Are you buying from a retailer? If so, they should supply the setup. If buying used it could be that it only needs a truss rod adjustment and possibly nut and/or saddle height adjustments. An honest luthier or tech wouldn't charge more than $30 or $40 max. I've done several of my own, but wouldn't be comfortable doing it for someone else, nor would I expect you to trust a stranger with your new prized possession. Good luck.
