On a full carbon fork the crown race can be a real pain to fit, and cutting a carbon steerer is a bit more involved and expensive than cutting an alu steerer. So £15-25 would be a reasonable price range. Installing a headset on carbon frame and fork is also a bit trickier, but same price range.
Seems they were either taking the mickey or they didn’t want to do the service.
