PA Speedo likely has massive overhead costs compared to MoMa. After
all, they're in downtown Palo Alto, not far from Facebook and other tech
firm HQs (unless they've moved to, oh, Manteca, but kept the name).
I had a really good tire/wheel guy--'Palo Alto Wheel and Brake' IIRC, a
second-generation shop--who was run out of town because PA didn't want
one of those grimy, blue-collar-type businesses in their swanky
neighborhood (he moved to Mountain View, but eventually went out of
business).  I'm surprised Antonio's Nut House--named, in part, for the
peanut shells on the floor--has survived, but I hear dive bars are all
the rage with tech bros/sisters these days (same for Fred's in MV, but I
hear it's gotten less divey).
Either shop will do a good job.

I have been getting quotes for the repair of my Bugeye tachometer
that froze up. So far only two quotes, but they are way off from
each other. MoMa quoted $175. I thought that quote was not bad,
but I was in shock when Palo Alto Speedometer quoted $375!Â
Usually I don't let price alone determine who I do business with,
but in this case it may just be the determining factor.
