I've been in the position of your "old aquaintence" numerous times; I usually just do it for free and charge it up to friendship/being a good neighbor. Mostly, they are older people who are somewhat out of touch with current prices/expenses; they would be highly offendly if I charged what the job is truly worth and I'd rather do it for free than charge them 10 or 20 cents on the dollar. If I charge the reduced rate, they think I'm well paid and don't mind asking again and again; if it's for free, they're hesitant to ask numerous times........I doubt that your friend would drag his equipment over to your place for less than $100.....even if it was only a 5 minute job, if it was strictly business.
