Most of the online repair shops I know of charge $40- $50 for simple repairs. For less than that price I can usually get a new pair of titanium frames with coated or tinted bifocal prescription lenses.
Most repair shops will replace the entire temple piece rather than just the plastic tips. They usually have a good supply of spare parts from non-repairable frames. My personal spare parts collection includes about 50 junk frames I've picked up dirt cheap over the years, at thrift stores and garage sales and the like.
