It probably just needs a new diaphram. That's why they always recommend you loosen the adjuster all the way off when not using the torch. Keeping continuous pressure on the diaphram causes them to fail a lot quicker. It's also important to open the cylinder slowly so you don't wreck the gauges. I'd see if there's a local place that does repairs and get an estimate. Even if it's sent out, ask for an estimate to see if it's worth fixing. What brand of regulator is it? A good name brand regulator will cost a lot more than $50.
To me $50 seems pretty reasonable with lots of shops charging close to $100/hr labour. To put it in perspective, how much will you do for $50? Anytime I've needed a lawyer, it's cost a couple hundred bucks just to write a simple letter. No offence intended. It just seems odd a lawyer would question a rather small repair bill.
