I don't think I'm totally out to lunch, and I'm just asking about what other have paid.

Maybe I'll edit out "gouge" for less triggering purposes.

"Not today" = very busy time of year for seasonal swaps...

Is $75 a little high? Maybe.
Does it seem like a gouge? Maybe.
Can I see why, at this time of year, a shop would want to charge $75 to change a single tire that was purchased somewhere else. Yep.

For the reasons Sliver listed, it's better business for a shop to do a full swap, especially for a customer that just bought 4 new tires from them.
