Do yourself a favour and ask them how much for a new clutch pressure plate & dual mass flywheel. While you are paying for the labour to have the transmission removed you may as well have a new clutch etc fitted.
When my IMS was replaced the old clutch felt fine, however, upon removal it was cactus. The new clutch assy felt much better and also had a lighter action.
Typically clutch, p plate, flywheel and bearing assemblies cost about $2000.
This will bring your cost almost inline with Bob Whyms.
So compare the two and ask PRT how many have they done.
Also, what year is your vehicle? Single or dual bearing?
