He did get a fair deal. He didn't get taken and you didn't get rich....but..you called him your neighbor, you didn't call him your friend as others here have inferred. I have a good friend that I do things for, mechanic work mostly, and he helps me, tractor work/hauling mostly. We never charge each other, and we are always doing something to help the other one. Both of us usually offer to pay the other and usually ask "how much do I owe you" knowing what the answer is going to be. "nothing, I may need a favor sometime". My point is that there is a difference between helping a friend and helping someone you know (neighbor) that tends to expect it. If he is a friend in the true sense of the word he would have offered to pay your expenses, up to you whether to accept payment or not. If it had been me I would have asked up front what you would have charged, he should have too. I saw a bumper sticker the other day, it sorta applies here:
YES THIS IS MY TRUCK,NO I WON'T HELP YOU MOVE!!!! You did the right thing by helping him, he should have at least offered to pay you, without being "charged". JMHO
