If the settings were done by a real ISF certified guy, they should be close, unless the room lighting is WAY different. Most are set for dark or semi-dark rooms. Yes, $300 sounds about right. This requires a lot of expensive equipment, and several hours of time. I have several calibrating discs including VE, and the numbers I got from AVS are much more nuanced and detailed than I could ever get from them. The discs will only go so far.
But, as they say, YMMV.

...means they adjust color, tint, sharpness, contrast, and brightness. All stuff the user should be able to do with a little patience, even without a disc. A true ISF calibration means getting "behind the scene" to the set-up menu. This is inaccessible to guys like us without Panasonic's access code. If one does manage to get in, without the proper understanding and equipment, things could REALLY get messed up!
BB does a standard ISF calibration via the set's Service Menu. And they have the proper gear to do a proper calibration...They would NOT be able to call it an ISF calibration if they didn't do so.

Please read the last four words of my subject line. I read several posts on the AVS forum and they all said BB's procedure was as I stated. Now if that's not correct, then good for BB. If they do a real ISF calibration for $300, then that's fair and I have no problem being set straight.
