How much should I expect to pay for windshield chip repair?

I have a nickel-sized star in my windshield. I have had a hard time finding out how much would be typical cost to fix this without insurance. A local independent guy said $45- that seemed high to me; I thought I remembered a friend paying $25 for his job a year or two ago.

Thanks!
 
25-45 isnt bad if it saves you a new windshield man. Tell him you can get it for 25 bucks in indy and see if he price matches it.
 
Depends on how bad it is. Around here they charge 10$ for each time they have to drill and fill. If its a small chip then it only takes one, some will take 3 or so.
 
Manimal- Will do. I'm down in Metamora for a festival this weekend, but maybe the next.

Insurance: I only have liability at this time- I know Geico does free glass repair (probably saves them a bundle on swindles) but probably not for el-cheapo folks like me.

I got it done tonight. $45 it was- the owner was pretty dismissive of a pricematch, said I was getting a deal as it was. His tech did fine work, though.
 
Your insurance company may pay for it at no cost to you - worth looking into.

I was gonna post this too. Wish I knew earlier. Paid for one once years ago, but found out in time for the more recent time.
 
I called Geico just to make sure- it's a comprehensive policy only benefit like I thought. They waive the deductible.
