Yikes!! Isn't this something you could do yourself? How expensive is a VSS? 
A trip to a shop with an otherwise operational car is inviting a mechanic to tell a tale about how badly you've blown your tanny! 
Normally what you say is true...sad to say.  I *have* found a reputable shop (B&N Transmission in Ottawa).  True to their reputation, their diagnosis turned up a faulty VSS and I'm back on the road with everything working correctly for about $240 (Cdn) including taxes and labour. Incidentally, the part was only $72.
No question that with the help of the advice on this group as well as a scan through the archives that I've saved a few $$. How much is hard to say but clearly it made the diagnosis a lot easier.
