what kind of labor charge is fair?

[twolves90]

Hello!

I have agreed to build 3 new computers for a local client.

The computers are no more than $600 each.

I estimate that putting all 3 together and loading Windows, Drivers, etc wouldn't take more than 6 hours at most

What type of labor charge is fair for he and I?

I was thinking possibly 75-100 per computer

Is this too much? Is this too little?

ANY Advice is very much appreciated!

Thank you!

I charge usually $50 per computer as long as its a new system and no file transferring involved from old system. Customers tell me i'm charging too little and they always pay me more than what I asked for. And as far as the time it takes to build it and install OS and any misc. drivers is usually no more than an hour and a half.

Depends, when we payed to have one built we had a 75$ labor charge plus over-payed for all the hardware. But the wiring they did was great, not perfect however. Depends on the quality of the work really.
