[OM] Repair cost

My 14-54 took a knock to the front which has caused a little more play
in the front element than it used to have. I could at this point grumble
about 'er indoors not being careful, but I have to just take it as
learning the expensive way that I should be using a non-slip shoulder
strap.  I think this has caused some variation in focus as some tripod
mounted shots are a very slightly softer than others. Olympus UK say
their charge for repairing this lens is a flat rate £105, no matter what
the problem is. Seems that the one cost fits all would lead to
considerable over and under-charging depending on what the problem is -
works for the repairer, but not 50% of the consumers. Has anyone else
had to pay for repair on this lens anywhere in the world?
