Last time I needed my tefillin checked/fixed I did by Oraita (Gad Sebagh). I was very happy with them.it's on kingston above Mermelstein's.
Does he fix/paint batim as well?
I don't remember for sure, it was almost a year ago...IIRC (Don't quote me on it) it was $35 a pair to check & I don't remember how much for some minor fixes but I remember it was very reasonable.
Hamefitz has a special: $48 (instead of $60) for checking. Should I assume that's for one pair?
Probably.So I wonder if that means my $35 figure is off... (I do seem to remember that it cost less then I expected so I'm not sure...)
I think it's probably for one pair, but they want you to think it might be for two, shame on them for not specifying.
so ask!!!What happened to dan licaf zchus??
I take it you don't live in Crown Heights...
nope.
