Its worth giving it a shot yourself. A rear mech of that spec online should be less than 30, after that youtube is your friend!! Lots of tutorials on there. Rear mechs have an awful reputation for being difficult, but theres really no black magic involved, its pretty simple really once you have the proper giudelines.

That video has all you need to know.

Otherwise, if you dont fancy doing it yourself it shouldnt cost more than 40-50 quid all in. Any more than that and the bike shop are overcharging in my opinion.
