Default Another Window Warranty

I know there have been several posts regarding the cost of labor for window replacements under warranty but don't remember any of them from the southern homes. I thought I had 3 windows with leaking seals and called the warranty department who then had me call Romac as the were the contractor that installed the windows which I believe are C&W. They said they would send someone out to give an estimate on the installation which I though was a little strange as I had had read here that it was something like $150 for 3 windows but so be it. They could not come out for a few weeks so i decided to wash all of my windows and found that there was a total of 7 bad ones. They showed up and told me it will cost $727.00 and I assume plus tax to replace the bad packs. I was surprised and asked what happened to the $150 for 3 windows and he said we never charged that and this is our price do you want them repaired or not. In addition, they charge me $50.00 just to come out and measure the windows. I can't help but feel that they are profiting from the warranty coverage as there is no way it would take over $700 worth of labor to replace those bad packs, these are double hung windows and not very large.
