Around here there are back yard mechanics who are pretty good.
There sould be places that can do it cheaper. Those rates are shop rates. Ask around or put an ad in the wanted listings. There should be guys willing to do it for around $400 you paying for the gears oil etc. Some guys work by day at the shops and in the evenings at home. If you go this route I'd be asking a few questions first before just accepting him for thr job. Work experience etc.

Do most people take there JKs to a shop to regear even if they normally do most of all the other work/mods themselves? I am planning to regear my 2010 JKUR in the near future and was planning on doing it myself; it can't be that difficult...right?
