a whole different story.
Forgot something: in that part of the world, like many other ones throughout the world, one may not pay for something with money. Rather, they pay with work, merchandise exchange, favors, etc. All in all, still more value than $100. It does not seem like a $100 worth of value, because the people have basically commoditized the "work" out of necessity quite heavily just to be able to resolve whatever situation they may be dealing with.
For example, in that part of the world, for a tough data recovery job, I would ask for at least a live pig and hen.
