As a side note, Melon paid $75 to fix her ass, something she didn't seem overly attached to.
She's already thinking of the robo-dick as a pet and is showing attachment. For her, she probably got her money's worth, and isn't likely to bad-mouth the shop.
Perfectly Reasonable:
Given Faye's fondness for snark, she could have been much cruder --- I'd say this was subtle, for her.
And if she had wanted to be exploitive, she could have spun Melon a tale out of moonbeams and fairy dust.
So we are left with arguing about whether $100 was a fair fee for a few moments of expert consultation.
Didn't Scotty once say, "Never make it look easy"? (Well, he should have)

I bet that's what O'Brien whispers to himself alone in the teleporter control room.

Does she, though? We don't see her interacting with co-workers or a boss, or depositing any paychecks. I'm more inclined to believe that Melon knows that "jobs" are things that humans do all day, and that her Cloudcuckoolander brain somehow led her to the conclusion that laying on a floor with snakes and rats was a perfectly normal thing to do with one's time.
And it's always possible that Melon is on a financial support program.

She knows how to be friendly, sure, but her memory is also indicated as being pretty spotty (she forgot that she told Arthur she had a new favorite "meal", for instance), and we know nothing about how reliable she is as a roommate or how helpful she would be if Arthur had a crisis.
--- Quote ---and decide whether something is of reasonable value to her (see her complaining about the $75 ass repair)
--- End quote ---
She never complained that $75 was too expensive. She was under the misconception that Faye was doing an act of charity, and was frustrated that she misread the situation (and
also felt inconvenienced because she didn't have her wallet on her).
Honestly, trying to get a read on Melon at this point is about as fruitful as trying to find the correct answer to a Rorschach test. Everyone is going to see something different.
