It's possible that a corroded spot on the condenser blew out under the pressure of hot refrigerant, yet was air tight with only vacuum on the system.
I would replace the condenser myself, rent / buy a vacuum pump and gauge set to recharge it myself. Would cost less than paying to get the job done and them you have the tools for the next "do it yourself" AC repair job.
You may have lost most of the refrigerant oil through the leak, so I would add atleast 4 oz of the correct oil(Ester ?) through those neat little interdynamics "oil charge" cans sold at most auto parts stores
I have maybe $250-$300 in a used vacuum pump, a cheap gauge set,leak sniffer, can tappers, a vent thermometer and a "how to do AC repairs" book. Have done all my AC work on a fleet of cars, pickups and farm equippment for the last 30 years. Saved myself many thousand dollars and got it done when I needed it.
