Yeah, 650$ sounds like too much if you have runs in the paint. Did you buy the paint or did he? Did you remove and mask the wheels or did he? Did you reassemble everything or did he?

If he used a really good quality paint system (which I am doubting he did) you could easily have over $300 just in paint. I've painted quite a few tractors and it is hard work. As others pointed out the prep work is the hard part. Don't get me wrong the painting part is no picnic either. If you take your time and do a good job it can be very time consuming. Bottom line is it sounds like too much for the job he did. I would insist that he fix the runs. If he has any idea what he is doing it is not that difficult.
