I told him my budget was 500-600 MAX and he didnt call to tell me when it was gonna amount to more than that.

I would always recommend against telling the person doing work for you how much your budget is. This can cause many problems such as if the mechanic finds it difficult to remain under your budget, he/she may choose some cheaper repair options. I once needed a new master and slave cylinder for my clutch, and the prick fitted a new master and a 'recond.' slave to keep the job under my budget. The slave cylinder went in like 5 months!. Also if the job is easier than you think, they may take their time to clock up some more money, closer to your budget. Therefore you think they may have done ok, but they really ripped you.
Instead ask him/her for a quote, if your not happy, shop around!
