Alterations Cost?

How much did you all pay for your alterations and what all did you get for that price?

I am worried I am getting overcharged. I got quoted like 350 for a french bustle and taking in the top.

    how much beading/ lace do you have on the top?

    what style of dress is it? lace back? or fitted?

    A lot of beading on top and it is a corset back. That is costing like 115.

    They are charging me 220 for the bustle. She said it is because it has 15 points...

    Acceptable or expensive?

    That sounds a little expensive. I had my alterations done in California, but it was about $10/bustle point, $80 to alter the length without beading changes, and $20 to have cups sewn in. However, my bustle was a simple one and not a french, so that might be the reason for the difference.
