For $135 and no leaks, good nights sleep, worth every penny. Yes you can buy a decent new unit for $150. However even if you do it yourself, you need a new wax ring, maybe a new connection hose, $20, a trip to Home Depot where you will spend another $50 on things you don't need, another hour of your time, swearing, lifting, (they are heavy), and not to mention placing the old unit out by the trash and dealing with all the comments. $25 worth of pain pills for the aching back, band aids for the scraped knuckles, and a missed round of golf where you would have won $10 from your friends. So really total cost is about $250.
So yes $135 is very cheap and well worth the piece of mind.
